Het Nieuws van den Dag voor Nederlandsch-Indië was a Dutch-language newspaper published on the island of Java in the Dutch East Indies (modern-day Indonesia).
Originally called De Indische Courant (one of a number of papers with that name), it was published in Batavia from 1895[1] or 1896 to 1900[2] until it was renamed.
[3] One of the paper's contributors was Dutch author and critic of the colonial system Multatuli.
[4] The paper was known as conservative, and editorialized vehemently against the emancipation of the native people.
[5] In 1938, Willem Belonje became the editor in chief of the paper; he had earlier run De Indische Courant, in the 1920s.
