George Galloway, founder of the worldwide Viva Palestina movement has arrived in Indonesia.

It is the start of a two week speaking tour of the Far East in support of the Right of Return of all Palestinians whose families were driven from the country by the Catastrophe of 1948 and subsequently.

Galloway will address public events in Jakarta and Bandung - birthplace of the Non Aligned Movement (NAM). He is scheduled to meet parliamentarians ministers and opposition leaders, including Mrs Megawati Sukarnoputri, the daughter of NAM founder member President Sukarno.

Galloway moves on to a similar programme in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on February 3.

Galloway was received on arrival by leading figures from the governing coalition party PKS and met later with representatives of Mrs Megawati Sukarnoputri's foundation.
