Djanganlah Memihak Moesoeh!

A propaganda poster created by Poesat Tenaga Peloekis Indonesia (P.T.P.I) in 1947 during the Dutch colonial war depicts a green soldier conversing with a man with a Dutch flag heart, symbolizing caution and betrayal as the man, though Indonesian, supports the Dutch. The text reads, "Djanganlah Memihak Moesoeh!" which translates to “Don’t side with the enemy!”. The poster is part of a scrapbook titled "We Struggle with Posters (P.T.P.I.)", containing reduced reproductions of P.T.P.I. posters from 1945-1947, addressing Indonesian and global issues.
