Dutch PM unveils Moluccan monument marking dark colonial chapter
Dutch PM Rob Jetten unveiled a monument to the Moluccan community on Wednesday after issuing a formal state apology for decades of mistreatment. Many Moluccans were brought to the Netherlands after Indonesia’s independence in 1949, after fighting alongside Dutch forces during the colonial era.
