Red Cross had a long history regarding its important contributions among national movement to the Indonesian Revolution period. The history of the Red Cross from Bataviaasch Comite to be the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) was very complex, due to many dynamics and chronicles in it. There were lots of interesting problems to study on the Red Cross transition from the colonial government to the Republic of the Indonesia government. Based on the reason above, this research discusses the Red Cross transformation from the Bataviaasch Committee into the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI).
