Penegak Laksana


The rank insignia system of the Indonesian Scouting movement Gerakan Pramuka is by and large militarized in traditions and outfit.

Much is left to the traditions of specific groups. Some of them do not grant some of the ranks to its members, while others name them differently; the very look of the insignia may differ from group to group.

Tanda Kecakapan Khusus (TKK) are merit badge awards earned by youth members of the Gerakan Pramuka organization, based on activities within an area of study by completing Special Skills Requirements (SSR/SKK). Some special TKK are also required in order to achieve the Eagle Scout award. Members who have earned more than five merit badges display them on a sash which may be optionally worn diagonally across the front of the Boy Scout uniform from right side to left side. Sashes are usually only worn for ceremonial occasions.

TKK for Boy Scout, and Rover Scout are divided into three levels:

Based on the background color, TKK can be divided into 5 groups where each color represents special areas of interest. The image of TKK represents the subject of interest. The pictures are standard from the National Council. For Cub Scout level there is only one level of TKK, and does not have as many choices of merit badge (Note: cub Scout Merit Badges showed above, which have a triangle shape).

Calon Bantara is a transition level between Boy Scout and Rover Scout. In this level, a member learns the basics of Penegak level, also called Troop guest.

Penegak Bantara is the first official level after a member obtains their orientation and transition from Penggalang to Penegak. Bantara level can be obtained after completing the general basic skills for Penegak or Rover level in SKU (general requirement). The shoulder loop for Bantara is almost the same as the Penegak Laksana. The difference is the word BANTARA written on it. The official welcome ceremony for a new Bantara, often called Upacara Adat Ambalan (customary law ceremony) involves a senior and instructor holding a campout for two nights. During this campout the cadet will be inducted as a Bantara.
