Mervyn, Janssens also suffered an embarrassing thing here, he defeated by the British and he must ratificate Tuntang Capitulation to give Indonesia to the British. He only served 6 months here, just to keep the Dutch dan France flag rising for a short time..(at that time Dutch is under France rule) Michael, thank you for the information, maybe Rooseboom had a special relationship with Denmark so he awarded by the Order of Danneborg?

Hi Mervyn, i'm not listed Raffles as a Dutch governor-general (see the first post), he listed on ''under British rule''.. After Tuntang Capitulation in 1811, Indonesia was under British rule.. Raffles sent to South East Asia under the command of Earl Minto.. His first base was in Bengkulu (Bencoolen), then he moved to Bogor/Buitenzorg on Java island (when he lived on Java he wrote ''The History of Java'', he also encourage the excavation of Borobudur, he was interested in Javanese culture) In early 1816 John Fendall replaced him, then Raffles was ordered to Penang.. Few months under J. Fendall, Indonesia returned back on Dutch governor-general van der Capellen.. I hope my explanation can make it clear.. Windu

wow, very nice U-Boot parts, I just saw some of the U-Boot part on 'Das Boot', and i like the radar and "soundwave hearing component'' of it..:cheers:

beautiful group, can you post the photo closer to the center of wehrmacht army service 18 years?? Windu

Yes, some of our history are linked.. Some of the gov-general not only had duties in Indonesia, the other example are Daendels (just after Janssens replacing him as gov-general, he became an officer in French Grand Army) and Sir Thomas Stamford Raffless (then he moved to Tumasik, or now is Singapore).. Regards, Windu

Hi Sandro, But i still curious what did he does in Surakarta Kasunanan Palace with Sinuhun Pakoe Boewono X.. Any political/economy business maybe?? ,, I only got this picture, and it also in compressed size.. Maybe there are some other photo on Tropenmuseum's collection, Netherlands.. Regards, Windu
