Ya some Dutch citizens, or colonialists to some, were in limbo under Imperial Japanese iron fist rule in Indonesia. Like British folks at the time in Hong Kong. The Dutch surrendered I think 1 week after the bombing of the city of Rotterdam in 1940.
Go to Amsterdam and visit the Anne Frank house, eye opening. The Dutch were occupied first and free'd the last, April 1945.
