the first Governor of East Java, Mr. Soerjo. He was killed
during a communist riot in 1948. At that time, in November
of 1948, President Soekarno had summoned all the governors
of the Republic to meet in Yogyakarta (at that time Yogyakarta
was the capital of the Republic of Indonesia). On his return
trip to Surabaya, in the Dukuh Bago Kedungalar Village,
his excellency was held up by PKI followers, and forced
to enter the forest. Right in the middle of the Kedungalar
Ngawi forest his excelency was brutally killed. On that

wood forest along the Ngawi-Solo highway.
