The attack was aimed to show to the world that the republic still existed and did not surrender under The Dutch. General Sudirman, the leader of Indonesian army accepted the idea. In February, sultans held a meeting with Lieutenant Colonel Suharto in Jogjakarta. He was the man who was appointed by Sudirman to lead the attack. On 1 march 1949, at 6 am, the republican troops led by Suharto launched the general offensive. The Dutch surprised and they were not ready to face such massive attack. For 6 hours, Jogjakarta was controlled by the Indonesian army. The attack was a huge success because the world finally knew that the republic was still standing. 2.
