HALIM
- JAKARTA |
We
cannot offer our readers an article about this Major Indonesian
Transportbase. |
In
spite of HQ permission the Basecommander did not facilitate our request
for unknown reasons. |
Our
apologies, but we managed to show you a few pictures, some made by
Alex Sidharta Julius |

As
stated, the commander of Halim did not welcome us on both invited days to
collect material and make a fine |
publication
about this base in spite of permission from Headquarters. We would have
liked to ask about this Dutch |
pride,
the Fokker Friendship, and write about present time and future plans. We
regret that this story is lacking. |
