Moeso over de staatsgreep in de republiek (Musso on the coup in the republic)
Musso on the coup in the republic
Bredasche Courant, 21 Sept 1948: Madiun-affair report quoting Musso's radio speech that the revolution is under national-communist leadership, claiming 20 million Indonesian women were widowed by romusha labour and calling Sukarno and Hatta servants of Japan and America. Also reports refugees fleeing to Dutch lines. Gerwani/Gerwis is not mentioned; background to later anti-communist framing.

Juga melaporkan pengungsi ke wilayah Belanda. Gerwani/Gerwis tidak disebut; latar bagi pembingkaian anti-komunis kemudian.
“"More than 20 million Indonesian women have become widows because their husbands became 'romusha' in the Japanese period."”
