...Bung (Brother) made his initial blunder when he decided not to reopen Indonesia's $3,000,000 pavilion at the fair because of "the open support given by the U.S. to the neocolonialist project of Malaysia." Moses immediately threatened to confiscate the place-particularly since the Indonesians still owe him some $250,000 to cover demolition costs when the fair ends. Cagily, the Indonesians stalled Moses by hinting that they were trying to get a New York entrepreneur to run the pavilion for them until the demolition money was raised.

There were those who feared that Sukarno was now in full collusion with Red China in a master plot to establish a Peking-Djakarta axis...
Balkanized Continent. Tsiranana, of course, was denounced as a neocolonialist stooge. Next on the list of outspoken orators was Ghana's leftist Kwame Nkrumah. In a two-hour meander through his customary wood lot, the Redeemer threw some insights into Africa's darker thickets. As it now stands, he said, Africa consists of "economically unviable states, which bear no possibility of real development." Nkrumah warned against the continent's "Balkanized nationalism." All true enough, but Nkrumah's solution was his usual Pan-African panacea-a union government, with guess who as President...
