History
Etymology and Dutch colonial rule
Around 1700, Padangsidempuan was a small hamlet that was often visited by traders as a resting place, who called it "Padang Na Dimpu", from the Angkola language. Padang means expanse or wide area, na means in, and dimpu means high, so it can be interpreted as "a wide expanse in a high place". In ancient times, this area was a stopover place for traders from various regions, fish and salt traders from Sibolga – Padangsidempuan – Panyabungan, Padang Bolak (North Padang Lawas) – Padangsidimpuan – Sibolga.[5]
Along with the development of the city, the Dutch Colonial Government through Staatsblad Regulation No. 563/1937, raised the status of Padangsidempuan to city level, and the administrative division of the city at that time was divided into 6 Weks (Wijk In Dutch), namely Wek I (Kampung Marancar), Wek II (Pasar Julu), Wek III (Kampung Teleng), Wek IV (Kampung Jawa), Wek V (Pasar Siborang and Sitamiang), and Wek VI (Kampung Darek).
Over time, the city developed and became the center of the economy in the Tapanoeli Residency, along with the development of plantation industries such as rubber and coffee, and also the trade sector, such as trading in salt (Sira in Angkola), fish and other commodities originating from the surrounding area.
Indonesia Revolution 1945–1949
Since PresidentSukarno proclaimed Indonesian independence on August 17, 1945, news of the proclamation of independence was brought in by fighters from the Sibolga area and Bukittinggi. On July 15, 1947, Mohammad Hatta visited Padangsidempuan as part of a working visit from Bukittinggi to Medan, at which time the Dutch Military Aggression was taking place which aimed to defend the Republic of Indonesia from Operation Kraai.[6]
After Mohammad Hatta visited Padangsidempuan, President Sukarno visited the following year and was warmly welcomed when he arrived, and gave his speech at Pasar Batu and a square (now a Grand Mosque Al-Abror/New Grand Mosque),[7] and then continued to Sibolga and Tarutung.
Several months after President Sukarno's arrival in Padangsidempuan, the Dutch violated the Renville Agreement and invaded Tapanuli, in the early hours of December 19, 1948. Dutch soldiers violated the status quo line in Asahan by shooting dead members of the Security Police who were carrying out their duties in the security area of the Republic. On that day the Dutch army also pushed through Rantau Prapat to Wingfoot (now Kotapinang).
On September 23, 1948, the Dutch army crossed the status quo line in Ajibata early in the morning at 3:00, and at 5:00 their troops landed in Balige. By transporting troops via Lake Toba, the Dutch army had succeeded in cutting through the T.N.I.'s defenses. Meanwhile, the Dutch army deployed its paratroopers at the Silangit airport in Siborong-borong. At midday the Dutch army arrived in Tarutung. On December 24, 1948, at 9:00 AM, the Dutch army landed its troops in Sibolga. All the operations carried were out by the Dutch, namely breaking the static line on Rakjat and Ajibata Islands, and disembarking their troops in "Silangit" and landing their troops in Sibolga, assisted by airplanes which dropped bombs and carried out shootings with machine guns.
On January 2, 1949, Padangsidempuan was occupied by Dutch troops. That night the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) with the youth of the people launching an attack on the Dutch troops who entered Padangsidempuan. After the attack, they withdrew. Through Padangsidempuan, the Dutch army was able to occupy Pijorkoling.[8]
Liberation Democracy (1950-1960)
After recognition of the sovereignty of the Dutch–Indonesian Round Table Conference, On March 11, 1950, the South Tapanuli Regency People's Representative Council was formed in 1950 along with the formation of South Tapanuli Regency, including Mandailing Natal Regency, Padang Bolak Regency and Padangsidempuan Regency, which was strengthened by Law No. 7 of 1956 which contained 27 members of the People's Representative Council whose capital was Padangsidempuan.[9]

The front has clear glass forming a concave shape, passengers board from the left side. The seat is not very big. So you can be sure that if the passenger has a large body then this rickshaw can only accommodate one person.
