(Redirected from Pajonga Daeng Ngalie)

Pajonga Daeng Ngalle also known with his title Karaeng Polongbangkeng (1901 – 23 February 1958) was the 12th Karaeng (ruler) of Polongbangkeng and Indonesian revolutionary figure from South Sulawesi. He was a son from Hajina Daeng Massaung Karaeng Ilangari Mangkura and Hapipah Daeng Ngintang, South Sulawesi aristocrats from Polongbangkeng.

He participated in the conference held by South Sulawesi royals in October 1945 with Andi Mappanyukki and Andi Pangerang Petta Rani of Bone, Andi Djemma of Luwu, Andi Abdullah Bau Massepe of Suppa, which resulted in a pledge to support republican government under Governor Sam Ratulangi and rejection Dutch authority. He founded the movement Laskar Gerakan Muda Bajoang and helped coordinate attacks in South Sulawesi from his base in Polongbangkeng, Takalar during the National Revolution to promote integration with Indonesia and resist Dutch and Allied forces.

He was posthumously conferred the award of "National Hero of Indonesia" ("Pahlawan Nasional") and "Bintang Maha Putra Adipradana" in 2006.[1] He was also memorialized with a statue in Takalar Regency.[2]
