Affandi's picture

Affandi Museum is located between the airport and the city, in the lush garden next to Affandi's (1907-1990) unusual stilted private home. He was Indonesia's foremost impressionist painter who built a private museum for his own paintings and of those of his daughter Kartika. Affandi's grave (he died in May 1990) lies in the backyard next to the museum.

"Human rights in the sense of human solidarity has created a new universal and equal language going beyond racial, gender, ethnic or religious boundaries. That is why we consider it a doorway to dialogue for people of all socio-cultural groups and all ideologies."

Tribal war between Madurese and Dayak at Sanggauledo - Kalimantan (Borneo)

Tribal war between Madurese and Dayak at Sanggauledo - Kalimantan (Borneo)



Tribal war between Madurese and the Dayak at Sanggauledo - Kalimantan between December 1996 and January 1997.
These are the HEADS of Madurese women which were beheaded by the Dayaks and they were paraded around town, watched and cheered by the Dayak people. The Madurese from their home island ( Madura) sent hundreds of their people to Kalimantan (Borneo) for joinning the war. They were sent in waves, but not a single person return because they were ambushed and killed as soon as they reached shore by the awaiting Dayak.
This tribal war was a barbaric act just like the one happened in Poso, Palu, Ambon.
