Geschäftsblatt für den obern Teil des Kantons Bern, 6 November 1965: The greatest riddle of the coup - Sukarno's conduct
Geschäftsblatt für den obern Teil des Kantons Bern, 6 Nov 1965: the same DPA report on the Indonesian coup as in Berner Tagwacht, with other subheadings. It alleges PKI plans (from captured documents) to murder 10,000+ officers and to arm one million peasants and workers as a militia using Pemuda Rakyat, BTI, SOBSI and Gerwani cadres, and discusses Sukarno's presence at Halim. Gerwani appears only in the militia sentence.
Geschäftsblatt für den obern Teil des Kantons Bern, 6 November 1965: laporan DPA yang sama tentang kudeta Indonesia seperti di Berner Tagwacht, dengan subjudul lain. Menuduh rencana PKI (dari dokumen yang disita) membunuh 10.000+ perwira dan mempersenjatai sejuta petani-buruh sebagai milisi memakai kader Pemuda Rakyat, BTI, SOBSI dan Gerwani, serta membahas keberadaan Sukarno di Halim. Gerwani hanya disebut dalam kalimat milisi.
“With the cadres of 'Pemuda Rakyat', 'BTI', 'SOBSI' and 'Gerwani' (women) ... a people's militia on the Peking model was to be built up already in the second phase of the coup.”
