I really appreciate CNA for making this documentary As an Indonesian myself, I know our government tried to close our eyes from seeing what really happened in the dark past. But I believe a big country is one to acknowledge its own mistake to make better choices in the future, and we're still not there, yet. And lastly, we know who not to choose for the next president.
the problem is the war criminal are still in charge, if they admit their wrongdoings that means they shouldnt wield power, but they only care about power.
Sangat disayangkan banyak orang² berprestasi, loyal nasionalis dan disekolahkan di eropa bahkan rusia tapi dianggap komunis hingga tidak bisa ikut membangun bangsa malah diganti sama orang² yang korup selfish loyal ke penguasa yang asal bapak senang😭😭
We kicked dutch and chinese descendants out in the 50's, we forbad our brilliant sons and daughters to return home in the 60's and we are yet to recover from the stvpidity of old order and new order till this very day... 😢
Now we sent our younger generation to study abroad, but they don't want to develop their own mother land, cause many reasons, and the desire to immigrate to the West. Money spent well
Kakek saya 4 bersaudara, 2 pulang ke tiongkok tahun 60. Setelah disana beliau menjadi dosen untuk Peking University, jurusan teknik Fisika. Fyi, peking itu bukan universitas sembarangan di tiongkok bahkan di dunia. Dan saya percaya masih banyak lagi orang" Tionghoa yang menganggap Indonesia adalah tanah airnya ingin merubah dan memajukan nya. Tapi diusir karena masyarakat nya masih banyak yang bodoh dan rasis.
Bagi saya dan keluarga, yg memiliki kekerabatan dgn salah satu jendral yg menjadi korban 65 di lubang buaya. Yang juga punya keluarga yg jadi korban selama pembantaian setelahnya (rumahnya dimasuki, dituduh PKI, diseret, dan tak pernah kembali). Dan juga punya keluarga (adik laki dari kakek saya) yg dikirim oleh sukarno ke jerman timur utk belajar fisika nuklir. Beliau tdk berani pulang, menikah disana dgn wanita indonesia juga. Beliau baru berani pulang pertama kali ke indonesia di 98 setelah suharto turun. Beliau & istri juga sudah jadi warga negara jerman. Dan meninggal pun saat di jerman (jenazah di pulangkan ke indonesia). Bagi para exile yg meminta jaminan keselamatan, itu bukan tanpa alasan. Kolega yg dikirim bersama kakek saya saja dari 67 orang hanya 13 orang yg masih hidup krn menolak utk pulang (sama seperti orang orang di video). Yg memilih utk kembali saat itu, hanya kopernya saja yg sampai ke rumahnya. Saya & keluarga senang mendengar Pernyataan presiden jokowi, itu merupakan sebuah awal. Setidaknya sebagian dari ketidakadilan itu sudah hilang. Dan menurut saya, para exile & keluarga korban itu tdk berharap banyak. Hanya sebuah pengakuan, pelurusan sejarah dan permintaan maaf sudah cukup. Mau yg bersalah itu pemerintah orde baru, dan yg minta maaf reformasi itu tdk menjadi masalah. Krn bagaimanapun juga pemerintah reformasi lah yg menggantikan rezim orde baru.
@@yulusleonard985 yah 30 sept itu kan msl dukacita atas peristiwa penculikan dan pembunuhan 7 perwira TNI, yah sah2 aja urusan itu sih, ngapain dipermasalahkan? Yg jd msl kan ekses k blakangnya dr peristiwa tsb, dimana banyak org ditahan dan 'dihilangkan' krn tuduhan komunis atau simpatisannya tanpa proses pengadilan sama sekali, hal spt itu lah yg bikin org2 indonesia di luar negeri banyak yg tdk berani pulang dan menjadi exiles, msl itu yg hrs dibereskan dan di reparasi.
@@pfidris Jadi kamu pro merayakan 30S? Kalau saya sih mending ngak. Saya males share WA yang mereka kirim, tapi intinya PKI itu menghasut jadi harus diberantas sampai ke akar2nya. Ingat harus di berantas sampai ke akar2nya, jadi penting itu pemberantasanya bukan prosesnya.
Because most of these exile were leftist mostly students in eastern bloc countries, when the cia-backed right wing Suharto coup happened, relations with eastern bloc country worsen, while USA improved. The current ruling party is lead by mega (sukarno's daughter), so ofc because different regime more sympathetic to these exiles. Singapore isn't really innocent since Singapore was used as a base by BBC to publish propaganda and fake news in Indonesia. One of the most infamous, gerwani cutting general's genital. USA justified it as, Sukarno is moving to communist camp. So you will hear that often repeated. McCarthyism imported from USA, is still alive in Indonesia, albeit weakened. Admired Sukrisno considering, Dutch government knew full well what happened, and which side they supported in that coup.
this comunism purge (coup) was during Soeharto reign, approved by CIA, later he became presiden with some obscure letter saying he is to be president. put it simply it is Coup to remove Soekarno, by using PKI and later purge them after they fulfil their role.
I would say the same about the Chinese government ABOUT XINJIANG like if Indonesians heard Chinese of mainland complain we would gladly complain back in their style as part of our tradition to make them understand how we feel. Even if it isn't completely similar
Too many Indonesians are ignorant of this history. It's a dark period with many crimes and atrocities. There is also growing nationalism and intolerance in today's Indonesia. Only knowledge and awareness can prevent history from repeating itself.
tbh most of indonesian know the history and most of them either dont care or secretly happy and proud about that, since even know chinese descendant here doesnt count as "pribumi" and with the economic gap between ethnic is high most people here blame chinese as greedy and deserve what coming to them
Most indonesians know the history. Now, lets talk about the said native "pribumi" and chinese descendant "chindo". If only the pribumi try mingling to the chindo or only the chindo try to mingling to the pribumi. Then harmony wouldnt happen. Because of why ? only one group does the mingling. Now, are both pribumi and chindo already trying to mingle to each other ? Cause if both dont try to mingling to other group, and try to be as exclusive as they can be, hatred can easily rise cause you dont want to mingle.
@@zevter1 You might want to check how pribumi and Chindos intermingle in Central and East Java. Your statement is totally invalid because you only saw Chindo population in Jakarta which doesnt share views and history with other Chindos across Indonesia. Another reason to add is because you chose to ignore the history of Chindo population in Jakarta, 3 genocide events throughout history since the Dutch colonization is enough to separate communities and people.
@@danielles7766 my statement is valid. Because for peace everyone in society have to contribute. If the pribumi dont contribute then that's the pribumi's fault. If the chindo dont contribute then that's the chindo's fault. Effort goes both way. I already stated that both the pribumi and chinese all have to mingle. If the chindo in jakarta already try to mingle to the pribumi but the pribumi still dont want it. Then that's the pribumi fault. Like u said, the chindo and pribumi in central and east java can live peacefully.
Tétapi saya mérasa bahwa ini adalah hal yang sangat ményédihkan térutama saat méreka diusir dari négéri sendiri dengan alasan yang tidak ada hubungannya déngan méreka😢
Bagus sekali paparan film dokumenter ini. Ia mengungkap kepahitan di sejarah bangsa Indonesia. Harapannya, generasi muda Indonesia, sebaiknya tahu dan paham kepahitan masa lalu ini. Jangan terjadi hal spt ini.
As a Chinese indo. I remember as a kid, my mother would sometimes ask me to be careful when making a friend with what people here called pribumi. It's because of the fear that my family experienced during the 65 massacre and 98 mass attacks which both targeted the Chinese Indonesian community. Since this event happened not long before my birth the scars that my parents felt is still fresh. It took a while until my parents could heal from that experience. I still remember stories of how my parents were contemplating moving to hong kong along with my other extended family but chose to stay because it's their home.
It's the same for my grandfather who was jailed tortured and then bribed his way out of jail and fled to Germany never seen his family again. But the so-called activists group and people in this CNA documentary are not representing the real victims of New Order. This is just a group lead by a Sukarno idolator and Java Nationalist called Artien Utrecht. They are based in the Netherlands and they only represent a small group of Indonesians. Specifically a group of (Javanese) and Sukarno idolators that were studying abroad and then had their passport confiscated, that's all. Like that man Sungkono. Not the real most serious victims of the New Order regime and not Chinese Indonesian.
just like how the malays in malaya were warned about the chinese during the chinese communist insurgency era when the chinese plundered malay villages and massacred malays.
ScufflesWaffles this is not about malays or chinese at all. The malay ethnic minority were also murdered by these pro republican/ Sukarnoists (Javanese) in Indonesia. This video is about a small privileged group of Sukarno-idolators living in the Netherlands who demand apologies for everything and anything. This group does not even include Chinese Indonesian.The real victims of 1965 remain silenced. These are Javanese and Indonesian PKI members/ NASAKOM affiliates tainted with their own SIN. I know them all personally. There's nothing sincere about what they are doing. They just want the PKI and communism to be rehabilitated in Indonesia. They are also part of a radicalised communist organisation in the Netherlands. Again: they do not represent the INNOCENT victims/civilians of 1965. It's all political gain for them.
But these people are not the real victims in fact. They are hypocrites with a political agenda and tainted with their own SINS. They do not represent the INNOCENT victims of 1965.
We’re a huge country that spans the width from London to Tehran, with more than 300 ethnic groups with cultural backgrounds that’s just as diverse as our transcontinental nature. But one thing unites all of us: the inability to face the past, the lack of grace to deal with criticism, and the unwillingness to admit we were wrong. I’m sorry for all the children of of our motherland who’ve spent of much of their lives in exile. May you find peace wherever your future will be.
Good day, your country's military-political leadership picked the geopolitical correct side. Being aligned with the US and against the SU meant targeting Reds or alleged pro-Reds became a non-issue. Despite all the talk about a multi-polar world, the US-Western Globalist establishment largely decided on what was right and wrong. Over the past 30-35 years. people around the world were constantly reminded how supposedly evil post-1945 left-wing regimes were but what about post-1945 right-wing regimes? The South-Central American examples were a reminder being anti-Red qualified as part of the good guys. Even when the misdeeds of right-wingers were highlighted, it was done in a less prominent manner. Those who were deemed as "victims of communism" were venerated but victims of anti-communist purges were given much lower status or not considered as important. Maybe some reference to Argentina which made the mistake of falling out with the UK over the Falklands. Other than that , similar right-wing military regimes in South-Central America got little mention. The Western media avoided labelling Suharto as a dictator until after 1998. In earlier times, the Western media used the official term of guided democracy to describe the Suharto system.

These Commies don't. Dont lets your Pity Blind you to the Horrors that could have come. Cambodia is a text book Example ehat happens when Commies Gain Power.
Well you think the same country who condemn a certain group of people who wanted to come home after being exiled for roughly 2000 years, would welcome them?
Indonesia today is relatively more open to talk about this topic. I am in my 30s and in my elementary school days (98-early 00s) we're taught PKI were the bad guys and Soeharto was the hero. Though I come to realize later that the reality isn't black and white and what happened in 1965 was a mess. I think we must acknowledge about our mistake as a new country in the past. I don't know how young Indonesians today are being taught about this topic at school, but we should look past beyond who's right or wrong and reach out to our unfortunate brothers and sisters who became the innocent victims of the incident. Sadly because of how we've been programmed about the incident, many Indonesians still have an unfavorable view toward the exiles and see them as "PKI" (which become one of the worst derogatory term in the country). Government all over the world do the same thing and control the narrative to their citizens, but the fact that our government ready to admit about the mistake is an important move toward the right direction.
This is very educational. And expertly produced as well. The recent political history of Indonesia and the Philippines is almost parallel. Suharto and Marcos were reportedly the closest allies in Southeast Asia of the late 1960s-1980s. Both hated dictators. President Jokowi is an enlightened leader from what I am reading now....acknowledging the mistakes of the past. Ferdinand E Marcos, Jr., son of the dictator and current Philippine president, is engaged in revisionism of history denying the truth of the evils of his father's martial law regime. I enjoy reading and watching anything about Indonesian history and politics.
Tbh communism has always been a real threat in Indonesia and PKI had been instrumentalised by Sukarno in the years prior to 1965 (1945-1964) to kill ethnic minority leaders in Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi even Maluku...except this is something literally noone in the current Indonesian government admits. They are whitewashing and making REVISIONIST history falsifications about it. In line with this documentary, it's a one-sided story. The 1965 episode was a revenge action for Sukarno's pogroms against ethnic leaders and for which he had instrumentalised the PKI.
Jokowi what? He's just as bad as all the rest. A conman and puppet. Who had allied himself to Prabowo Subianto (a known warcriminal and Suharto's son in law).
There's always a dark side of leaders who want to gain power and rule a country. Extremists also want a share of power. When opinions differ, conflicts arise and lead to wars, civil unrest and riots. More often than not, commoners become innocent victims. Indonesia has gone through alot in the last 70 years. The younger generation would not recall the events of 1965/1966 or even in 1998 during the Asian Financial Crisis as they were probably not born then. But history cannot repeat itself - anymore - if Indonesia wants to move forward both economically and politically as a democratic nation. President Jokowi has made the right decision to apologise for the atrocities committed during the dark days of 1965/1966. After all, King Willem-Alexander of The Netherlands apologised on behalf of his country for the excessive violence suffered by the Indonesians during their struggle for independence when he and his wife, Queen Maxima, visited Indonesia in March 2020.
The "Coup" is effectively in effect to this day. The word "Socialist" or "Communist" is still taboo, despite Indonesian, fundamentally adhere to some of its value, despite some of its value enshrined within Pancasila. I honestly don't know how these conflict between the exiles and the state could resolve, especially when they asked for a public apology which the country will never do because Soeharto's version of the history is *the* history each of us Indonesian must adhere to.
And the demand of bringing the "criminals" to justice also impossible. Beside political reason, many of them are in high places or well connected. TBH, being anti-communist is already part of Indonesia national identity, you either accept it or conceal your belief if you are on the other side.
The sad reality is that the Indonesian army has killed more of its own citizens than foreign invaders or colonial occupiers. They were trained by the Japanese who have a history of committing many war crimes in Asia. Indonesia would have been a more prosperous and stable country if there had between a peaceful transfer of power like with Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, and Hong Kong. That dark period really set Indonesia back. Military dictatorship has long lasting scars. For 41 years out of 78, Indonesia has been ruled by a military general, including SBY.
With good reason. Its because of the Communist Purge that saved Indonesia. One only needs to look at Communism and Socialism actually being tried in Asia to see how horrible it is.
@@silverhawkscape2677 Nuance: Indonesia basically created by Communist/Socialist. Soekarno, Hatta etc. and much of the Revolutionary Student/thinker are adhering to Communist/Socialist value which uphold staunch Anti-Colonialization/Imperialization. Indonesia resistance to Dutch Kingdom is "Marx's idea put into practice". Communist purge doesn't save Indonesia from anything, 1998 reform saw to that, back to square one. Indonesia's Ideology is a Centrist Ideology which made by largely Communist/Socialist educated thinker but in regard to Indonesian culture (First Sila, Fourth Sila etc.)
As an indonesian myself, it's not that we don't want to talk about this matters, but as of this moments, we are still afraid to talk about this honestly. There's too many activists who already talk about this and "magically" gone missing. Or worse we're gonna have to deal with UU ITE (information & technologies law). I'm just gonna say that we're currently looking at a more complicated matter than what it seems. We know all 3 of the sides of the stories, we all acknowledge the atrocities that has been done, we also acknowledge that this whole propaganda is wrong. But I just wanna say to the govt that it is not okay to show the whole propaganda movie without censorship to children in school as early as middle school every year. Please don't let the younger generation carry the whole trauma, I think it's fine as long as they know the severity of this matter. ಥ‿ಥ
"Gone missing". Who are they? No activists have gone missing for talking about this subject in the past 15 years, the average people just dont care because they think communism is stvpid (which is ironic considering those commie haters have the same commie mindset too in a way they want everything to be subsidized) 😂

Actually i believe what is more sad is that we have not move on as a nation, it still have impacted much on the current culture and the people's way of thinking.
And now, the descendants of Indonesian diaspora abroad are becoming junior and senior football players for the Indonesian national team. They are playing in the U17 World Cup in Indonesia, and are playing in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. They are struggling to restore the nationalism of their parents.
As indonesian, I believe the government has done the right thing to acknowledge about their mistake in the past. I believe it was part of Indonesian history. I agree if they can come back again to indonesia and live as normal person, but i disagree with the idea that some figures should brought to justice because of their crime. I think this idea is not productive because it would make another problem which make another tension between supporter of each side. I think, the best solution is, acknowledge the mistake, give compensation, and give indonesian citizenship.
True, i mean look at their demand after the government admit their wrongdoing and offer reparations (restoring their citizenship or multi visits visa) they said its still not enough to payback their suffering during the soeharto era. Like the ones doing that (the 1960s) have been stripped from the government by the new government. Why they still asking for more than that lol. Ask apology from the orde baru not reformasi, by asking more than what the government has offered them makes them look like a greedy person thats trying to get leverage by playing the victim cards
The innocent Indonesian Chinese were badly treated under President suharto regime. He banned Chinese education, cultural practice, forced the Chinese to drop Chinese names etc.
Thank you CNA for this episode and investigation. This is treasure for us Indonesians! I personally respect the choices of those exiles, whether to stay away from Indonesian citizenship or to reinstate their original citizenship. Thank you Pak Jokowi for the seminal statement for the past.
in new era right now, many have return back, this country is making a lot of effort for this, there are also those who stay outside because they have already done so It's all about how they choose, we try to facilitate, we try to elaborate
This is really great insight on maybe the darkest time in Indonesia's History since Independence. Its a shame that even until today, people still easy to be led or encourage to hurt or hate their own people. The problem wasn't because of the Communist's Ideology, same like Imperialism, was it bad? The only reason the country that adopt it crumbles was because of Corruption again, corruption of power, money, and doing things just for the sake of their political group. When the era of Imperialism fall, people in the new era says imperialism is bad, when communism fall, people in the new era says communism is bad, it might not far in the future before the era of democracy fall and guess what, yes the people in the new era will says democracy is bad.... The important things was for us wasn't to avoid or hate certain ideology, it is to learn from past and don't repeat it again.....
Mr. Mahfud MD, the minister who refused to apologize is a certified badass oldie. I hope he learns the consequences of his words there because even if he's a little brash, he can be quick to reevaluate and admit mistakes. He's a good bureaucrat despite sometimes throwing caution or tact out the window. I hope he redeems himself like Mark Rutte
Agree. I found him not wise and unemphatic for saying that. This forum that they held felt like a formality rather than inclination to address the actual issues. I found most politicians in Indonesia are arrogant when they’re in power.
Mahfud came from religious bloc, if you knew history between the communist and religious blocs in Indonesia you'll understand why there was still little bit of disdain toward communism. I think Gus Dur was the only figure from religious bloc who was completely chill about communism, heck i remember when he threw an idea to revive communism in Indonesia in 2000 😂😂😂😂
By using the term "a certified badass oldie" you seem to have mischaracterized him in a positive light in the beginning, even though this might not be your intention. Also he's a good bureaucrat? The man does absolutely nothing from the moment he assumed his vice presidency.
His former boss Presiden GusDur also the chief of NU intended to offer full apology and recognizition of 1965 victims ...but faced nationwide backlash. Mahfud was with him back then but lately he changed his stance....well, politician is what politician does
Indonesia under Jokowi has more guts for admitting country's past misdeed seeking reconciliation, while in Malaysia right-wing Malays still fearmongering May 13 incident, to subjugate non-Malays.
Malaysia and Singapore eliminated communism about the same time. With the last vastage of communism during the 1970s. Do not confuse the elimination of communism with domestic politics today. They are not the same. The current situation is political and not ideological.

If you're interested about Indonesia's dark past (im refering to the aftermath of communist genocide in Indonesia), i suggest you watch a beautiful docummentary directed by Joshua Oppenheimer called "The Act of Killing" and its sequel "The look of silence". The first docummentary shows what truly happened during the aftermath of Soekarno's exile from the lens of the people who did the killing. It's a very well crafted docummentary and it's available on youtube.

In both Indonesia and Malaysua, it is always the hard working, peaceful Chinese who are bullied and killed for their success, especially in making their land productive, or are successful in their business enterprises, and in the seventies, the Chinese were raped and killed in Acheh, on an Indonesian island and the murders and rapes were hushed up in the press. In Malaysia, in the twenty-twenties, successful Chinese farmers were forced off their lands, government agents falsely claiming that the government need their lands and there were no compensations. Farmers who refused, find their crops destroyed and slashed; many farmers suffer fear, depression and there were a number of suicides as the farmers were left with nothing to compensate for their labour, fertilisers, water usage, fencing, farming tools, and hours of trials and frustration, pest control and costs. Quite often, when people are jailed without trials, they are murdered while in prison and these deaths are easily and falsely covered up as suicides. None of the prison deaths are ever investigated nor will any case be entertained. The culprits know this all along and will commit murders
Can you prove it its their land? Or they just plundering (i.e stealing) governmenr land without paying taxes? How many of them being jailed? How many of them got killed while in jail? Better back up you claim with facts…otherwise you are just a professional lier.

CNA Insider thank you very much for producing this highly informative and educative content. The high quality of your content is very much appealing. Your channel becomes increasingly interesting for 3rd and 4th generation Indonesian's that are living in Europe.
This video piece could have been better researched. Just a google search of the Wikipedia and declassified documents show how much US was directly involved in the failed 1958 coup against Sukarno and subsequent successful coup years later. The US was silent about the atrocities because CIA was directly involved with supplying of arms, advisory support and training of rebel commanders. President Eisenhower even ordered the coup by CIA and even American/Filipino pilots were directly involved in the 1958 coup.

Besides the military there is also the formidable influence of religious groups in Indonesia - perhaps manipulated by the military but they also use the military for their own ends - for that reason I'm pessimistic about the old generation of exiles ever truly being accepted back in Indonesia.

condolences for the history that has been hidden for a long time just for the sake of power and i think this also happens in all parts of the world, whether in the past or at present, the fact is that history belongs to the winner therefore it removes the human element, even though we have goal of birth and life is only one... to share goodness with humans and all living creatures, love you all [rainz]
Yep, Prabowo is rolling back all the initial work for reconciliation by Jokowi. It will take many generations, all the involved generals in human rights violations to pass away, for something to start to heal the minds and souls of the Indonesian diaspora, across the world. 2050? Maybe. However, we have also to look at another perspective. Indonesia is today a country with a very active Muslim population with a tendency to close in over the other religious minorities, which can be another controversial barrier to accepting former victims' descendants to be admitted in Indonesia.
Prabowo and his family were once an exile too. His father ran away after the failed revolt of PRRI. Jokowi said enough is enough and gave pardon to everyone involved in both communist coups and PRRI revolt.
I disagree Those generals aren't criminals I don't want to live in a country where communism is like a religion it isn't as fulfilling. And disgusting honestly, absolutely DISGUSTING I would war to get rid of communism in Indonesia.
Prabowo has strong links with the military and if he wins the elections we will witness the return of the nationalistic regime, centralized in the new Nusantara. He will impose stricter social rules to reduce the connections with the Chinese and increase relations with the US, Prabowo has too much-biased connectivity with the military and his thirst for concentrated power with crony elites will be inevitable. In line with global tendencies, Prabowo will also try to expand his tenure as President by changing the legislation on presidential mandates. This will bring many people to the streets and more people will be murdered, just like he did during Suharto's.@@suiro8455
@suiro8455 some Chinese-Indonesias have a terrible view of Prabowo because he was head of the military back in 1998 and a lot of us view him as the perpetrator of the massacres done to us. some of us associated him with Suharto a lot too so we're mostly actung on trauma.
i am amazed that even after decades far from home most of them still speak Indonesian perfectly. once all problem settled, i believe they can just come back and blend well in the country. now about the apology. it's just a matter of ego, it's better to just drop it. govt has acknowledged the event. that's good enough. to apologize? who's doing it? the people in govt? Mahfud is right, they are not the same people they bear no such guilt. but that does not mean they will be unfairly prosecuted. DN Aidit's son being safe in the country is all the proof needed. if they so pessimistic about it, then it wont be happening.
What about the Papuans still being murdered by Indonesian army today? Maybe focus on whats happening today instead of 60 years ago. It's hypocrite to close your eyes and cherrypick on what human rights abuses should be addressed. Why no exclusive documentary about West Papua situation.
@@glorious1133 isn't it ironic how you call them terrorist or separatists when all they want it their Freedom. You are no better than the Dutch. In fact you are MUCH worse.
I am talking about Papuan exiles like Raki Ap, who's father, a peaceful Papuan civilian who was jailed and murdered by TNI. Why no documentary on all those Papuans who were murdered by TNI just so Jakarta can get their hands on Papua's natural resources and Grasberg goldmine.
I hope they stay there. Netherland is safer, has universal healthcare, and overall better living condition. Indonesia is too chaotic and polluted. Way too stressful here

Don't forget to mention TNI general Sarwo Edhie who led the 1965 "cleaning operations" in East Java..and admitted to have killed 3 million people. Guess what, Sarwo Edhie is another so-called Indonesian "National Hero"🇮🇩☠️💀🤢

Few years ago I was on a student exchange program to Indonesia. All students had to sign a document stating they would NEVER criticize the Indonesian government. Then all our passports were confiscated by Indonesian authorities for many months. Until the end of the program in fact. This never happened in any other country I studied and made me realize the kind terrible regime Indonesia has. It's worse than North Korea. I later discovered about all the other terrible things going on in that country. Especially about the military violence in West Papua.
A few years ago? Specifically what year? If it was in the 90s i still believe that because the soeharto era is a dark era for local Indonesian like me but if it's in the 2000s and 2010s we had alot more freedom on criticizing the government
@@rae_48 sorry this exchange was definitely not during Suharto era no. Precisely 4 years ago. I think you are unaware of the things your Indonesian government does. Or worse is if you choose to deny them. But to me as a foreign exchange student I could tell the situation in Indonesia is far from normal or as they like to claim 'democratic'.
America only cares about natural resources that Papua has. They never cared about the well being of the people. America owned Freeport (mining company) until Jokowi took power and ended that colonial-esque contract. All of a sudden, "West Papua" movement was born.
Worse than North Korea??😂Lol. What a great lie. I mean I know this government is not perfect but to call it worse than North Korea is just a plain lie. Looking at your profile pic, I am actually not surprised where this comment is coming from😂.
This day will never come, trust me...had waited forever. Whoever the president, this injustice and the hiatory will not be taught in the school and the juatice will mot be served.
aku pernah melihat catatan departemen intelejen amerika aku lupa apakah fbi atau cia, aku juga lupa secara detailnya tapi yang pasti tentang pemberontakan pki, hal ini terletak di nomor pertama pada catatan. rasanya mereka lebih tau daripada buku sejarah yang kubaca dulu
Kudeta soeharto memang dibantu sama amerika buat ngebuat indonesia poros anti Komunis, dan mereka menang, Nyatanya meskipun diktator, amerika masih ngedukung soeharto bahkan pas invasi timor juga pertamanya didukung takut timor jadi komunis disana. Kalo ga salah ada berita ini ada di buku The Jakarta Method.
L’historie se répète… previously when the PKI and supporters were in power, they pressed the religious group and the Government did nothing… In some region, it may dated back to 1946, like Social Revolution in East Sumatra for Malay people, they were under pressure until the PKI was disbanned… However, revenge really resulted no winners, especially when one in power, and the country and organs remained silent during the tragedy occurred…despite being raised by the previous system, of course they must play safe, including cut relationships with the defeated regime…
many of them were not even pki members or supporters they were students sent to eastern bloc countries to learn engineering, physics, and nuclear. theres a reason why after orba came to power our human development got slower because the smart people we sent abroad couldnt get back.
It's like Sukarno idolators believe they hold exclusive rights to apologies.. Who is going to apologize for the pogroms committed by PKI in the years 1946 until 1964. Sukarno literally instrumentalised PKI to kill ethnic leaders and any opposition to the Sukarno/Java regime. Those victims are COMPLETELY forgotten. Always the same Sukarno idolators who take word. I know this particular activist lead by Artien Utrecht in the Netherlands. They are horrible hypocrites. Not even the Chinese families that were tortured and jailed by Suharto are represented. Disgraceful this group of Sukarno idolators and Java Nationalists who only had their passport taken, that's all. They are fully HYPOCRITES.
This group of "activists" from the Netherlands are not who they pretend to be. Not the real hardcore victims of either of the Indonesian regimes. Both Sukarno and Suharto made atrocities against civilians. By great uncle was tortured and jailed. But not represented in this group at all. The group here are only a bunch of SUKARNO idolators from the Netherlands lead by Artien Utrecht a pure Javacentric Indonesian Ultra-Nationalist. It has Nothing to do with the real victims of the Jawa regimes or 1965. Only a few privileged SUKARNO idolators who had their passport confiscated. It's pure hypocrisy tbh.
@@ab-mf5tt not sure. I do know that this group of Indonesian diaspora in the Netherlands lead by Artien Utrecht are obsessed with their VICTIMHOOD and demanding apologies from everyone. They have nothing better to do in life. They are professional sh*t-stirrers.
Sarwo Edhie, the TNI general that also led the West Papua invasion and sham referendum Act of No choice in 1969. In which thousands of Papuans were forced to vote against their own independence or were slaughtered. 💀🇮🇩
@@harukrentz435 in denial or just a hypocrite.. keep it up...your lies and hypocrisy are all getting exposed. Overpride and false history won't cover up the truth forever.
1965-66 Massacre is something most Indonesian wouldn't ever aware if not because of the present of the Internet... maybe as secretive as 1989 Tiananment Massacre for Chinese...
If not for going to studies in film major, and listening to my friend talking about movie The Act of Killing (2012), i would never know about the massacre.
The other problem aknowlegding it meant is saying that The USA is also in the wrong which they have been trying to prevent too. So yeah I hate it but if the otherside doesnt show support to do that then RIP.
Most? I doubt it because plenty people know just don't want to talk about it. More so if you talk on most devastated place where it happens, Java and Bali. Children and teens who experience it still live on age around 60 to 80 you know? Did you know the massacre is vary place to place which most devastated was on Java and Bali? outside of those two place kinda lukewarm such as NTT or Maluku
@@aswiran most young people wouldn't aware of it bro... yes, we aware of G30S, we aware of PKI being disbanded and declared as forbidden party... but nothing about the massacre, until the age of Internet... maybe some kids know the story from their elders, but strictly only what happen in their surrounding area... i highly doubt they aware about the scale of the massacre... moreover New Order era is the era of heavy news censorship...
Most knew about it but don't want to talk.. My parent told stories about building not far from my house that long time ago used as what he call " kamp penyiksaan " where lots of pki members brought and tortured there..

43:25 On Prabowo. There was interesting tidbits that, when visiting a pesantren (islamic boarding school), he met a German student. Then they talk in Germans, but students around being young and a bit insensitive, remark "H**ler language!". But he tried to refute it and correct it to "language of Goethe, Einstein, etc." seemingly trying hard to correct the other students to not offend the German student. It may not mean much, but maybe it indicated that his human rights violation records was (mostly) motivated by nationalistic reason, and not for bloodthirsty-ness. And he did it because of his sense of necessary duty for people in his position. But because of exactly this that, even if he knows that it was a gross human rights violation, he would deem the pki purge as necessary and will never make any progress towards reconciliation if he win the election.
@@kelvindoang1228 You can say whatever, immoral, unjustified, or whatever. But I rather have this than a communist Indo. And I know for sure I'm not a minority in this. Note that, I'm not saying we should have Orba v2. No, his time is over, reformasi is a correct step. But what I'm saying is, if I were put in the same situation as Suharto, I would definitely do the same thing. G30S was a product of violent time and violent (pki) ideology. And it's not only one side with blood in their hands. It's both side. It just so happens one side just won so decisively. I would even argue that the winning side this time was the more benevolent of the two (or the less wicked, for you half-empty glass guys). Look, I support national apology for the human rights victims. What I don't support is some people who try portraying pki as victim, even further condoning its vile ideology. Reflecting current situation, it's like saying Israel don't have a right to self-defense against terrorist group.
@@hikashia.halfiah3582 agree communism could go die somewhere else, but i dont know why chindo is assosiated with PKI since mostly communist root are poor / rural citizen which means mostly not chinese, but nowdays its synonym to hate chinese because they are communist
@@kelvindoang1228 I'm really sorry for that. But I guess the association of chindo with pki probably because of mainland china ruled by ccp. It's sad that it happens. I hope we see ccp fall in our lifetime, and especially disassociation of chindo with communism. Indonesia would be much better with less racism and religious intolerance.
Personally to me, those so called exiles who live in Holland should consider themselves very lucky. Unlike those who live in the PRC and former Soviet bloc countries. I myself was born and grew up in Indonesia in the 1960's before the Communist coup. Although my family is of Chinese descent but we didn't have any problem at all because of the coup. Because my grandfather was a staunch anti Communist (a former KMT member). It was a relief to me that Indonesia did not turn into a Communist state otherwise life would be hell and I would not be able to study in North America. I left Indonesia in the 80's and moved Down Under. My mother and all my siblings and their children have all moved here as well and all live happily here. Nobody lives in Indonesia anymore. Some of my nephews and nieces live in North America and Europe now with their spouses. We never look back.
LUCKY? So shameless and got the cheek to comment here. When you're relatively well-off and nothing happens, its likely your Grandfather's hand is not clean during his dodgy KMT days and continued in Indonesia. Of course you all live in the west now, the ill-gotten gains will be safe in the west . Of course you never look back. Good riddance..don't ever come back to the region. Your grandfather will either roll in his grave or very glad his descendants are gonna be genuinely white.

I really appreciate CNA for making this documentary
As an Indonesian myself, I know our government tried to close our eyes from seeing what really happened in the dark past. But I believe a big country is one to acknowledge its own mistake to make better choices in the future, and we're still not there, yet.
And lastly, we know who not to choose for the next president.
the problem is the war criminal are still in charge, if they admit their wrongdoings that means they shouldnt wield power, but they only care about power.
Definitely NOT Prabowo. I don't want him to be the next president.
Do you mean was the dark past of you, not indonesia.

Kakek saya 4 bersaudara, 2 pulang ke tiongkok tahun 60. Setelah disana beliau menjadi dosen untuk Peking University, jurusan teknik Fisika. Fyi, peking itu bukan universitas sembarangan di tiongkok bahkan di dunia.
Dan saya percaya masih banyak lagi orang" Tionghoa yang menganggap Indonesia adalah tanah airnya ingin merubah dan memajukan nya. Tapi diusir karena masyarakat nya masih banyak yang bodoh dan rasis.
Nasionalis ato loyal gimana? Tuh dia minta marxisme.
Bagi saya dan keluarga, yg memiliki kekerabatan dgn salah satu jendral yg menjadi korban 65 di lubang buaya. Yang juga punya keluarga yg jadi korban selama pembantaian setelahnya (rumahnya dimasuki, dituduh PKI, diseret, dan tak pernah kembali). Dan juga punya keluarga (adik laki dari kakek saya) yg dikirim oleh sukarno ke jerman timur utk belajar fisika nuklir. Beliau tdk berani pulang, menikah disana dgn wanita indonesia juga. Beliau baru berani pulang pertama kali ke indonesia di 98 setelah suharto turun.
Beliau & istri juga sudah jadi warga negara jerman. Dan meninggal pun saat di jerman (jenazah di pulangkan ke indonesia).
Bagi para exile yg meminta jaminan keselamatan, itu bukan tanpa alasan. Kolega yg dikirim bersama kakek saya saja dari 67 orang hanya 13 orang yg masih hidup krn menolak utk pulang (sama seperti orang orang di video). Yg memilih utk kembali saat itu, hanya kopernya saja yg sampai ke rumahnya.
Saya & keluarga senang mendengar Pernyataan presiden jokowi, itu merupakan sebuah awal. Setidaknya sebagian dari ketidakadilan itu sudah hilang.
Dan menurut saya, para exile & keluarga korban itu tdk berharap banyak. Hanya sebuah pengakuan, pelurusan sejarah dan permintaan maaf sudah cukup.
Mau yg bersalah itu pemerintah orde baru, dan yg minta maaf reformasi itu tdk menjadi masalah. Krn bagaimanapun juga pemerintah reformasi lah yg menggantikan rezim orde baru.
Kemungkinan kita akan diperintah penerus Orde Baru he he he. Jadi perlulah itu hutang lama dihapusbukukan (tanpa bayar).

It's a good sign that the government is acknowledging its mistake. Not many government in this world have the balls to admit mistake
Because most of these exile were leftist mostly students in eastern bloc countries, when the cia-backed right wing Suharto coup happened, relations with eastern bloc country worsen, while USA improved. The current ruling party is lead by mega (sukarno's daughter), so ofc because different regime more sympathetic to these exiles.
Singapore isn't really innocent since Singapore was used as a base by BBC to publish propaganda and fake news in Indonesia. One of the most infamous, gerwani cutting general's genital.
USA justified it as, Sukarno is moving to communist camp. So you will hear that often repeated. McCarthyism imported from USA, is still alive in Indonesia, albeit weakened.
Admired Sukrisno considering, Dutch government knew full well what happened, and which side they supported in that coup.
this comunism purge (coup) was during Soeharto reign, approved by CIA, later he became presiden with some obscure letter saying he is to be president. put it simply it is Coup to remove Soekarno, by using PKI and later purge them after they fulfil their role.
I would say the same about the Chinese government ABOUT XINJIANG like if Indonesians heard Chinese of mainland complain we would gladly complain back in their style as part of our tradition to make them understand how we feel. Even if it isn't completely similar
@Ekejhsh Most if not all victims in Papua conflicts are Indonesian.
@Ekejhsh lol.. west propaganda... for gold.. just like in ukraine...
Too many Indonesians are ignorant of this history. It's a dark period with many crimes and atrocities. There is also growing nationalism and intolerance in today's Indonesia. Only knowledge and awareness can prevent history from repeating itself.
tbh most of indonesian know the history and most of them either dont care or secretly happy and proud about that, since even know chinese descendant here doesnt count as "pribumi" and with the economic gap between ethnic is high most people here blame chinese as greedy and deserve what coming to them
They knew, they chose to ignore everything
Most indonesians know the history. Now, lets talk about the said native "pribumi" and chinese descendant "chindo". If only the pribumi try mingling to the chindo or only the chindo try to mingling to the pribumi. Then harmony wouldnt happen. Because of why ? only one group does the mingling. Now, are both pribumi and chindo already trying to mingle to each other ? Cause if both dont try to mingling to other group, and try to be as exclusive as they can be, hatred can easily rise cause you dont want to mingle.
@@zevter1 You might want to check how pribumi and Chindos intermingle in Central and East Java. Your statement is totally invalid because you only saw Chindo population in Jakarta which doesnt share views and history with other Chindos across Indonesia. Another reason to add is because you chose to ignore the history of Chindo population in Jakarta, 3 genocide events throughout history since the Dutch colonization is enough to separate communities and people.
@@danielles7766 my statement is valid. Because for peace everyone in society have to contribute. If the pribumi dont contribute then that's the pribumi's fault. If the chindo dont contribute then that's the chindo's fault. Effort goes both way. I already stated that both the pribumi and chinese all have to mingle. If the chindo in jakarta already try to mingle to the pribumi but the pribumi still dont want it. Then that's the pribumi fault. Like u said, the chindo and pribumi in central and east java can live peacefully.

Bagus sekali paparan film dokumenter ini. Ia mengungkap kepahitan di sejarah bangsa Indonesia. Harapannya, generasi muda Indonesia, sebaiknya tahu dan paham kepahitan masa lalu ini. Jangan terjadi hal spt ini.
As a Chinese indo. I remember as a kid, my mother would sometimes ask me to be careful when making a friend with what people here called pribumi. It's because of the fear that my family experienced during the 65 massacre and 98 mass attacks which both targeted the Chinese Indonesian community. Since this event happened not long before my birth the scars that my parents felt is still fresh. It took a while until my parents could heal from that experience. I still remember stories of how my parents were contemplating moving to hong kong along with my other extended family but chose to stay because it's their home.
It's the same for my grandfather who was jailed tortured and then bribed his way out of jail and fled to Germany never seen his family again. But the so-called activists group and people in this CNA documentary are not representing the real victims of New Order. This is just a group lead by a Sukarno idolator and Java Nationalist called Artien Utrecht. They are based in the Netherlands and they only represent a small group of Indonesians. Specifically a group of (Javanese) and Sukarno idolators that were studying abroad and then had their passport confiscated, that's all. Like that man Sungkono. Not the real most serious victims of the New Order regime and not Chinese Indonesian.
You're Indonesian bro. Fck racist people
just like how the malays in malaya were warned about the chinese during the chinese communist insurgency era when the chinese plundered malay villages and massacred malays.
ScufflesWaffles this is not about malays or chinese at all. The malay ethnic minority were also murdered by these pro republican/ Sukarnoists (Javanese) in Indonesia. This video is about a small privileged group of Sukarno-idolators living in the Netherlands who demand apologies for everything and anything. This group does not even include Chinese Indonesian.The real victims of 1965 remain silenced. These are Javanese and Indonesian PKI members/ NASAKOM affiliates tainted with their own SIN.
I know them all personally. There's nothing sincere about what they are doing. They just want the PKI and communism to be rehabilitated in Indonesia. They are also part of a radicalised communist organisation in the Netherlands.
Again: they do not represent the INNOCENT victims/civilians of 1965.
It's all political gain for them.
But these people are not the real victims in fact. They are hypocrites with a political agenda and tainted with their own SINS. They do not represent the INNOCENT victims of 1965.
We’re a huge country that spans the width from London to Tehran, with more than 300 ethnic groups with cultural backgrounds that’s just as diverse as our transcontinental nature. But one thing unites all of us: the inability to face the past, the lack of grace to deal with criticism, and the unwillingness to admit we were wrong. I’m sorry for all the children of of our motherland who’ve spent of much of their lives in exile. May you find peace wherever your future will be.

Good day, your country's military-political leadership picked the geopolitical correct side. Being aligned with the US and against the SU meant targeting Reds or alleged pro-Reds became a non-issue.
Despite all the talk about a multi-polar world, the US-Western Globalist establishment largely decided on what was right and wrong. Over the past 30-35 years. people around the world were constantly reminded how supposedly evil post-1945 left-wing regimes were but what about post-1945 right-wing regimes?
The South-Central American examples were a reminder being anti-Red qualified as part of the good guys. Even when the misdeeds of right-wingers were highlighted, it was done in a less prominent manner.
Those who were deemed as "victims of communism" were venerated but victims of anti-communist purges were given much lower status or not considered as important.
Maybe some reference to Argentina which made the mistake of falling out with the UK over the Falklands. Other than that , similar right-wing military regimes in South-Central America got little mention.
The Western media avoided labelling Suharto as a dictator until after 1998. In earlier times, the Western media used the official term of guided democracy to describe the Suharto system.

Thank you CNA for the documentary, i hope many young Indonesian can get history from other side like this, not only from goverment and army naration
Puluhan tahun di negeri orang tak bisa pulang tapi masih fasih bahasa indonya.. Woow😮😮❤❤

Indonesia today is relatively more open to talk about this topic. I am in my 30s and in my elementary school days (98-early 00s) we're taught PKI were the bad guys and Soeharto was the hero. Though I come to realize later that the reality isn't black and white and what happened in 1965 was a mess. I think we must acknowledge about our mistake as a new country in the past. I don't know how young Indonesians today are being taught about this topic at school, but we should look past beyond who's right or wrong and reach out to our unfortunate brothers and sisters who became the innocent victims of the incident.
Sadly because of how we've been programmed about the incident, many Indonesians still have an unfavorable view toward the exiles and see them as "PKI" (which become one of the worst derogatory term in the country). Government all over the world do the same thing and control the narrative to their citizens, but the fact that our government ready to admit about the mistake is an important move toward the right direction.
This is very educational. And expertly produced as well. The recent political history of Indonesia and the Philippines is almost parallel. Suharto and Marcos were reportedly the closest allies in Southeast Asia of the late 1960s-1980s. Both hated dictators. President Jokowi is an enlightened leader from what I am reading now....acknowledging the mistakes of the past. Ferdinand E Marcos, Jr., son of the dictator and current Philippine president, is engaged in revisionism of history denying the truth of the evils of his father's martial law regime.
I enjoy reading and watching anything about Indonesian history and politics.
Tbh communism has always been a real threat in Indonesia and PKI had been instrumentalised by Sukarno in the years prior to 1965 (1945-1964) to kill ethnic minority leaders in Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi even Maluku...except this is something literally noone in the current Indonesian government admits. They are whitewashing and making REVISIONIST history falsifications about it. In line with this documentary, it's a one-sided story. The 1965 episode was a revenge action for Sukarno's pogroms against ethnic leaders and for which he had instrumentalised the PKI.
Jokowi what? He's just as bad as all the rest. A conman and puppet. Who had allied himself to Prabowo Subianto (a known warcriminal and Suharto's son in law).
There's always a dark side of leaders who want to gain power and rule a country. Extremists also want a share of power. When opinions differ, conflicts arise and lead to wars, civil unrest and riots. More often than not, commoners become innocent victims. Indonesia has gone through alot in the last 70 years. The younger generation would not recall the events of 1965/1966 or even in 1998 during the Asian Financial Crisis as they were probably not born then. But history cannot repeat itself - anymore - if Indonesia wants to move forward both economically and politically as a democratic nation. President Jokowi has made the right decision to apologise for the atrocities committed during the dark days of 1965/1966. After all, King Willem-Alexander of The Netherlands apologised on behalf of his country for the excessive violence suffered by the Indonesians during their struggle for independence when he and his wife, Queen Maxima, visited Indonesia in March 2020.
He shouldn't have. Commies don't deserve it because these same Commies if they were in his Position would have never Apologized for their atrocities.
The "Coup" is effectively in effect to this day. The word "Socialist" or "Communist" is still taboo, despite Indonesian, fundamentally adhere to some of its value, despite some of its value enshrined within Pancasila. I honestly don't know how these conflict between the exiles and the state could resolve, especially when they asked for a public apology which the country will never do because Soeharto's version of the history is *the* history each of us Indonesian must adhere to.
And the demand of bringing the "criminals" to justice also impossible. Beside political reason, many of them are in high places or well connected. TBH, being anti-communist is already part of Indonesia national identity, you either accept it or conceal your belief if you are on the other side.
The sad reality is that the Indonesian army has killed more of its own citizens than foreign invaders or colonial occupiers. They were trained by the Japanese who have a history of committing many war crimes in Asia. Indonesia would have been a more prosperous and stable country if there had between a peaceful transfer of power like with Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, and Hong Kong. That dark period really set Indonesia back. Military dictatorship has long lasting scars. For 41 years out of 78, Indonesia has been ruled by a military general, including SBY.
With good reason. Its because of the Communist Purge that saved Indonesia. One only needs to look at Communism and Socialism actually being tried in Asia to see how horrible it is.
2023, and there are still a lot of people who believe what Suharto did is for the good of the country, the effect of 32 years of propaganda 😢
@@silverhawkscape2677 Nuance: Indonesia basically created by Communist/Socialist. Soekarno, Hatta etc. and much of the Revolutionary Student/thinker are adhering to Communist/Socialist value which uphold staunch Anti-Colonialization/Imperialization.
Indonesia resistance to Dutch Kingdom is "Marx's idea put into practice".
Communist purge doesn't save Indonesia from anything, 1998 reform saw to that, back to square one.
Indonesia's Ideology is a Centrist Ideology which made by largely Communist/Socialist educated thinker but in regard to Indonesian culture (First Sila, Fourth Sila etc.)
As an indonesian myself, it's not that we don't want to talk about this matters, but as of this moments, we are still afraid to talk about this honestly. There's too many activists who already talk about this and "magically" gone missing. Or worse we're gonna have to deal with UU ITE (information & technologies law). I'm just gonna say that we're currently looking at a more complicated matter than what it seems. We know all 3 of the sides of the stories, we all acknowledge the atrocities that has been done, we also acknowledge that this whole propaganda is wrong. But I just wanna say to the govt that it is not okay to show the whole propaganda movie without censorship to children in school as early as middle school every year. Please don't let the younger generation carry the whole trauma, I think it's fine as long as they know the severity of this matter. ಥ‿ಥ
"Gone missing".
Who are they? No activists have gone missing for talking about this subject in the past 15 years, the average people just dont care because they think communism is stvpid (which is ironic considering those commie haters have the same commie mindset too in a way they want everything to be subsidized) 😂

Actually i believe what is more sad is that we have not move on as a nation, it still have impacted much on the current culture and the people's way of thinking.
And now, the descendants of Indonesian diaspora abroad are becoming junior and senior football players for the Indonesian national team.
They are playing in the U17 World Cup in Indonesia, and are playing in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. They are struggling to restore the nationalism of their parents.
As indonesian, I believe the government has done the right thing to acknowledge about their mistake in the past. I believe it was part of Indonesian history. I agree if they can come back again to indonesia and live as normal person, but i disagree with the idea that some figures should brought to justice because of their crime. I think this idea is not productive because it would make another problem which make another tension between supporter of each side. I think, the best solution is, acknowledge the mistake, give compensation, and give indonesian citizenship.
True, i mean look at their demand after the government admit their wrongdoing and offer reparations (restoring their citizenship or multi visits visa) they said its still not enough to payback their suffering during the soeharto era. Like the ones doing that (the 1960s) have been stripped from the government by the new government. Why they still asking for more than that lol. Ask apology from the orde baru not reformasi, by asking more than what the government has offered them makes them look like a greedy person thats trying to get leverage by playing the victim cards

Thank you CNA for this special episode.
please share this documentary ...
This is really great insight on maybe the darkest time in Indonesia's History since Independence. Its a shame that even until today, people still easy to be led or encourage to hurt or hate their own people. The problem wasn't because of the Communist's Ideology, same like Imperialism, was it bad? The only reason the country that adopt it crumbles was because of Corruption again, corruption of power, money, and doing things just for the sake of their political group. When the era of Imperialism fall, people in the new era says imperialism is bad, when communism fall, people in the new era says communism is bad, it might not far in the future before the era of democracy fall and guess what, yes the people in the new era will says democracy is bad.... The important things was for us wasn't to avoid or hate certain ideology, it is to learn from past and don't repeat it again.....
Thanks to the CIA for this mess with their infamous "The Jakarta Method"
Sukarno descendant versus Suharto descendant is still on until now.
Mr. Mahfud MD, the minister who refused to apologize is a certified badass oldie. I hope he learns the consequences of his words there because even if he's a little brash, he can be quick to reevaluate and admit mistakes. He's a good bureaucrat despite sometimes throwing caution or tact out the window. I hope he redeems himself like Mark Rutte
Agree. I found him not wise and unemphatic for saying that. This forum that they held felt like a formality rather than inclination to address the actual issues.
I found most politicians in Indonesia are arrogant when they’re in power.
Mahfud came from religious bloc, if you knew history between the communist and religious blocs in Indonesia you'll understand why there was still little bit of disdain toward communism. I think Gus Dur was the only figure from religious bloc who was completely chill about communism, heck i remember when he threw an idea to revive communism in Indonesia in 2000 😂😂😂😂
not just him, many of party member from theis-democracy party have that kind of opinion.
By using the term "a certified badass oldie" you seem to have mischaracterized him in a positive light in the beginning, even though this might not be your intention. Also he's a good bureaucrat? The man does absolutely nothing from the moment he assumed his vice presidency.
His former boss Presiden GusDur also the chief of NU intended to offer full apology and recognizition of 1965 victims ...but faced nationwide backlash. Mahfud was with him back then but lately he changed his stance....well, politician is what politician does
Indonesia under Jokowi has more guts for admitting country's past misdeed seeking reconciliation, while in Malaysia right-wing Malays still fearmongering May 13 incident, to subjugate non-Malays.
Malaysia and Singapore eliminated communism about the same time. With the last vastage of communism during the 1970s. Do not confuse the elimination of communism with domestic politics today. They are not the same. The current situation is political and not ideological.

If you're interested about Indonesia's dark past (im refering to the aftermath of communist genocide in Indonesia), i suggest you watch a beautiful docummentary directed by Joshua Oppenheimer called "The Act of Killing" and its sequel "The look of silence". The first docummentary shows what truly happened during the aftermath of Soekarno's exile from the lens of the people who did the killing. It's a very well crafted docummentary and it's available on youtube.
May the younger one reconcile and find the right truth so this tragedy not repeated.

In both Indonesia and Malaysua, it is always the hard working, peaceful Chinese who are bullied and killed for their success, especially in making their land productive, or are successful in their business enterprises, and in the seventies, the Chinese were raped and killed in Acheh, on an Indonesian island and the murders and rapes were hushed up in the press. In Malaysia, in the twenty-twenties, successful Chinese farmers were forced off their lands, government agents falsely claiming that the government need their lands and there were no compensations. Farmers who refused, find their crops destroyed and slashed; many farmers suffer fear, depression and there were a number of suicides as the farmers were left with nothing to compensate for their labour, fertilisers, water usage, fencing, farming tools, and hours of trials and frustration, pest control and costs.
Quite often, when people are jailed without trials, they are murdered while in prison and these deaths are easily and falsely covered up as suicides. None of the prison deaths are ever investigated nor will any case be entertained. The culprits know this all along and will commit murders
Can you prove it its their land? Or they just plundering (i.e stealing) governmenr land without paying taxes?
How many of them being jailed? How many of them got killed while in jail?
Better back up you claim with facts…otherwise you are just a professional lier.

To apologies is to be ready to admit Truth, only it's not suppose to be partial.
This video piece could have been better researched. Just a google search of the Wikipedia and declassified documents show how much US was directly involved in the failed 1958 coup against Sukarno and subsequent successful coup years later. The US was silent about the atrocities because CIA was directly involved with supplying of arms, advisory support and training of rebel commanders. President Eisenhower even ordered the coup by CIA and even American/Filipino pilots were directly involved in the 1958 coup.

What about our version of exile? Mayb can do an episode of ours..
Yep, Prabowo is rolling back all the initial work for reconciliation by Jokowi. It will take many generations, all the involved generals in human rights violations to pass away, for something to start to heal the minds and souls of the Indonesian diaspora, across the world. 2050? Maybe.
However, we have also to look at another perspective. Indonesia is today a country with a very active Muslim population with a tendency to close in over the other religious minorities, which can be another controversial barrier to accepting former victims' descendants to be admitted in Indonesia.
Prabowo and his family were once an exile too. His father ran away after the failed revolt of PRRI. Jokowi said enough is enough and gave pardon to everyone involved in both communist coups and PRRI revolt.
I disagree Those generals aren't criminals I don't want to live in a country where communism is like a religion it isn't as fulfilling. And disgusting honestly, absolutely DISGUSTING I would war to get rid of communism in Indonesia.
Whut? Rolling back? Based on what fact?
Prabowo has strong links with the military and if he wins the elections we will witness the return of the nationalistic regime, centralized in the new Nusantara. He will impose stricter social rules to reduce the connections with the Chinese and increase relations with the US, Prabowo has too much-biased connectivity with the military and his thirst for concentrated power with crony elites will be inevitable. In line with global tendencies, Prabowo will also try to expand his tenure as President by changing the legislation on presidential mandates. This will bring many people to the streets and more people will be murdered, just like he did during Suharto's.@@suiro8455
@suiro8455 some Chinese-Indonesias have a terrible view of Prabowo because he was head of the military back in 1998 and a lot of us view him as the perpetrator of the massacres done to us.
some of us associated him with Suharto a lot too so we're mostly actung on trauma.
when will singapore have the confidence to do the same?
i am amazed that even after decades far from home most of them still speak Indonesian perfectly.
once all problem settled, i believe they can just come back and blend well in the country.
now about the apology. it's just a matter of ego, it's better to just drop it.
govt has acknowledged the event. that's good enough.
to apologize? who's doing it? the people in govt? Mahfud is right, they are not the same people they bear no such guilt.
but that does not mean they will be unfairly prosecuted. DN Aidit's son being safe in the country is all the proof needed.
if they so pessimistic about it, then it wont be happening.
the next pressident after jokowi is the one who must apoligize to indonesia's Exiles,
Since Prabowo was part of Soeharto's family for some time, he MUST apologize
What about the Papuans still being murdered by Indonesian army today? Maybe focus on whats happening today instead of 60 years ago. It's hypocrite to close your eyes and cherrypick on what human rights abuses should be addressed. Why no exclusive documentary about West Papua situation.

Few years ago I was on a student exchange program to Indonesia. All students had to sign a document stating they would NEVER criticize the Indonesian government. Then all our passports were confiscated by Indonesian authorities for many months. Until the end of the program in fact. This never happened in any other country I studied and made me realize the kind terrible regime Indonesia has. It's worse than North Korea. I later discovered about all the other terrible things going on in that country. Especially about the military violence in West Papua.
A few years ago? Specifically what year? If it was in the 90s i still believe that because the soeharto era is a dark era for local Indonesian like me but if it's in the 2000s and 2010s we had alot more freedom on criticizing the government
@@rae_48 sorry this exchange was definitely not during Suharto era no. Precisely 4 years ago. I think you are unaware of the things your Indonesian government does.

aku pernah melihat catatan departemen intelejen amerika aku lupa apakah fbi atau cia, aku juga lupa secara detailnya tapi yang pasti tentang pemberontakan pki, hal ini terletak di nomor pertama pada catatan. rasanya mereka lebih tau daripada buku sejarah yang kubaca dulu
Kudeta soeharto memang dibantu sama amerika buat ngebuat indonesia poros anti Komunis, dan mereka menang, Nyatanya meskipun diktator, amerika masih ngedukung soeharto bahkan pas invasi timor juga pertamanya didukung takut timor jadi komunis disana. Kalo ga salah ada berita ini ada di buku The Jakarta Method.

Why would you want to come back? A disjointed nation waiting for a spark to get violent.
L’historie se répète… previously when the PKI and supporters were in power, they pressed the religious group and the Government did nothing… In some region, it may dated back to 1946, like Social Revolution in East Sumatra for Malay people, they were under pressure until the PKI was disbanned… However, revenge really resulted no winners, especially when one in power, and the country and organs remained silent during the tragedy occurred…despite being raised by the previous system, of course they must play safe, including cut relationships with the defeated regime…
many of them were not even pki members or supporters they were students sent to eastern bloc countries to learn engineering, physics, and nuclear. theres a reason why after orba came to power our human development got slower because the smart people we sent abroad couldnt get back.
It's like Sukarno idolators believe they hold exclusive rights to apologies..
Who is going to apologize for the pogroms committed by PKI in the years 1946 until 1964. Sukarno literally instrumentalised PKI to kill ethnic leaders and any opposition to the Sukarno/Java regime.
Those victims are COMPLETELY forgotten.
Always the same Sukarno idolators who take word. I know this particular activist lead by Artien Utrecht in the Netherlands. They are horrible hypocrites. Not even the Chinese families that were tortured and jailed by Suharto are represented.
Disgraceful this group of Sukarno idolators and Java Nationalists who only had their passport taken, that's all. They are fully HYPOCRITES.
This group of "activists" from the Netherlands are not who they pretend to be. Not the real hardcore victims of either of the Indonesian regimes. Both Sukarno and Suharto made atrocities against civilians. By great uncle was tortured and jailed. But not represented in this group at all. The group here are only a bunch of SUKARNO idolators from the Netherlands lead by Artien Utrecht a pure Javacentric Indonesian Ultra-Nationalist. It has Nothing to do with the real victims of the Jawa regimes or 1965.
Only a few privileged SUKARNO idolators who had their passport confiscated.
It's pure hypocrisy tbh.
Udah jelas ya video ini memang ditujukan untuk pencemaran nama baik Indonesia jadi ya wajar lah kalo mereka berfikir sepihak.
@@ab-mf5tt not sure. I do know that this group of Indonesian diaspora in the Netherlands lead by Artien Utrecht are obsessed with their VICTIMHOOD and demanding apologies from everyone.
They have nothing better to do in life. They are professional sh*t-stirrers.
Non fiction ❤ 👍very precious
Sarwo Edhie, the TNI general that also led the West Papua invasion and sham referendum Act of No choice in 1969. In which thousands of Papuans were forced to vote against their own independence or were slaughtered. 💀🇮🇩
The Referendum was mediated by the UN, supervised by representatives from US, the Netherlands, and Indonesia. So cut the cr^p with your imagination.
@@harukrentz435 in denial or just a hypocrite.. keep it up...your lies and hypocrisy are all getting exposed. Overpride and false history won't cover up the truth forever.
As long as orde baru inner circle are still alive and involved in the government, forget about acknowledging the dark past
Ya'll know who behind this right??
USA.. who else? even CIA have published their involvements in 2017 and CNA still coward to mention 😆
U S and A right?
@@ry1786 yeah who else? 😂
Would CNA dare make a documentary on Singaporean exiles who were forced to leave by the PAP government?
1965-66 Massacre is something most Indonesian wouldn't ever aware if not because of the present of the Internet... maybe as secretive as 1989 Tiananment Massacre for Chinese...
If not for going to studies in film major, and listening to my friend talking about movie The Act of Killing (2012), i would never know about the massacre.
The other problem aknowlegding it meant is saying that The USA is also in the wrong which they have been trying to prevent too.
So yeah I hate it but if the otherside doesnt show support to do that then RIP.
Most? I doubt it because plenty people know just don't want to talk about it. More so if you talk on most devastated place where it happens, Java and Bali. Children and teens who experience it still live on age around 60 to 80 you know? Did you know the massacre is vary place to place which most devastated was on Java and Bali? outside of those two place kinda lukewarm such as NTT or Maluku
@@aswiran most young people wouldn't aware of it bro... yes, we aware of G30S, we aware of PKI being disbanded and declared as forbidden party... but nothing about the massacre, until the age of Internet...
maybe some kids know the story from their elders, but strictly only what happen in their surrounding area... i highly doubt they aware about the scale of the massacre... moreover New Order era is the era of heavy news censorship...
Most knew about it but don't want to talk..
My parent told stories about building not far from my house that long time ago used as what he call " kamp penyiksaan " where lots of pki members brought and tortured there..
Itu masa lalu meskipun pahit,move on...skrg kita bisa menilai sejarah masa lalu mana benar dan salah, tetapi di masa itu adalah pilihan atau tujuan untuk memilih kemana arah politik indonesia, karna uni soviet dan china yg dkt dngan indonesia susah pasti lebih cenderung ke komunis dan rival komunis amerika liberal pasti tdk diam...indonesia berada di anatara komunis,liberal dan islam...kalau di balik, liberal yg berkuasa saat itu pasti ada maslah juga dri komunis dan islam yg bertentangan...jdi semua itu bagian dari sejarah di masanya semua org akan bertahan dan saling memperjuangkan karna merasa sama² dlm ideologi yg benar.
lagian ga kepake juga sekarang perang ideologi.. china uda bukan komunis.. ekonominya kapitalis.. USSR ancur jadi russia.. memekrika menang perang dingin dan menjadi tirani.. trend geopolitik sekarang adalah development.. bagi2 teknologi.. pembangunan infrastruktur.. hilirisasi.. mencapai kemerdekaan ekonomi.. modernisasi militer dan melawan hegemoni amerika.. lu mo islamist, mo sosialist, mo komunis, mo demokratis.. apapun itu uda kebuka semua siapa dalang sebenernya.. dan situasinya saking mepetnya, hal2 tentang kebenaran pun harus disisihkan kalo tidak bisa support trend masa kini..
@@wymmyw8744 makanya gue bilang move on...sejarah masa lalu buat di kenang bukan buat di jadiin beban batin, apa lagi menuntut minta maaf dari pemerintahan sekarang....lol
These two comments are morons! Move on klo keluarga lu dibantai dan diusir tanpa ada penyelesaian yg jelas dan bahkan permintaan maaf! Tiba2 suruh move on! What the hell u say!
Unless the Indonesian government pays full compensation with compound interest and returns all property and jails those responsible plus confiscate all their assets then all they say is meaningless.
Bruh you're words if the Indonesian public hears. Sounds like Afghanistan Taliban demanding Indonesia to follow their lead on their treatment of their men and women. ABSURDLY CRAZY AND LAUGHABLE.
sbg warga keturnan di Indonesia yg dulunya juga dibatasi gerak gerik dan aktivitas normal nya, usul saya stay di sana aja, plg tidak lebih terjamin fasilitasnya dan disiplin masyarakatnya... di sini skrg bisa stress kena millenials termsk generasi instan Indonesia yg alamak ga jelas falsafah hidupnya
43:25 On Prabowo. There was interesting tidbits that, when visiting a pesantren (islamic boarding school), he met a German student. Then they talk in Germans, but students around being young and a bit insensitive, remark "H**ler language!". But he tried to refute it and correct it to "language of Goethe, Einstein, etc." seemingly trying hard to correct the other students to not offend the German student.
It may not mean much, but maybe it indicated that his human rights violation records was (mostly) motivated by nationalistic reason, and not for bloodthirsty-ness. And he did it because of his sense of necessary duty for people in his position. But because of exactly this that, even if he knows that it was a gross human rights violation, he would deem the pki purge as necessary and will never make any progress towards reconciliation if he win the election.
Too convenient of an excuse. Rule of law had already exists back then and even before he was even born
The fact you justify killing other people because he treat german student fairly is weird
@@kelvindoang1228 You can say whatever, immoral, unjustified, or whatever. But I rather have this than a communist Indo. And I know for sure I'm not a minority in this.
Note that, I'm not saying we should have Orba v2. No, his time is over, reformasi is a correct step. But what I'm saying is, if I were put in the same situation as Suharto, I would definitely do the same thing.
G30S was a product of violent time and violent (pki) ideology. And it's not only one side with blood in their hands. It's both side. It just so happens one side just won so decisively. I would even argue that the winning side this time was the more benevolent of the two (or the less wicked, for you half-empty glass guys).
Look, I support national apology for the human rights victims. What I don't support is some people who try portraying pki as victim, even further condoning its vile ideology. Reflecting current situation, it's like saying Israel don't have a right to self-defense against terrorist group.
@@hikashia.halfiah3582 agree communism could go die somewhere else, but i dont know why chindo is assosiated with PKI since mostly communist root are poor / rural citizen which means mostly not chinese, but nowdays its synonym to hate chinese because they are communist
@@kelvindoang1228 I'm really sorry for that. But I guess the association of chindo with pki probably because of mainland china ruled by ccp. It's sad that it happens. I hope we see ccp fall in our lifetime, and especially disassociation of chindo with communism. Indonesia would be much better with less racism and religious intolerance.

Personally to me, those so called exiles who live in Holland should consider themselves very lucky.
Unlike those who live in the PRC and former Soviet bloc countries.
I myself was born and grew up in Indonesia in the 1960's before the Communist coup.
Although my family is of Chinese descent but we didn't have any problem at all because of the coup.
Because my grandfather was a staunch anti Communist (a former KMT member).
It was a relief to me that Indonesia did not turn into a Communist state otherwise life would be hell and I would not be able to study in North America.
I left Indonesia in the 80's and moved Down Under.
My mother and all my siblings and their children have all moved here as well and all live happily here.
Nobody lives in Indonesia anymore.
Some of my nephews and nieces live in North America and Europe now with their spouses.
We never look back.
LUCKY? So shameless and got the cheek to comment here. When you're relatively well-off and nothing happens, its likely your Grandfather's hand is not clean during his dodgy KMT days and continued in Indonesia. Of course you all live in the west now, the ill-gotten gains will be safe in the west . Of course you never look back. Good riddance..don't ever come back to the region. Your grandfather will either roll in his grave or very glad his descendants are gonna be genuinely white.
Under Suharto life expectancy grew by 22 years in 22 years, under Sukarno life expectancy grew by 14 years in 30 years (!).

It's pure hypocrisy tbh.
I can never understand Chinese descendants who support NATO.
To forgive is divine and to err is human. To forgive but not to be forgotten. Blood is on the perpetrators' hand.
