Candidates for President Prabowo Subianto said that elites in Jakarta did not understand the struggle and sacrifice of pro-integration fighters of East Timor to the Republic of Indonesia.

"I still remember what happened to you. You sacrificed everything, your life, your family, your property, your land, but you still remain loyal to this Republic of Indonesia, and I want your sacrifice to be an example for this nation," he said .

"That this country was built by blood and tears. The struggle was not limited to words, but the sacrifice was manifested by real actions for the NKRI. And I will continue to fight for your brothers," continued Prabowo, who was greeted with thunderous applause.

On that occasion, Prabowo also explained that he had long wanted to come to Atambua to meet his comrades. But only now can he be present and reminisce with his old friend.

"I have wanted to come here for a long time and look at you and now I am able to come here. I saw the faces of old friends, friends who fought under the red and white flags and I understood the sacrifices of all of you very "Your struggle is extraordinary," he said.

Before meeting with East Timorese pro-integration fighters to NKRI and East Timorese Seroja fighters, Prabowo also visited the tomb of Joao Tavares. The plan was after meeting with the fighters, the former Kopassus Danjen would meet with the people of NTT.
