Mr Coenraad – Menteng Dalam – Jakarta
Thursday, November 10th, 2011
I met Mr Coenraad in Menteng Dalam, Jakarta yesterday. A soft-spoken and wise gentleman, the mayor of his small neighbourhood, who told me about the time when Obama lived there with his Mum and how he believes, that the open-heartedness and broad-mindedness of that community might still be the base of his actions (despite the overall disappointment with him at present).
Mr Coenraad is part of Stephen Black’s great book on Obama in Jakarta:
Obama-Search-Words
