Het internationale vrouwen-congres te Boedapest (The international women's congress in Budapest)

The international women's congress in Budapest: Dutch delegates and manifesto

Open file in Google DriveRead full text

De Waarheid report (4 Jan 1949) on Dutch delegates Annie Gelok and Mien Bosch at the second WIDF congress, with the full manifesto. Gelok said the Dutch Women's Movement alone sided with the Indonesian people and demanded troop withdrawal; the paper notes Indonesia's WIDF-affiliated women's organisation was absent because of the war. The manifesto condemns intervention in Indonesia.

Laporan De Waarheid (4 Januari 1949) tentang delegasi Belanda Annie Gelok dan Mien Bosch di kongres kedua WIDF, beserta manifesto lengkapnya. Gelok mengatakan hanya Gerakan Perempuan Belanda yang berpihak pada rakyat Indonesia dan menuntut penarikan pasukan; surat kabar mencatat organisasi perempuan Indonesia anggota WIDF absen karena perang. Manifesto mengutuk intervensi di Indonesia.

“Indonesia, which has a fairly extensive women's organisation affiliated to the International Women's Federation, was not present, which must be attributed to the war circumstances.”
