I went there in the early '90s, on a boat that took us nearly 16 hours from Ambon. You can't help but be overwhelmed by the sense of history , amplified by the fact that Banda islands were very much isolated. One thing we noticed though, the locals weren't really happy with how Des Alwi were running (and owning) almost everything there. Corner
