[edit] History
Pramuka Garuda was created in 1980 with purpose of stimulating interest in youth to join Gerakan Pramuka. The Pramuka Garuda rank is based on the decree of enforcement direction for Pramuka Garuda by the National Council No:045 year 1980. In 1984, the decree was revised, and replaced by the decree No:101 year 1984.
