By looking at his large, tall physique, one would not guess Horst Henry Geerken, author of Hitlers Griff nach Asien, will be 83 years old this coming August. His voice is firm and his mind very clear in his responses to Tempo's questions on his book, containing hundreds of pages which he completed in five years.
From 1963 to 1981, Geerken was an expert for AEG Telefunken in Jakarta. It was Geerken who set up the national radio station, the Radio Republik Indonesia (RRI). He was also asked by Navy Chief Adm. R.E Martadinata to build the Navy's radio transmissions. After this contract of work in Jakarta ended, Geerken went home to Germany and lived in Bonn. But he would come back every year to Indonesia with his wife, Anette Braker, an expert in Malay language at Bonn University.
