The Passage is for number 6-8
The Proclamation of Indonesian Independence was read at 10.00 a.m. on
Friday, 17 August 1945. The document was signed by Sukarno and Mohammad
Hatta, who were appointed president and vice-president respectively the following
day. The draft was prepared only a few hours earlier on the night of 16 August 1945
by Sukarno, Hatta, and Soebardjo, at the house of Rear-Admiral Tadashi Maeda.
The wording of the proclamation had been discussed at length and had to
balance both conflicting internal Indonesian and Japanese interests. Sukarno
drafted the final proclamation which balanced the interests of both the members
of the youth movement and the Japanese. The term ‘TRANSFER OF POWER’ was
used in Indonesian to satisfy Japanese interests to appear that it was an
administrative transfer of power, although the term used ‘pemindahan kekuasaan’
could be perceived to mean political power. The wording ‘BY CAREFUL MEANS’
related to preventing conflict with members of the youth movement. The wording
‘IN THE SHORTEST POSSIBLE TIME’ was used to meet the needs of all Indonesians
for independence.
Initially the proclamation was to be announced at Djakarta central square,
but the military had been sent to monitor the area, so the venue was changed to
Sukarno's house at Pegangsaan Timur 56. The proclamation was heard throughout
the country because the text was secretly broadcast by Indonesian radio personnel
using the transmitters of the Jakarta Broadcasting Station.
7. The following statements are not true based on the text, except …
a The draft of the Proclamation of Indonesian Independence was arranged in

b The Proclamation was announced at the house of Rear-Admiral, Tadashi
Maeda
c Transfer of Power terminology was aimed neither to satisfy Japanese
interests for an
administrative transfer of power, nor meant to be political power

representative of youth
