JAKARTA - Deputy Chairman of the Indonesian People's Consultative Assembly (MPR RI) Hidayat Nur Wahid (HNW) stated the importance of quality families to produce national fighters in Indonesia.

"It is important for a quality family to produce a golden generation that will realize Indonesia Gold 2024," Hidayat said as quoted by Antara, Sunday.

This affirmation was conveyed by HNW when he was a keynote speaker at the third Indonesian Family Congress activity, which was held by the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) at the Parliament Complex, Senayan, Jakarta, Saturday.

He reminded about Indonesia's independence in 1945 which was initiated by the golden generation at that time, with the implementation of the 1928 Youth Pledge.

"We have treaded a historical period that is very important to underline, that presenting national fighters through their families, has actually been exemplified by the father and mother of the nation," he explained.

He said, the fathers and mothers of the nation have set an example that being a nation's fighter, fighting for Indonesia's independence, has not made their families a mess. Families even become the main supporters who help their struggle.

This, said HNW, can be repeated to give birth to a generation of fighters who will realize Indonesia Gold 2045.

"History is repetition. This means that if it was possible in the past, it would still be possible later," he said.

In addition, HNW also emphasized the importance of collaboration from all elements of the nation to produce quality families. He hopes that forums like this can continue to be implemented to prepare demographic bonuses.

"This cross-ormas, cross-religious, cross-gender collaboration is to be able to bring quality families to welcome Indonesia Gold through saving the 2045 demographic bonus," he ordered.
