Open file in Google DriveRead full text

De Waarheid, 15 Dec 1961, p. 4: report that President Sukarno addressed the Gerwani congress on Thursday, rejecting the Luns policy on West Irian, calling force 'probably the only language imperialists understand' and urging mobilisation of national unity among nationalists, religious groups and communists, before his Yogyakarta announcement the next Tuesday. Gerwani is described as the large progressive women's movement.

De Waarheid, 15 Des 1961, hlm. 4: laporan bahwa Presiden Sukarno berpidato di kongres Gerwani pada hari Kamis, menolak politik Luns soal Irian Barat, menyebut kekerasan 'mungkin satu-satunya bahasa yang dimengerti imperialis' dan menyerukan mobilisasi persatuan nasionalis, agama, dan komunis, menjelang pengumumannya di Yogyakarta Selasa berikutnya. Gerwani disebut gerakan perempuan progresif besar.
