This photo was taken as part of one of AJAR’s reunion visits, during the first moments when a Timorese mother was able to hold her daughter again, after being taken by an Indonesian soldier during the military occupation of East Timor and not heard from for over 30 years. Just try to imagine the emotions if it were you and it was your child that had been taken and lost for so long. I have been fortunate to be present during some of those reunions, which have provided the inspiration for my song Stolen Children to be launched this week.
