Deze brochure bevat een schat van gegevens, moeizaam verzameld en op orde gezet, wer de staatkundige indeling, regeringeper!lDllen enz. van Indonesie, kort v66r de souvereiniteitsoverdracht. Het zou j8llDller zijn indien de kennis van hoe het geweest was zonder m~er verloren raakt en men straks verbaasd opkijkt bij het horen b.v. van de aanduiding "T.B.A.-gebieden". Hoe dit ook zij, ik meen met U persooru.ijk een exemplaar aan te bieden van het manuscript, waaraan ik volledigheidshalve een kaart van de staatkundige indeling van het toenmsJ.ige Indonesill heb gevoegd, toch nog een juiste, goede en waardige bestemming te geven voor alle documentaire arbeid, moeite en zorg, besteed aan de ~stelling van een dergelijk uit eell aeschiedkundig oog­ punt beschouwd, ni&t-onbelangriJk lIIBJlUBc:dpt.
