We, the sons and daughters of Indonesia, admit as one country, the nation of Indonesia.

Third:

Now this historic event has been enshrined at the Youth Pledge Museum located in the PPI Secretariat Building Jl. Kramat Raya 106 Central Jakarta. Including the national anthem, Indonesia Raya, the labour of Wage Rudolf Soepratman, which we still proudly sing today at state events, as well as on Independence Day. If the pledge and song are a manifestation of the pride of the youth in expressing, affirming, and realizing Indonesia's independence, then how will it be realized today?

With a population exceeding 266 million per year in 2018, Indonesia should be a strong nation. There are so many means of channeling talent and expression that we, as young people today, can continue to push the spirit of the Youth Pledge and fill Indonesia's independence; participating in talent search; dedicating our energy and intelligence to becoming teachers and lecturers in rural Indonesian areas who have not been introduced with education; serving underprivileged families throughout the country with our medical skills and expertise; provide advocacy assistance for the people of Indonesia who are not aware with laws, and so on.
