The Third Konfrontasi, by far the deadliest war in the island of Borneo has finally come to an end. All involved parties have finally come to a peace settlement, and have agreed to demilitarisation, non-aggression and a white peace.

A treaty has been signed in Samarinda in Estoreasian Borneo in order to settle the war in peaceful terms.

REMEMBERING THE LOST LIVES

Many however, that includes the parents, relatives, friends or loved ones of the martyrs of the war remain with sorrow, as they handle the fact that their loved one has died in this war.

Most casualties have been brought back to India, while some, who had been staying in Estoreasia for sometime, as a result even forming families in the island, were buried or cremated in a small military plot of Samarinda, now renamed to the Confrontasi War memorial, in memory of all the martyrs who gave their life to fight for the Indian and Estoreasian cause. Several Tanian casualties are still being held by Indian authorities, though are expected to be returned in exchange of casualties in the opposite side of the border as per the treaty.

A 21-gun salute has been held by the Far-Eastern Command of the Indian army in memory of all the militarymen who fought in the war from the Indian side at Chittagong. The national flag has also been bent to half-mast to honor the lost lives.

Additionally, any child of a martyr has been sanctioned by the state governments of far-Eastern India for free education till graduation.
