This difference in perspective was fundamental: Hatta, in building a government or a nationalist movemnet, emphasized patient building from the bottom up; Sukarno relied on inspired leadership from above "to rouse the masses" to the task at hand and to create a national consensus.

Mengobarkan semangat rakyat


Explanation:
Personally I think, 'mengobarkan' is not only 'membangkitkan' but also trigger or energize the people to fight, standup, defend their honor, etc.

Another word comes to mind is 'menggugah semangat rakyat'

Hope the above provides you with more inputs.
