The story of Ribka Tjiptaning, a women who has never shamed to be a child of PKI member

News24xx.com -  Ribka Tjiptaning is a daughter of a member of the Indonesian Communist Party (PKI) who dares to speak about her identity.

The woman who is familiarly called Ning also had time to write the book "Aku Bangga Jadi Anak PKI". One step that often called crazy by her friends fellow children victims of the September 30 Movement (G30S).

According to Ning, there is nothing to hide about her. Her parents are indeed very worthy to be proud of.

"My father is a good figure, the principle of his life in this world there are only two teachings that are good and bad so there is no class difference," said Ning. While the mother according to Ning always teaches love.

Ning was born in the middle of a well-established family. Understandably, her father Raden Mas Soeripto Tjondro Saputro owns a nail factory in Solo.

 "In Solo until now there are many who know my father," said Ning.

In PKI, Suripto did not enter the structural position. As far as Ning, his father was one of the PKI's special bureau members. Although not a PKI frontman, not just anyone can meet him.

Only a handful of people in the PKI and the organizations below that could meet the father of Ning at that time.

The G30S incident followed by the arrest of the PKI made Suripto leave four children and pregnant wives. His effort automatically stagnated by then.

Ning's family's journey further became erratic. Together with her mother and three siblings, Ning departs for Jakarta. In Jakarta, Ning admitted experiencing a variety of bitter experiences. Not just to survive, but also to finance the school.

With difficulty, after passing through 12 years of study period, Ning won a doctor degree from the Christian University of Indonesia. Ning is also active in the Indonesian Democratic Party which later turned into the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle.

When PDI broke out, Ning chose to enter Megawati stronghold until now she was elected as member of DPR RI. This is the second period in parliament.

On the sidelines of her busyness, Ning wrote the book Aku Bangga Jadi Anak PKI. According to Ning, the book was a kind of autobiography of herself who felt the bitterness of the family life of the G30S victims. "At the time I was 6 years old," said Ning.

One of the bad experiences that she still remembers until now is how she and her brother were forced to see firsthand the father being tortured.

At that time Mr. Ning was interrogated by soldiers at a house in Gang Buntu, Kebayoran Lama. The house was then known as a house of torture of PKI members.

"I see the father hanged upside down, the body full of wounds, from the nose and ears out of blood," Ning said with a shudder. Therefore, Ning added, there is no reason to make her not proud of his father who is a PKI member.

Asked about her ideology, Ning firmly replied "Pancasila Bung Karno, June 1, 1965," he said.
