(The second part, Depok, August 6, 2014, 7:30 pm)

My father ever told me, if my grandfather Diran Wirotiyoso origin, Klaten, Central Java, My father ever told me that my grandfather had no insolence descendants of stumps Warlord Wulung (but not yet confirmed the truth of this story,

But clearly he was serving in the Royal Netherlands Army was called Colonial Army to the Marines' position and was first stationed in Muntilan, Central Java, exactly when these events occurred, said before the World War II in 1945.

My grandfather served in the Land Grogot, Paser  Regency, East Kalimantan, in the city where he met and paired with grandmother Mrs. Inah, the descendants of Dayak Pasir (Paser), from his second marriage they were blessed with two children, but my father's brother supposedly died Agusno since I was a toddler .

At the time of World War II Diran Wiryo Tiyoso which is a Marines sailed with Dutch subs ships, and  says  in sea battles with the Japanese army, marines Japanese submarine sunk in Australian waters.

When the communication is not as sophisticated now that my grandmother is still living in the Land Grogot confused where to find information about the news that her husband, who sailed with the Dutch submarine months and years but had no news about him.

Eventually he and his only child was (Agusno) who were aged five years attempting to Muntilan (Central Java) headquarters when the Dutch Marines. The legend says that the death of my grandfather information in Australian waters derived from the Dutch Marine Headquarters,

At the time my grandmother was about to return home to the Land of Grogot apparently when he got around Kebumen Army fighters battle between the army of the Republic of Indonesia to the Netherlands, so my grandmother who came running toward refugee camps teng running around lost her son, because regardless of the hand grip.

My father is still just crying toddler and fro looking for her mother who was lost. Finally, while holding my father hunger walk at approximately bumen and when he got there Gombong a father (his father's mother Purwanto) which we call grandfather Gombong '' takes '' my father to be saved from the wrath of the war, my father sehinnga live with his grandfather and grandmother Gombong it even had schooled until high school graduation (SMP).

When in 1970 I returned to visit my father's grandfather Gombong with Gombong it shows the former Dutch bullets pierce the walls of the kitchen and a lot of home remodeling that he did not deliberately let me get to watch the historic silent witness.

After my father graduated from junior high school home village wants to follow her mother who is said to have reached the ground Grogot, and the young father was about 17 years serving in the Army in the city of Aberdeen who then put to unity in Intendam (now Bekumdam / Command Supplies) until my father's pension is spent in this unity, which until retirement Peltu rank (Assistant First Lieutenant), because my father's failing schools Secapa (officer Candidate) in Cimahi, Bandung, suffering from severe heartburn (had a big exhaust with fresh blood), because the stomach has been seriously injured, not wonder about 1970 Cikini hospitalized for three months by doctor specialist in internal medicine Dr. Arifin.

While in Jakarta, my fifth grade elementary school still participate mrngantar father went to Jakarta, and deposited in Mr. Lieutenant Colonel Dumyati, lifting mates with my father while serving in Balikpapan, only Lt. Col. Dumyati succeed in school Secapa Cimahi, Bandung.

Having a healthy father returned to duty to Balikpapan. I went back to school routine trying to catch up already skipped knowingly subjects (Absent) for over three months.

My grandmother certainly memperoleil Sepeningal my grandfather's pension from the Dutch government each month is always taken at the beginning of the General Post Office, Klandasan, each willing to take the money retired not forget

My grandmother  carry  one grandson to take to the post office.

I still remember my grandmother retired after taking the money market always stopped in the middle of a new village for shopping groceries (rice, white sugar, salted fish) for approximately carried forth in the Sungai Wain forest, in addition to buy snacks for souvenirs grandson, sometimes buy satai chicken, sometimes buy Martabak sweet (if in Balikpapan  known as the Light of the Moon).

On March 1, 1973 my father decided to Move Into Jakarta, and to sell his house in the village of Central New Rp 1.3 million and we boarded the plane Dakota Bouraq, the seat is still a tarp, I still remember the plane landing at Kemayoran Airport is practical from Balikpapan only dominated My father, mother and nine children. When was the youngest still breastfeeding Bambang Widodo (few months old).

In Kemayoran Airport Lt. Col. Dumyati and his wife and son had to pick up the hire car our family crib that children sit in the box with some crates preformance made ​​that brought much of the furniture to be brought to the Inn Jaya I, Djatinegara, when the Lt. Dumyati with the tingal officer of another entity at this Inn before getting a new residence in Jakarta. Three months later we moved to a dormitory Kobekdam V Jaya in Small Cililitan (now behind Cililitan Wholesale Center (PGC).

As usual boarding soldier whose name certainly very small in size so that the house can be laid squad (with nine children, my father build the room level (attic) in the kitchen) that has an army palbet could fit six people, two rooms remaining at the bottom. Two years later The youngest child was born again into ten (Rev. Eko lane) she said she had given birth senyak 13 times, only three miscarriages, not surprising because the birth mother often forgetful disease (Alzaimer) is not surprising that until now she remains blind letters, because learning to read and recite always forget.

I put school in Jakarta Junior High School (SMP) 14 Djatinegara State, East Jakarta. After my father passed me to enter a Secondary Technical School (STM) STM Jaya I precisely located in the Central Jakarta Budi Utomo (STM School I is adjacent to Jakarta.

I went STM Jaya I, majors machine because it does not pass the entrance test STM Construction of four years in Rawamangun, East Jakarta

Maybe the condition of my father who had ten children with her ​​small salary soldier who can not afford college membiyai later if I choose High School (SMA). But I want my little hearts also feel like most college peers, so I secretly using my savings in a piggy bank of clay chicken-ayaman I broke the high school so that I could apply the Pancasila II, Djatinegara (afternoon school building is used for high school students Negeri 22 Jakarta Timur.

Incidentally Pancasila entered high school at 06 afternoon finishes at 10pm. In the afternoon of pukul12 noon to five o'clock I was still in school so I. STM Jaya every day leaving home early evening.

At the time I was sitting in class II SMA is no vacancy advertisement in the newspaper became servants Buana News, I signed up of course still menngunakan junior diploma. Luckily I never typing course in Caraka College (adjacent to the high school Pancasila II, incidentally dibutukan Savior Tik rank IB. Among thousands of applicants I passed the test, written test consists in the Main Stadium, Senayan, Jakarta, Test Typing interviews and skills tests.

After I graduated I was placed in the Directorate General of Higher Education Ministry of Education and Culture, Prof. Doed ministers held Joesoef, Director-General chaired by Prof. Doddy Tisna Amidjaja when it also serves as Rector of the Institute of Technology Bandung (ITB)

Because the removal process when the bi Servant reaches more than a year I had also completed high school and at the same STM. I was lucky because when there is a change school graduation from December to June, because energy is needed immediately STM many labor markets remain the final exam in December, while the SMA extended for six months so the final exam in June. So it is not surprising STLA exams (high school and STMku) is not the same as the final exam schedule is so performed the morning so I managed to graduate high school juruan Social Sciences (IPS), and STM Department of Engineering.

Until I graduated from high school placement Servants had not come so using the ITM Diploma I worked at a Subaru Car Repair sunter located in Kemayoran. Because public transport is not as much as now I always go pick up a car service are available on Lapangan Banteng (formerly Central Jakarta central bus terminal).

Three months later I began to receive letters of appointment of Civil Service, who was in a flag ceremony Prof.Dr.Daoed Joesoef announced that I was appointed the youngest Servants (about 18 years).

I was placed in the General Section, boss CST Kansil, SH, task of this section is to double the books for College / University throughout Indonesia.

For three years so I could take care of State employees increase my rank of IB to II A (High School Diploma adjustment) and got a lot of training administration.

In early 1982 I had the opportunity to lecture to the California State University (CSU), Fresno, California Department of Economics (Economics) after two years to return to Indonesia began working as a proofreader in Tempo Magazine Slamet men Jabarudi and S Prinka. I went with Edy Soetriono working as a Copy Editor. Forging Magazine offices still in Pasar Senen.

When that I was not alone as correctors Tempo news magazine, but also concurrently so Corrector manned Kun Age Magazine, writer Putu Widjaja and Danarto.

When the Antara News Agency reporters opening a new job, and I graduated around 1986 I through IV senyak Susdape training 13 people in training for six months.

For six years working as an Antara  reporter , there is one task that I can not forget until now, when I got the task to Muscat, Sultanate of Oman. From Indonesia just me who set the meet invitation, as Sinar Harapan senior journalist Arnie Berthasimamora absent participate. But the Kingdom of Oman under the sultan Al Qabus also invited reporters from other countries including Malaysia TV3 journalists, Reuters news agency of the UK, The Associated Press (AP) of the United States and many other media, in order to promote a vigorous Oman Tourism locations in the country, Sultan Qabus apart when it hosts the central mediator of Iran-Iraq war.

Before leaving for Oman I invited fellow  senior Antara Jourlalist  Imam Halilintar, that when it became Antara Bureau Chief in Saudi Arabia, I was invited Pilgrimage to Mecca, later until he Escort me from  Jeddah for Umrah in Mecca.

So I before leaving for Umrah visa ei Embassy of Saudi Arabia in Jakarta, Thank God I was given free as a journalist without a visa fee.

I was already preparing ihrom clothes (clothes hajj) relic-law Major Dimyati (on duty in the garrison Jakarta. He died while on a pilgrimage in Mecca, Mother in law stay home alone.

At that time Seagames Bangkok just ended, Anatara sports reporter who recently covered in the Bangkok office dk much talked about Bangkok, Pattaya and other tourist locations, including attractions Streaptease (stripper) which is visited by the foreign tourists.

Because the plane (Singapore Airlines) from Jakarta to Singapore, Bangkok, New Karachi to Muscat and vice versa then in my conscience I want to also look at the erotic dance in Bangkok.

Before I went to Oman I had to report to Direktuir PT Tambang Timah when it held Dr Kuntoro, eventually so I can buy an extra ticket Jeddah Muscat- commute, then he give me (can tip) money as much as Rp 500,000 given by the Director of Financial Erry Riyana Hardjapamengkas.

Up in Muscat, Oman on the second day as there is an order in my brain (mungkian temptation of Satan) when I was invited to the streets in the market muscat I even bought by Dates and hats and other Hajj, Umrah so I failed because it ran out of money to buy a ticket that when it was only $ 100 dollars Muscat to Jeddah PP.

Qabus bin Said Al Said

With deep regret I returned to Jakarta, stop in Bangkok from the rest of the money I've fallen  devil, see Streaptease in Bangkok.

That is why if you intend on pilgrimage or Umrah should be clean no other intentions though only in the liver. Now the 55-year-old I've been laid off several times due to stroke, diabetes and kidney, which despite having a Health Insurance card (JPPS) but for kidney drug patent (generic no need to pay hundreds  of dollars every month, because the cards bore JPPS only generic drugs only for five days. so as unemployed and much of this disease I just can lot of remembrance to Allah that I dimpuni all my sins that had a lot of this neglect.
