Ladies and gentleman,

In this opportunity, allow me to stand in front of you to deliver my speech about

”Reflecting On The Struggle of the Nations Heroes”

Today, on August 17th 2023, our country celebrates the 78 th anniversary of

Independence Day. Every year, on August 17 th our country celebrates the ceremony of
Independence Day. Do you still remember the names of the heroes who helped to
released Indonesia from colonialsm? One of them is Bung Karno.

Do you know who is Bung Karno? Bung Karno is the first President of Indonesia. He is
the important figure in the struggle of the Indonesia people to achieve Independency.
He was the Proclaimer of Indonesia Independence. Soekarno was also the first person
to Introduce the concept of Pancasila as the foundation of the Indonesia.
Brother and sisters,

Remembering how the efforts of our heroes to fight for our Independency. It’s right for
us to appreciate the Independence Day by doing something positive. The spirit and the
high sense of nationalism can be realized in many ways.

The most important thing for us as the students is to study well and not being lazy. As
the students, we have been facilitated by various technologies and internet. It can bring
positive and negative impact for us. The positive impacts are, we can get a lot of
knowledge and information. We can learn many things from the internet such as history
lesson, biology, math and others. However, it can also negative impact such as playing
games and social media too long. So, let us be the useful generation for the nation.
Competitive, active and imaginative generation. So we can give pride to our nation, and
our nation can be proud with us.

Ladies and gentleman,

I think that’s all of my speech. I hope that my speech can be
useful for us. Hopefully this year, Indonesia will always grow
better. Thank you very much for your attention.
