In the context of my filmproject about Franciscan missionaries from the Netherlands in Papua I visited in 2003 a village in the outback of Papua, called Timeepa. When we were about to leave the village, while saying goodbye to the village leaders, one of them gave me an envelop for our Queen Beatrix. Back home I sent the envelop to the queen, along with this video letter. When I visited Timeepa again in 2006 I did not come completely empty handed, but with a letter from the secretary of foreign affairs.
