Budget: $10 – $50 AUD
Search for and translate all articles by the Dutch foreign Correspondent Otto Kuyk written in West Papua for De Telegraaf in July - August 1969 during the "Act of Free Choice", which was a vote for independence organised by the United Nations.
The articles can be found in the newspaper database of the Royal Library of the Netherlands (Koninklijke Bibliotheek).

The advanced search for newspapers in Delpher is: https://www.delpher.nl/nl/kranten
Select in the drop-down menu of "krantentitel" the newspaper title "De Telegraaf".
Search by publication date: use "Periode", in the example below from 01-01-1969 until 01-01-1970.
You can enter search terms in the "Zoekterm" search bar. I used the search terms (papoea* otto) with an asterix. The Dutch spelling of Papua is Papoea, don't use Papua. Otto Kuyk's surname is sometimes spelled differently so the best search is just for his first name.
My search found 36 articles. We want all articles by Otto Kuyk that are about the West Papua Act of Free Choice.
Please tell us if it is the kind of work you can do, and if so, what cost basis we could expect for working with you.
Thank you.
