Mohammad Hatta -- unlike most politicians of our era -- was a man of high principles, who devoted most of his life to the service of his country, personally benefiting little, and enduring much. Deliar Noer has special qualifications to write Mohammad Hatta's biography. He is a fellow Sumatran who, in the 1950s as a student, was a member of a group that met once a week with the Vice-President. Afterwards Noer attended Cornell University where he received his M.A. and Ph.D. degrees. He has since become a prolific author with special expertise on the modernist Muslim movement in Indonesia.

Mohammad Hatta

Mohammad Hatta (listen (help·info);12 August 1902 – 14 March 1980) was Indonesia's first Vice President of Indonesia, later also being the country's Prime Minister. He fought for the independence of Indonesia from the Dutch.[1]

As a young man, he visited the Netherlands (where the Dutch are from) and argued for Indonesian independence from the Dutch. Later, he helped publish a magazine called Indonesia Merdeka (which means Free Indonesia).[2]

When he returned to Indonesia, the Japanese invaded. He hope that they would support Indonesian independence and collaborated with them.[3] However, he was disappointed when it became clear that they too wanted to colonize Indonesia.

After the Japanese left, he joined Sukarno in declaring independence. He was Indonesia's first Vice President while Sukarno was president.

Hatta died on 14 March 1980 in Jakarta and was buried in Jakarta's Tanah Kusir public cemetery.
