Köln, March 10 , 1966

Dear Henry,

It is already a long time ago that you have heard something
from me. From the East-West Center in Hawaii, I went with my
family to Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), where I became Head of the
Department of Malay Studies of the University of Malaya.
It is now already 8 years that I have not been back in Indo-
nesia. You can imagine that I still do not feel the urge to
go home in the political and economical mess which Sukarno
has created during the last years. It is clear that the Indo-
nesian Government is furious because of my stay in Malaysia:
all my books, even those on Indonesian grammar and literature,
have been banned and my properties confiscated.

I am now on a 6 months study leave from the University of Malaya and guest of the Forschungsinstitut für Soziologie of the University of Köln (Prof. René König). The Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst has offered me a stipendium for 3 months, which will end on May 6, 1966. D

It is my intention to spend the other 3 months ( 6 May-15 August)
in the U.S.A., very likely with Prof. Robert K. Merton at Colum-
bia, New York.

I am doing research work for a book on the "Social and Cultural Problems of the 20th century", which will be a continuation of my studies on Values as integrating forces in personalit... society and culture ( finished at the Center for Advanced Studies in the Behavioral Sciences in Stanford, will be published this year by a combination of the University of Malaya Press and Oxford University Press; a German translation will be published by Dicker und Humblot, Berlin).

I hope during my study leave to be able to orient myself on
the literature on the achievements and conflicts of the 20th
centuries (science, technology and economics dominated) culture,
since the library of the University of Malaya in this respect
is very poor; furthermore to have discussions with people who
are interested in the same problems and to see as much as possi-
ble of the typical expressions and related phenomena of modern
culture.

I am lecturing at the University of Malaya on Modern Malay/
Indonesian language and literature, Social Philosophy and the
Social and Cultural Problems of the 20th century.

I inquired with Prof. Merton at Columbia about the possibility
of being a guest of his Dept. during the 3 months stay in Ameri-
ca. He replied that it would be very easy to arrange this,

but for the financial support he referred me to the Commission
on Educational Exchange. The Commission on Educational Exchange
in Kuala Lumpur, however, was not able to issue an grant
for me, since I am not a Malaysian citizen but a citizen of
Indonesia. According to the Commission I have to apply in Djakarta,
which is, of course, for the time being not possible.
I have further applied to the Asia Foundation,
to the Rockefeller Foundation and to the Asia Society,
but more or less the same objection arose.

It is because of this difficulties, that I wish to ask you whether you know of other possibilities for me to get some financial support for my planned 3 months stay in the USA.

My wife and children will stay and the financial support I need is only for my expenses in the USA, since the University of Malaya pays my return air-ticket to the USA.

I hope that I am not bothering you to much with this letter.

Dear Henry,

Thank you very much for your kind letter of March 25, 1966.

I will arrive in Cambridge from Europe about the 9th of May, will proceed further to Yale, where I will give a lecture for the Southeast Asian Studies at the 12th of May.

I hope to have my main stay in New York to do my research work and must be back in Kuala Lumpur again at the 15th of August.

The political development in Indonesia is indeed quite confusing. Even after the last events, still no clear thinking is discernible.

Looking forward to see you in Cambridge, with good wishes
