At the time of carrying out this research, the author conducted literature studies and field studies to obtain important archives and quality informants who were witnesses to history. The literature study was carried out by visiting the offices of press companies and also asking for archives that had been kept by historical actors. Meanwhile, field studies were carried out by direct interviews with resource persons. The results of this research are various important information obtained by the author explaining the emergence of the IPK since 28 August 1969 as one of the large organizations that is important through its influence on political dynamics in North Sumatra, as well as the various social actions carried out to support the welfare of many people. On April 30 2009, the founder of the Karya Youth Association, Olo Panggabean, died in Medan. Many young people in North Sumatra are joining and training for leadership by becoming part of the IPK cadre, so that they increasingly progress and emerge as public figures who are admired and respected in society, such as: Moses Tambunan, Uli Tobing, Benny Sihotang, Rajamin Sirait, and the other characters. However, currently IPK activities tend to be passive and reduced in the community so that they are more likely to be seen during the implementation of democracy, so the author hopes that IPK can restore its glory and develop even better in the future. | en_US |
