Message

We must hold on to the spirit of “won’t run away even beaten to death”. We may have lost the government, but not the spirit. As long as we believe in what we are struggling for, we will not lose the direction. What’s important is we believe in ourselves, not what people think or say about us. Satu Hati means uniting with one spirit although we may have different views and opinions.
