We have seen two colonial offensives, two peace agreements, civil wars and multiple foreign interventions. And yet, 1949 is the most deadly year of the entire Indonesian War of Independence. And, without spoiling the episode, stuff doesn't end in 1949. Indonesia will stay the stage of revolts, colonialism, civil war and ideological purges for decades to come. We won't get to cover that in these series, as these are exclusively about the Indonesian War of Independence from 1945 to 1949. We might revisit the area in the future though. If you want to support that, and share in the decision of what series to make next, you can support us on http://www.patreon.com/timeghosthistory or https://timeghot.tv.
Cheers, Joram and Izzy

I complete watching all Indonesian Independence War Series.
Big Suprise, i didn't think before, that the foreigner would be objective about Indonesian History. 👍
I am Dutch born 1/4 Indonesian In bloodline. As a school going kid in the early 70’ I wondered why in the Netherlands there was silence on what had happened in the transition years to a free Indonesia.
I felt that things had gotten ugly, and ex-militaire man where very quiet. Late 70’s there was a train kidnapping in the north of the Netherlands by disgruntled south Moluccan resistance fighters or their descendants. We nearly lost our dad, he was meant to take that train, but that day he chose the car. As a Indonesian born halve cast, he would have been targeted. Some people got shot on that train.
Thank you Indy Neidell for your program’s . It helps me to understand my past and that of my parents and grandparents.

Interesting framing. The Dutch brutally suppress republican guerrillas. Indy: War crimes! Genocide! The republicans brutally suppress communist guerrillas. Indy: effective handling of a communist insurrection.

How about making a series about the chinese civil war (after WW2). I think that would be cool
Wait. That sounded like a happy ending. I must have missed something.

10:38 Guys, your translation of this speech is a little spotty… Here's mine:
"Measurably great is the satisfaction of a people seeing it's freedom made manifest, however immensely burdensome the task may be that this young nation has lifted upon it's shoulders."
This is just the beginning
