    Tomo was elected as a member of Gerakan Rakyat Baru (New People’s Movement) sponsored
    by Japan. After that he voiced his oration which ignited the spirit of the people to fight for
    Indonesia’s independence. Since October 12, 1945, Bung Tomo has led the Barisan
    Pemberontak Rakyat Indonesia (Indonesian people’s rebels) or BPRI in Surabaya. Altough in
