Questions related to Sumatra
Last year I found a text in German in which Salomon Müller describes how he climbs Mount Singgalang in Sumatra, sees a pygmy squirrel on a mossy tree, and shoots it. I shared the text with a friend, who, like me was very excited about the finding. Since then she has lost the email in which I sent her the text, as have I, and I have absolutely no idea where I found the German text. I have searched as much as I could but not a trace of this text. Plenty of Dutch writings by Müller but not the detailed description in German of his ascent of Mt Singgalang. Am I losing my marbles or does that text indeed exist?
in Batubahara Kingdom never mentioned about Sultan Zainal Abidin Muazam Sah, but his name was written in coins that found in batubahara residency nowadays

Hi.
I'm Koryu Kawatani belonging to Mitsubishi UFJ Research & Consulting Co., Ltd. in Japan.
Now, I plan to research the introducing possibility of co-generation in Indonesia. Is there any plan to apply the biomass energy for co-generation in Indonesia?
Could you please teach me if there is any government policy about introducing Co-generation in Indonesia (especially Sumatra, Sulawesi, and so on.)?
Thanks in advance.
Knaf plants grow a lot in Indonesia, the location is in Sumatra and water hyacinth. in this case we can make it for the needs of home industry and textile industry. And we can also make brake canvas or clutch plate linings. In this study, I will analyze the strength chart using the impact and also see how to use the Metallurgical microssocope.
Film/Psychology Review was founded in 1980 as a semiannual journal edited by Roy Huss, chair of Film Study Program at Queens College NY. It featured as vol. 4, continuing Psychocultural Review (vol.1-3 ed. by Kenneth Burke, Arnaldo Rascovsky, Esther Mennaker). However, only two issues were published in 1980; then it was not continued. It was hypothesized that this rupture has been caused by the "untimely death" of the editor, Roy Huss - but Huss mysteriously disappeared, probably falling victim to a crime, during a trip to Sumatra with a friend in January, 1983. As this was an unforseeable event, I ask myself what happened to Film/Psychology Review, a journal started with so much enthusiasm, in 1982? - If there is any enthusiast out there who knows more about it, I would be most grateful for any help.
I would like ask for help with ID of two trees. My study site is North Sumatra province, primary montane forest (ca. 1500 masl). I can provide pictures of leaves, fruits, bark etc. Because of high resolution and larger number of photos I would appreciate email contact. Thank you a lot! tomas.busina0@gmail.com
