Mohammad Hatta

The First Hatta Cabinet (Шаблон:Lang-id) was Indonesia's seventh cabinet. It was formed by Vice President Mohammad Hatta, who was instructed to do so by President Sukarno on 23 January 1948, the same day the previous cabinet was declared dissolved. Following the second Dutch military aggression, when the republican capital of Yogyakarta was seized and most of the cabinet arrested, much of the cabinet was captured and sent into exile, although it was not formally disbanded. After the political leadership returned effective 13 July 1949 the cabinet continued its mandate until it was reshuffled on 4 August.

Formation

The Second Amir Sjarifuddin Cabinet, under Prime Minister Amir Sjarifuddin, fell on 23 January 1948 following popular outrage over the Renville Agreement, which the populace considered having given away too much of the nascent country's political power.Шаблон:Sfn Mohammad Hatta, then serving as vice president, was asked by President Sukarno to form a new cabinet which united the country's political parties.Шаблон:Sfn Hatta kept ten members of the previous cabinet, although he did away with the deputy ministersШаблон:Sfn and removed ministers with leftist leanings.Шаблон:Sfn

The cabinet was formed on 29 January 1948, with Hatta serving concurrently as vice president and prime minister.Шаблон:Sfn It formally took office on 2 February.Шаблон:Sfn Its mandate focused on dealing with the Renville agreement, developing the nation, and working towards a consolidated government.Шаблон:Sfn With General Sudirman, commander in chief of the military, Hatta worked to reduce leftist influences in the armed forces, which had been exploited during Sjarifuddin's cabinet.Шаблон:Sfn However, Hatta's work was greatly weakened by continued division over the Renville Agreement.Шаблон:Sfn

The Indonesian legal scholar and politician Bibit Suprapto writes that the Hatta Cabinets were not truly parliamentary, as Hatta continued to serve in/ the executive branch of the government, but also not truly presidential, as Hatta formally held the title of prime minister.Шаблон:Sfn

The initial composition of the First Hatta Cabinet

Several changes to this line-up were made during the course of the cabinet. Juanda was replaced as Minister of Public Works on 13 April 1948 by Herling Laoh. Hamengkubuwana IX replaced Hatta as Minister of Defence on 15 July 1948. Supeno died in on 24 February 1949 and was not replaced.Шаблон:Sfn

Events

The First Hatta Cabinet was marked by an increase in international recognition of the country. Yemen and the Soviet Union, for example, recognised Indonesia's independence in May 1948.Шаблон:Sfn

Internal dissent

The former prime minister, Sjarifuddin, did not accept the fall of his cabinet; leftist forces had controlled the cabinet since Indonesia's independence in 1945.Шаблон:Sfn Together with the Communist Party figure Muso, he formed the People's Democracy Front (Шаблон:Lang, or FDR), which opposed the Hatta cabinet and called for a new, leftist, cabinet. In early February 1948 they were already meeting and discussing how to handle the new cabinet.Шаблон:Sfn

The FDR surmised that the cabinet, which prominently featured the Muslim-backed party Masyumi, would be unable to fulfill their mandate and what projects were completed would be against the needs of socialists and communists.Шаблон:Sfn They gave the cabinet the titles "Masyumi Cabinet" and "Bourgeois Cabinet". Throughout early 1948 the FDR criticised Islamic groups and the groups in power; they also led several strikes and called for the Hatta Cabinet to unilaterally renege the Renville Agreement.Шаблон:Sfn In response, the government freed Tan Malaka and other political prisoners beginning in mid-August; although those freed were also communist, they were staunchly opposed to the FDR and worked at subverting the FDR's work.Шаблон:Sfn

This dissent culminated in the Madiun Affair, in which FDR forces, under the command of Muso, Sjarifuddin, and other leftist figures, seized the city of Madiun, East Java, on 18 September 1948; the FDR razed homes and killed more than a thousand people, mostly Islamic figures. Four days later the Indonesian Army deployed to retake the city. The first troops arrived on 30 September and began fighting the following day, retaking the city. FDR members spread out over the area, leading to the army spending several months hunting them. Muso was killed in early October, while Sjarifuddin was captured on 29 November and executed the following month.Шаблон:Sfn

Dutch pressure

Following the Renville Agreement, the Van Mook Line – which separated Dutch-held areas from those held by the Indonesian republic – was formally recognised. Behind the line the Dutch established numerous minor nation-states in areas claimed by Indonesia, including Madura and Pasundan.Шаблон:Sfn Numerous skirmishes occurred along the line, incurred by both Indonesian and Dutch troops.Шаблон:Sfn The Dutch forces also continued to block the Indonesian archipelago, preventing supplies from reaching the people.Шаблон:Sfn As such, by December tensions between the two forces were high.Шаблон:Sfn

Fall

During Operation Kraai, a Dutch assault on the capital at Yogyakarta which began on 19 December 1948, the cabinet and President Sukarno were captured and exiled. An emergency cabinet, under Sjafruddin Prawiranegara, was established in Sumatra; however, the Hatta Cabinet was not formally disbanded.Шаблон:Sfn After the political leadership was released and returned to Yogyakarta, Prawiranegara returned control of the country to Hatta's cabinet effective 13 July 1949; the Hatta cabinet retained its line-up until 4 August 1949, when it was reshuffled, again with Hatta as prime minister.Шаблон:Sfn
