A book by Maximus Tipagau

Maximus & Gladiator Papua

A book about the life of Maximus Tipagau, from Papua’s central highlands to the Freeport mine.

The book tells how he got past the tight security at Freeport, convinced the company’s senior managers to hire him, and how he learned to advance from truck parking attendant to giant-haul-truck operator, and even to instructor for heavy-equipment operators whose trainees were university graduates.

Available as an e-book on Google Play Books (in Indonesian).
