Mandor affair
The Mandor affair was a series of mass killings carried out by the Japanese occupation forces in West Kalimantan in 1943 and 1944. Claiming to have uncovered a plot, the Japanese arrested and executed many of the region's leaders, including the sultan of Pontianak, Syarif Muhammad Alkadrie, and other Malay rulers, Chinese and Dayak figures. Thousands of victims were buried at Mandor, now a memorial site.
