JAKARTA - The name Maj. Gen. Dudung Abdurachman is the talk of many people. The Regional Commander of the Jaya Military Command or Pangdam Jayakarta admitted that he was the one who gave the order to remove a number of TNI members with the picture of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) Imam Rizieq Shihab. Did you know that little Dudung Abdurachman had many bitter experiences with the TNI?

Little Dudung was born from a simple family. Even as a child, Dudung had to step in to help make a living for the family by delivering his mother's merchandise.

"After you were gone, you sold cakes. Mother sold cakes, crackers still raw, shrimp paste, I had to find firewood near the house. Because we cook using firewood. I go around selling cakes," said Dudung, quoted from his interview with Kompas TV, Friday, November 20.

The cake is not only sold in the home environment. Dudung also delivers the merchandise to the Kodam 3 Siliwangi canteen on Jalan Aceh, Bandung City, West Java. The bad experience with TNI members started here.

The klepon cake that Dudung was carrying was once kicked by an enlisted man until it fell to the ground. Who would have thought, that sad experience would even make Dudung have the determination to become a TNI officer.

"So I took it to Kodam 3 Siliwangi. I took it to the canteen because I was used to it. Because the guard might be a new enlisted man, he didn't know it yet. Even though I delivered the cakes every day. He kicked the klepon. rolling-rolling. I asked the mother to be replaced again. "

"From there I started to get up. From there, watch out. I'll say. I'll be an officer later. That's where I started wanting to become an officer."

When he was in high school, Dudung also made a living by delivering newspapers. Every day he went to Cikapundung to pick up newspapers and deliver them to a number of customers. This was done by Dudung every morning before leaving for school.

"So I joined with the newspaper at that time. Pak Mulyono owned the newspaper. So I joined. At 3.30 WIB in the morning I went to Cikapundung to pick up the newspaper, then I delivered the newspapers."

"Before I deliver it to the customer, I read and read it first. After I know the development, I know the situation and all kinds of contents of the newspaper."

Dudung once again had a bad experience with the TNI when he was delivering newspapers. He was once "hit" by a TNI major because he was late delivering newspapers.

"There was a newspaper at that time I was late, until I was hit by the cavalry major. The newspaper fell, then it was a bit dirty. When I gave it, I got tabbed. That was an experience,"
