LEIDEN, Netherlands: The Netherlands and Indonesia on Monday (Jul 10) hailed the return of hundreds of cultural artefacts taken — sometimes by force — during colonia
taken — sometimes by force — during colonial times as a major step forward in restitution efforts worldwide.
“We are really delighted. This is a very historic moment for both us, Indonesia, and the Netherlands. And the relationship between the two," said Hilmar Farid, director general of cultural heritage at Indonesia's Ministry of Culture. The Dutch government announced the return last week of the Indonesian treasures and looted artefacts from Sri Lanka. Sri Lankan Foreign Minister Ali Sabry welcomed the decision and said the Indian Ocean nation will work to preserve the items, including a richly decorated ceremonial cannon.
Cultural artefacts are handed back to Indonesia during a ceremony in Leiden, Netherlands, on Jul 10, 2023.
