Java-Bode, 5 April 1954, p. 2: President Sukarno and his wife received Gerwani (formerly Gerwis) members at the end of their five-day Jakarta congress. Sukarno said the just and prosperous state cannot be built by one sex alone, and that women's problems are solved not by equal rights alone but by that state, which men and women must build together.

Java-Bode, 5 April 1954, hlm. 2: Presiden Sukarno dan istri menerima anggota Gerwani (dahulu Gerwis) di akhir kongres lima hari di Jakarta. Sukarno berkata negara adil makmur tak dapat dibangun satu jenis kelamin saja, dan masalah perempuan tidak selesai dengan persamaan hak saja melainkan dengan negara itu, yang harus dibangun bersama.

“The women's problem is not solved by obtaining equality of rights with men... men and women will work together for their country (Sukarno, p. 2).”
