Ten months have passed since the Firsb P1enum (Febru- ary, 1963) of the Seventh National Congress (April, 1962) Central Committee of our Party. During these 10 months the Indonesian working peopie with o,r.rr Party in the foremost ranks, have waged a tre- mendous struggle under the slogan of the First Plenum I of the Central Committee: Daring, Daring, Once Again Dari.ng! which has been the so,urce of great inspiration t and mobilisation. l Our Party together with President Sukarno has suc- ceeded in setting afire a spirit of daring among the broad masses of the Indonesian people. The year 1963 did in- deed become a "year of daring", and once daring has been aroused and has become the possession of the peo- pIe, it will certainly sweep aside all barriers and cbsta- cIes. For revolutionaries, in particular for Communists, their place is in the foremost ranks of the masses whose polit- ical consciousness and daring is continually surging up- wards. If they fail to take their place in the foremost ranks, they cease to be revolutionaries, they become use- Iess or become an obstacle to the revolutionary mass movcmcnt. Undcr the slogan, Daring, Dari,ng, Once Again Daring! the members of our Party have undertaken tremendous activities and in the course of doing this, the ideological, political and organisational unanimity of our Party and the revolutionary mass organisations has been further steeled, with the result that our Party and our mass in general further improved.
