Surabaya Post p. 2, 21 January 1957: Malang report on Masyumi MP A.W. Sujoso's lecture on the parliamentary mission to Moscow, mocking Soviet life and saying Indonesian women, 'surely also Gerwani', would reject Soviet views on free unions. Gerwani appears only as a foil in anti-communist rhetoric.

Surabaya Post hlm. 2, 21 Januari 1957: laporan Malang tentang ceramah anggota DPR Masyumi A.W. Sujoso mengenai misi parlemen ke Moskow; ia mengejek kehidupan Soviet dan menyebut perempuan Indonesia, 'tentu juga Gerwani', akan menolak pandangan Soviet tentang serikat bebas. Gerwani hanya muncul sebagai pembanding dalam retorika antikomunis.
