Madjoe Teroes... Meskipoen Berat!

A propaganda poster created by Poesat Tenaga Peloekis Indonesia (P.T.P.I) in 1946-1947 for the Linggadjati Agreement features a striking illustration of a man walking forward, carrying a kris and belongings, passing a sign marked "naskah R.P". The text boldly declares, “Madjoe teroes meskipoen berat!” conveying the resilient spirit to keep moving forward despite the weight of challenges faced by the people. This poster is part of a scrapbook titled "We Struggle with Posters (P.T.P.I.)", containing reduced reproductions of P.T.P.I. posters from 1945-1947, addressing Indonesian and global issues.
