Mother's Day falls on December 22 and is celebrated every year in Indonesia as a form of respect for Mother's services. Even though it is celebrated every year, not many know the history of why December 22 was designated as Mother's Day.
It seems that Yogyakarta was the city where the Mother's Day celebration was initiated. Quoted from the page https://bpmpriau. kemdikbud.go.id/ , let's review further the history behind setting a special day for mothers in Indonesia.
At the end of every year, mothers in Indonesia will be celebrated. December 22, to be exact, is Mother's Day. The initiators of setting the date were Indonesian women warriors from Java and Sumatra.
At that time they held the First Indonesian Women's Congress . This inaugural meeting was held on 22 to 25 December 1928 in Yogyakarta. This congress became the forerunner of the next congress which in the end decided a day of remembrance for all mothers in Indonesia.
Precisely at the Third Indonesian Women's Congress on December 22, 1938, a decision was made to set a special date for commemorating Mother's Day.
President Soekarno officially set December 22 as Mother's Day through a Presidential Decree in 1959. Since then, every year the Indonesian state has officially celebrated Mother's Day every year.
Quoted from the BPMP Kemdikbud Riau page, initially the commemoration of Mother's Day was to commemorate the enthusiasm and struggle of women in efforts to improve the quality of this nation.
That mission is reflected in the spirit of women from various backgrounds to unite and work together. The contribution of women before Indonesian independence was that the Women's Congress was involved in international movements and the struggle for independence itself.
The current work of women is how to participate in filling the era of national independence.
This is a glimpse of the origins of the establishment of Mother's Day in Indonesia, which falls on December 22 2022, now to be precise.
