Soekarno deceive the Netherlands with eggs and Al-Qur'an

Bung Karno founded the Algemene Study Club in Bandung. This organization became the forerunner of the National Party of Indonesia was established in 1927. Activity in PNI Soekarno this will keep him in jail and then transferred to Banceuy Sukamiskin in 1930.

While incarcerated, Sukarno relied on his life of his wife. The whole necessities of life supplied by Inggit assisted by the elder brother of Sukarno, Sukarmini or better known as Mrs. Ward.

When transferred to prison Sukamiskin, supervision of Sukarno increasingly harsh and strict. He was classified as a dangerous prisoner. Even to isolate Soekarno so do not get information from the outside, he combined with the prisoners 'elite'. This prisoner group composed mostly of Dutch people involved in corruption, fraud, or embezzlement. Of course, chat with them does not connect with young Bung Karno who are eager to discuss the struggle for independence. At the most discussed is about the food, the weather, and things that are not important.
The first few months into custody in Sukamiskin, Bung Karno communication with his compatriots almost dropped out altogether. But actually, there are a variety of ways and sense are performed Soekarno to remain outside information.

It happened when the prison authorities allow Soekarno receive a shipment of food and eggs from outside. Eggs are an Inggit merchandise is always strictly inspected by guards before being accepted Bung Karno.

As told Ms. Ward is quoted in the book 'Bung Karno Masa Muda' Intercity Library published in 1978, the egg becomes a means of communication to spread outside the state prison. How, when Inggit send salted egg, meaning that outside there was bad news that befell fellow Bung Karno. But he can only guess the only bad news, because Inggit can not explain in detail.

Over time, Sukarno and Inggit then find more sophisticated ways to trick the Netherlands. The medium is still the same, the egg. However, the egg has been pierced with a fine needle and a more detailed message about the bad news that can be understood Bung Karno. One in the egg puncture means all the good news, the two puncture means a friend were arrested, and three puncture means there is a massive raid against the independence movement activists.

There is another way more complicated by using media of religious books to the Koran. Inggit who gets a visit twice a week allowed to bring religious books and the Koran. For example, Bung Karno sent the Koran on 24 April. Bung Karno had to open the fourth letter of the Koran on page 24. Under certain letters on the page are small holes such as Braille. For example under the letter B there is a puncture, then under the letter U, and so on, to form a series of words and sentences that contained news of his compatriots who are outside prison.

One more model of communication used Bung Karno. How to have Mrs. Ward, who always accompany Inggit Sukamiskin visited him in prison. He uses body language such as pulling ears, fingers crossed, wink, moving the one hand, to move the front. All the code it already understood its meaning by Bung Karno.During serving a sentence from December 1929 until released on December 31, 1931, Sukarno was never visited by his parents who were Blitar. According to Mrs. Ward, their parents Raden Soekemi Sosrodihardjo and Ida Ayu Nyoman Rai could not see the child that they are proud of it is in the lowly place in prison and in a position of helplessness.Moreover, while in Sukamiskin, according to Mrs. Ward, Soekarno conditions so thin and black. But Bung Karno reasoned, she deliberately made her black with working and moving in the sun to heat the bones. For in cell no sunlight, moist, dark, and cold.
