Today 25th of April.. RMSday..
for me a rememberanceday for what my grandfather was fighting for.. a real republic..
unfurtunally they got screwed by the dutch gouverment...
This year it was kept in Amsterdam.. so i went..
It was a real meetingpoint, the whole time it went like.. hey..hi..hello..to aunts and uncles from all over the country.. and explaining why my dad wasnt there...
The whole day there were political speeches, but also culteral things like menari (traditional dance see pic), tifa ( traditional drum).
But the big dissapointment of today was...
NO MOLUCCAN FOOD!!!!
Everybody was in shock what??!! where is the Lemper, Namu namu,Sate, Gado Gado?
It's impossible a moluccan thing without food..Really people thats a uncommon thing for us...
but even though there was no food.. it was interesting to learn more about my roots..
Let me end the day like how they ended every speech..
MENA MURIA!
