The TNI Commander revealed that 66 years ago Kopassus was born of a determination and thought of a 23-year-old Slamet Riyadi with his critical analysis having been able to think of the importance of having a special small unit.
"Currently, we may not take it as something extraordinary, but if it is related to the current context, then Slamet Riyadi's thinking is essentially an innovative leap in his time," he said.
Furthermore, the TNI Commander said that Kopassus warriors must be able to integrate the mental and physical strength of Commando soldiers with the application of cutting-edge technology.
