President Prabowo Subianto emphasized the importance of newly commissioned officers of the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) and National Police (Polri) setting the best example in their daily lives during the 2025 Oath-Taking and Commissioning Ceremony at the Merdeka Palace in Jakarta. He urged the young officers to truly understand and internalize the oath they had just taken, seeing it as a solemn commitment to serve the nation and its people. Prabowo stressed that the oath should not just be recited as a formality but lived out with integrity and readiness to sacrifice for the country. The President reminded the officers of the great responsibility they hold in safeguarding the nation’s sovereignty and the security of its people. Reflecting on Indonesia’s struggle for independence, Prabowo highlighted the need for strength and unity to face future challenges and threats. The nation’s history was built on sacrifice, and the officers must be prepared to serve, dedicate, and if necessary, make the ultimate sacrifice for the nation.
