Alimin
Alimin bin Prawirodirdjo (1889 – 26 June 1964) was an Indonesian independence movement figure and also Indonesian communist.
Since he was a teenager Alimin was active on national movements. He was a member of Budi Utomo, Sarekat Islam, Insulinde, before he joined with the Communist Party of Indonesia (PKI) and eventually he became leader of the organization. He was also founder of Sarekat Buruh Pelabuhan (formerly called Sarekat Pegawai Pelabuhan dan Lautan).
In early 1926, as the leader of the PKI, Alimin went to Singapore to negotiate with Tan Malaka in order to prepare rebellion. But, before Alimin went home, the rebellion broke out on 12 November 1926. Alimin and Musso were arrested by British colonial police.
Alimin was born in Delangu village, Surakarta in 1889. His father was Prawirodirdjo. As a kid, at the age of nine, he was adopted by G. A. J. Hazeu, a Dutch official. He was interested in politics and journalism, defying Hazeu's plan for him to become government official.
In his youth, he worked for Djawa Moeda newspaper and was a member of Budi Utomo Jakarta branch at the age of 22. After Sarekat Islam was widely known, he joined the organization in 1915 together with Semaun and Darsono believing Budi Utomo only benefited upper class people, not peasants. He lived in HOS Tjokroaminoto's house in Surabaya together with Soekarno, Kartosuwiryo, Musso, and Semaun. He was dubbed "Tjokroaminoto's man" by Shiraishi. He was also a member of Insulinde. He was also an editor for journal Modjopahit.
Alimin's first encounter with socialism was because H. J. F. M. Sneevliet, the founder of Indische Sociaal Democratische Vereinging (ISDV; Social Democratic Association), frequently visited Tjokroaminoto's house. Alimin, Musso, and Semaun was interested in the ideology and became ISDV activists. Later,[when?] Alimin, Darsono, and Semaun led a faction that was influenced by Marxism and socialism, dubbed SI Merah (Red SI) that was based in Semarang.
In 1918, Alimin was the head of ISDV Batavia branch and was a member of central leadership of the party. While in Batavia, Alimin served as part of the editorial team of the newspaper Sinar Hindia.
Alimin helped Adolf Baars founded Perhimpunan Kaoem Boeroeh dan Tani (Association of Workers and Farmers). He had worked for Mitsui, a Japanese company, branch in Batavia, but later was fired by Mitsui under Dutch government's request. Sometimes before 1918, together with Sosrokardono, Alimin led Perserikatan Pegawai Pegadaian Boemipoetra (PPPB, Native Pawnshop Workers’ Union), which the latter became the vice chairman.
