THE SOEBARKAH SAGA CONTINUED
From another website (no soure provided) I read that an important ‘Military Man’ named SOEBARKAH was a coffin-bearer at the funeral of SUKARNO, President of Indonesia. Sukarno was deposed in 1967, died in 1970.
Searching for any SOEBARKAH/SUKARNO/SEOTORO connection, I GOOGLED SUKARNO/SOETORO.
THERE ARE SEVERAL RESULTS. BUT DON’T GO THERE! MALWARE ATTACK!
HOWEVER, I DID RUN ACROSS THIS LITLE GEM:
Laura Iandola, Ph.D. candidate, History and Graduate Assistant, Center for Southeast Asian Studies, Northern Illinois University
Lecture title: Malcolm X, Sukarno’s Indonesia, and the Politics of Bandung
Sukarno, Indonesia’s first president, and Malcolm X shared the platform at Harlem’s Abyssinian Baptist Church in 1956, introduced there by mutual friend Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. The relationship launched there endured until Malcolm X’s untimely death in 1965, two weeks before he was slated to speak at the Asian-African Islamic Conference in Jakarta. He had also planned to attend the tenth anniversary celebration of the 1955 Bandung Conference, the first large-scale Asian-African conference. Iandola explores this little-known relationship to illuminate their ideological affinities as well as the Cold War politics of the Third World.
NOW ISN’T THAT A SURPRISE...
Well well WELL well well.
Getting hotter....

“Obama ate dogs when he was a boy in Indonesia.”
Perhaps the family name was changed for political reasons. Lot of political chaos (mass murders) taking place at that time in Indonesia.
The Ann/Anna issue. This was a girl named Stanley. Could be she hated the name (Stanley or Stannie I’ve heard was the nickname she used) and when she got older she tried to go to her middle name.
