Prince Antasari
Prince Antasari (Banjar Sultanate, 1809- October 11, 1862) is a National Hero. He is known for his heroic war against the Dutch known as Perang Banjar (Banjar War). The war began when Prince Antasari and his 300 soldiers attacked the Dutch coal mine in Pengaron on April 25, 1859. After that, he led many attacks around Banjar Sultanate. The Dutch army, aided by more soldiers from Batavia, could supress Antasari's movement, to the point that Antasari had to move his defense fortress to Muara Teweh.
Many times, the Dutch persuaded Prince Antasari to surrender, but he remained on his attitude. This was written on his letter to Lieutenant Colonel Gustave Verspijk in Banjarmasin on July 20, 1861: "... We strictly explain to you that we don't agree to proposal of mercy and we fight continously·demanding our inheritance right (independence) ...."
The Dutch ever offered a gift of 10,000 guldens for anybody who could capture and kill the Prince. However until the war had finished, nobody dared to take the offer. Prince Antasari died surrounded by his soldiers because of lungs infection and smallpox during his struggle against the Dutch.
