A long time ago, very few people lived in the New Territories. There were only a few villages.
If the people wanted to go from one village to another, they often had to pass through wild and
unsafe forest.
One day, a farmer’s young wife went to the next village to visit her own mother and brother.
She brought along her baby son. When it was time for her to leave, her brother said “ it is
getting dark. Let my son, Ah Tim go with you though the forest.”
So Ah Tim led the way and the young woman followed behind, carrying her baby. When they
were in the forest, suddenly they saw a group of wolves. They began to run to avoid the danger,
but Ah Tim kicked against a stone and fell down. At once the wolves caught him. The young
woman cried to the wolves, “ please eat my own son instead.” Then, she put her baby son on the
ground in front of the wolves and took her nephew away. Everyone understood that this was
because the woman was very good and kind. She had offered her own son’s life to save her
nephew.

The Battle of Surabaya was fought between pro-independence Indonesian soldiers and militia
against British and British Indian troops as a part of the Indonesian National Revolution.
The peak of the battle was in November 1945. The battle was the heaviest single battle of the
revolution and became a national symbol of Indonesian resistance. Fighting broke out on 30
October after the British commander, Brigadier A. W. S. Mallaby was killed in a skirmish.
Although the Colonial forces largely captured the city in three days, the poorly armed
Republicans fought for three weeks, and thousands died as the population fled to the
countryside.
The battle and defense mounted by the Indonesians galvanized the nation in support of
independence and helped garner international attention. For the Dutch, it removed any doubt
that the Republic was not simply a gang of collaborators without popular support. It also had
the effect of convincing Britain that wisdom lay on the side of neutrality in the revolution;
within a few years, in fact, Britain would support the Republican cause in the United Nations.

international support for Indonesian independence. 10 November is celebrated annually as

By the following day it had conquered the city of Yogyakarta, the location of the temporary
Republican capital. By the end of December, all major Republican held cities in Java and
Sumatra were in Dutch hands.
The Republican President, Vice-President, and all but six Republic of Indonesia ministers were
captured by Dutch troops and exiled on Bangka Island off the east coast of Sumatra.
In areas surrounding Yogyakarta and Surakarta, Republican forces refused to surrender and
continued to wage a guerrilla war under the leadership of Republican military chief of staff
General Sudirman who had escaped the Dutch offensives. An emergency Republican
government, was established in West Sumatra.
On March 1, 1949 at 6 am, Republican forces launched March 1 General Offensive. The
Offensive caught the Dutch by surprise. For his part, Hamengkubuwono IX allowed his palace to
be used as a hide out for the troops. For 6 hours, the Indonesian troops had control of
Yogyakarta before finally retreating.
