The KAA Museum (KAA 博物館)

KAA stands for Konferensi Asia-Africa.
It is a conference that happen in the past, aim for spread the world about the independence. It happened 10 years after our independence on 1945 exactly on 18-24 of April. But Indonesia had already told the idea since 1933. It happened because of colonialism and imperialism that gone to colonization and cold wars and turbulance of weapon and racism between west block and east block. It was included as an international level and was build on April 24 1980. Soeharto was the one who dedicated it to immortalize them the meaning and story of KAA. This building then used for education center, observation, and vacation spot. Their tables and chairs are still fresh from 1955. It was pure of Jati Tree, it was very strong and still looks new. Why does our president wanted to locate this building in Bandung? Not in Jakarta? He said because Bandung have a nice weather and it have good security to protect the building. It was followed by 106 countries around the world. The place is still good and there are a lot of history things there. It was so fun.
