- The Chinese in Indonesia, Indonesian: Hoakiau di Indonesia, is a book by Pramoedya Ananta Toer published in 1960 by Bintang Press. In the book, Toer (who was Javanese) criticized discriminatory policies imposed on Chinese Indonesians. The book is based on a series of articles published on the front page of Jakarta's biggest selling daily newspaper at the time: Bintang Timur, published by . Toer, a humanist, engaged in political defiance and wrote essays addressing the importance of ethnic Chinese publishers in the promotion of the Malay language (at the time it was spoken of a very small minority of the Indonesian population) throughout the Dutch East Indies. Later he also spoke against the use of Javanese soldiers to "subdue the regions outside of Java". Pram endured the Japanese Occupation and was detained by the Indonesian Army during the Sukarno presidency for a year in the early 1960s because of the book and its support for ethnic Chinese and advocacy against their persecution. After the military coup of October 1965, his library was burned, his house was confiscated, and he was beaten. He was then imprisoned for 14 years, mostly on the remote island of Buru. The book was republished in Indonesia in 1998 after the fall of the Suharto. (en)
