# 21 - Works by
Sobron Aidit
When I heard the sad news that exiled writer Sobron Aidit passed away on
February 10, I decided to try to figure out how best to find his work
online. These are the provisional results of a quick search.
For his most recent postings on various Yahoo groups, go to the lists
below. Use Yahoo's advanced search for each group, and enter his username (simonsobron)
as author. This omits postings that are discussions of his postings. You
can also narrow the search by using the subject lines he used to distinguish
among his frequent messages (such as puisi, cerpen, and the specific series
by title ).
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BelitungIsland/
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/apakabar/
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SM_Indonesia/
His earliest postings (from 1997-2002, on the original 'apakabar'
list). Go to: the 'apakabar' archive
here
To see a posting he wrote about his use of the original 'apakabar', go

There are a few postings by or about him on the
Indonesian-studies Yahoo list.
A website is

Kontemporer).
