neutral in the
Korean conflict
Jakarta, August 12.
| Indonesia, absorbed with the problem of con- solidating her eight-month-old independence, has adopted the role of a neutral spectator in the Korean conflict.
A high Indonesian official summed up the non- committal attitude with "We would not help even if we could, because it is none of our business."
A great many of Indonesin's teeming millions- the illiter- ate pensant who bathes public- ly in Jakarta's muddy canals, the simple villager eking a meagre existence from the soil have never heard of Korea
Political eireles here are more
internal concerned with
head- aches such as drafting the new Unitarian constitution for the 6inte which is expected to be proclaimed on August 17, or the Macossar Aghting.
Party politics frequently pushi Korean news into a secondary place in the press, and editorial comment is rare, One leftist newspaper recently said: "Left. believe wing political observers that ultimately the United States will be beaten in Korea, for Korea is in the throes of revolu-
t
in
This is part of 1 revolution which will break out later Indo-China to be followed per- haps in Burma, Malaya and Germany. These Leftist observers
ten- believe this revolutionary dency will force the Indonesian Government, despite its policy of neutrality, to take steps against Jeft wing leaders."
Policy of new Government
The Primo Minister. Dr. Hatta,
has declared that if Indonesia wanted to combat Communism, it could do more by concentrating on recon- struction and keeping
prace within its own borders, than by sending forces to Korea,
Observers believe that the new Government which is expected to be forined after the Unitarian State is proclaimed, will not abandon the policy of neutrality,
