 The idea of organizing the Second Youth Congress comes from the Student Association of Indonesian Students (GN), a youth organization which membered students from all over Indonesia. On the initiative GN, congresses held in three different buildings and divided in three meetings. Resulting in the Youth Pledge.

In his speech, Soegondo hope the conference will strengthen the spirit of unity in the hearts of youth. The event was followed by a description Moehammad Jamin about the meaning and relationship of unity with youth. According to him, there are five factors that can strengthen the unity of Indonesia, namely the history, languages, customary law, education, and willingness.

OPINI :
Bulan Oktober, ini terasa sangat spesial menurut saya, pada tanggal 28, seluruh rakyat Indonesia memperingati hari Sumpah Pemuda. Tentunya kita masih ingat dalam sejarah, 80 tahun lalu, 28 Oktober 1928  terjadi Sumpah Pemuda, peristiwa yang lahir sebagai hasil Kongres Pemuda II, 27-28 Oktober 1928 di Jakarta tersebut adalah manifestasi yang gemilang dari hasrat kuat kalangan muda Indonesia yang terdiri dari berbagai suku dan agama, untuk menggalang persatuan bangsa dalam perjuangan melawan kolonialisme Belanda. Mereka itu adalah wakil-wakil angkatan muda yang tergabung dalam Jong Java, Jong Islamieten Bond, Jong Sumatranen Bond, Jong Batak, Jong Celebes, Jong Ambon, Minahasa Bond, Madura Bond, Pemuda Betawi dan lain-lain.
Atas prakarsa Perhimpunan Pelajar-pelajar Indonesia (PPPI) inilah kongres pemuda itu telah melahirkan Sumpahnya. Sekarang, yang menjadi pertanyaan adalah apakah kita semua masih mengingat arti penting Sumpah Pemuda itu? apakah makna Sumpah Pemuda tersebut benar-benar telah dihayati oleh anak bangsa ini? Jujur harus kita akui, bahwa saat ini jangankan mengerti dan memahami arti pentingnya Sumpah Pemuda, untuk sekedar menghafal isi Sumpah Pemuda itu, masih ada diantara kita yang tidak bisa.

Beraneka-ragam kecenderungan permusuhan atau perpecahan mulai nampak membahayakan persatuan dan kesatuan bangsa kita, maka mengisi Hari Sumpah Pemuda dengan jiwa aslinya adalah amat penting. Suara-suara negatif sebagai akibat interpretasi yang salah, tentunya akan mengkhianati jiwa Sumpah Pemuda. Seperti halnya pernyataan dan kegiatan-kegiatan sebagian dari golongan tertentu yang dipertontonkan media televisi ataupun surat kabar belakangan ini. Padahal, dengan semangat dan jiwa asli Sumpah Pemuda yang dicetuskan dalam tahun 1928 itu, kita seharusnya berusaha bersama-sama untuk menjadikan Indonesia ini sebagai milik kita bersama.
