2) West Papua Searches Far for Rights

Sunday, December 29, 2013 - 08:12Inter Press Service

SYDNEY, Dic 29 (IPS) - The indigenous struggle for liberation in West Papua on the western half of the island of New Guinea in the south-west Pacific, with the loss of thousands of lives, is far from ending. But, despite political uncertainties, a united coalition of pro-independence leaders has reignited hope of freedom by galvanising the support of a Pacific Islands inter-governmental organisation.

Indigenous Melanesian resistance to Indonesian governance of West Papua dates back to a United Nations supervised Act of Free Choice on independence in 1969 that was criticised as fraudulent after less than one percent of the population was selected to vote. That resulted in a vote for Indonesian integration.

In April this year the West Papua National Coalition for Liberation (WPNCL), representing 29 pro-independence organisations, applied for membership of the Melanesian Spearhead Group (MSG). The inter-governmental group comprises the Melanesian states of Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and the Kanak Socialist National Liberation Front (FLNKS) of New Caledonia with headquarters in Port Vila, Vanuatu.[pullquote]3[/pullquote]

“Support within the Melanesian region is vital to building a strong foundation for gaining international support and recognition,” Dr John Ondawame, WPNCL’s Vice-Chairman in Vanuatu told IPS. “The struggle of the people of West Papua is no longer an internal Indonesian issue.”

The West Papuan coalition was, for the first time, invited as official guest to the Melanesian leaders’ summit held in Noumea, New Caledonia, in June. Indonesia, which has MSG observer status, was also present.

During an address to the summit, Ondawame called on the Melanesian group to support the re-inscription of West Papua onto the United Nations decolonisation list and send a fact-finding mission to the Indonesian provinces to investigate human rights abuses.

The meeting ended with Melanesian leaders endorsing the “inalienable rights of the people of West Papua towards self-determination” and efforts to raise concerns about atrocities with the Indonesian government.

It was announced that a foreign ministers’ visit to the Indonesian provinces would take place within six months ahead of a decision on West Papua’s membership of the MSG. But, although Indonesia invited Melanesian leaders to Jakarta to be briefed about developments in West Papua, an MSG-led visit to the disputed territories has not taken place.

An MSG Secretariat spokesperson in Vanuatu advised IPS that “dates for the mission to Indonesia are still being discussed,” and members are keen for it to occur in early 2014.

Ondawame added that “so far Jakarta has not provided any invitation letter for the team to visit the respective territories.”

Indonesia has long claimed that West Papua is an internal matter, but the suffering of its indigenous population is stirring growing solidarity amongst Melanesians in the Pacific Islands.

In 2001, the Indonesian government responded to grievances by granting special autonomy to the provinces of Papua and West Papua, and increasing funding to the region, which amounted to more than 190 million dollars last year. It recently appointed a government unit to address infrastructure, public service and social issues.

However, West Papuans still suffer severe socio-economic hardship and have few freedoms. Twenty-seven percent of people in Papua and 31 percent in West Papua live in poverty, compared to 13 percent in East Java and 3.7 percent in Jakarta.

The Indonesian military controls civilian life and is regularly accused of killings, brutality, corruption and involvement in drug smuggling and illegal logging activities. Last year Amnesty International reported that 90 political activists were imprisoned for peaceful political activities and “security forces faced persistent allegations of human rights violations, including torture.”

“West Papua’s struggle for independence is not just West Papua’s struggle, but Melanesia’s struggle, and the people of Melanesia must take ownership,” said Fred Mambrasar of the civil society group, Melanesian United Front in Papua New Guinea.

Up to 500,000 West Papuan lives were lost in the past 50 years due to Indonesian military and government policies in the territory, according to a University of Sydney report.

During the past six months public demonstrations in support of West Papua have increased across the region. A concerned group of indigenous people from Australia and West Papua sailed to West Papua in September in a Freedom Flotilla that was a symbolic voyage to the shores of the Indonesian province to highlight issues of freedom and justice.

In Papua New Guinea, the Melanesian United Front launched a campaign and petition to boost public pressure, and urban demonstrations were supported by Port Moresby’s Governor, Powes Parkop. A letter of international solidarity signed by 98 international and Pacific non-governmental organisations was sent to the MSG in October.

Politically West Papuans see hope in the MSG’s promotion of decolonisation elsewhere in the region, such as in East Timor, New Caledonia and French Polynesia, and the resolute support of Vanuatu’s leadership in recent years.

In September, Moana Carcasses, Vanuatu’s Prime Minister, called on the United Nations General Assembly to “rectify some historical errors” and appoint a special representative to investigate human rights abuses and political issues in the beleaguered territory.

But the Melanesian United Front’s Patrick Kaiku is concerned that “observer states, such as Indonesia, which wield significant diplomatic resources and experience, will dictate the terms of West Papuan membership in the MSG if they are allowed to exert their influence.”

“The independence of the MSG must be maintained,” he asserted.

Papua New Guinea, an influential Melanesian state with observer status at the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), has substantial trade ties with Indonesia, and also security concerns about its shared land border. In June its leaders accepted an invitation to business talks in Jakarta instead of attending the MSG Leaders summit. Solomon Islands leaders were briefed separately by the Indonesian government on developments in West Papua during a bilateral visit in August.

However, Ondawame is confident his coalition has “won the diplomatic battle in the region” and that an unstoppable political momentum has begun. He remains adamant that the MSG holds the key to progressing political dialogue and addressing a human rights crisis that many believe has been met with silence from the international community for too long.

2) Manokwari ‘calm’ after resident clash

Nethy Dharma Somba, The Jakarta Post, Jayapura | Archipelago | Mon, December 30 2013, 10:09 PM

The situation in Manokwari, the capital of West Papua, is calm once again after a clash between residents occurred on Sunday, but many kiosks and stores have not yet resumed their activities.

“The situation has calmed down and no more clashes have occurred. Many security officers remain on guard,” Anis, a Manokwari resident, told The Jakarta Post on Monday.

However, most Manokwari people are still afraid to return to their activities despite the situation being relatively quiet.

“Markets are not yet open to the public. Kiosks and stores nearby the incident site last night have not yet resumed their normal activities. This is really disrupting the activities of those who want to go shopping,” Yan Christian Warinussy, a legal expert from Manokwari, told the Post.

As earlier reported, a clash between Manokwari residents erupted in Sanggeng Market at 10:30 p.m. local time on Sunday. The incident began when a local resident, reportedly drunk, asked Zainuddin, a kiosk owner in the market, to give him some money. He insisted on entering the kiosk even though he had already been given the money, inciting a clash between residents.

Two people – La Amin and Yansen Maryen – died in the clash.

“La Amin died after he was tortured by a group of people who were allegedly drunk. He was taken to the Navy Hospital [RSAL] but did not survive,” said Papua Police spokesperson Adj. Sr. Comr. Pudjo Sulistio. Meanwhile, Yansen’s body was found near Sanggeng Market after security officers broke up the fight.

Yan said the police must take tough action and bring the perpetrators to justice. “The perpetrators must be held responsible. There must be a tough action taken against those who took the lives of others,” he said. (ebf)

But really Timika not like it , because it actually Timika one -on-one laid a good area if he is one -on-one fairly safe area .

A project from one of the world’s most isolated places is helping to empower women across Indonesia.

Shanti Benjamin

UPDATED YESTERDAY 5:41 PM

The remote village of Jagara deep in Indonesia’s eastern-most province could be among the least developed places on earth.

The mountainous region in Papua is only accessible by air and is not often visited by outsiders.

While Indonesia as a whole may be experiencing economic growth, parts of Papua and West Papua provinces are lagging behind. In these remote areas around 40 per cent of households live below the poverty line - double the national average.

Despite looking like a tropical paradise, women living in the region have little say over their lives and families.

"It was our traditional practice that the men were the ones making the decisions," Magda Wetapo says. "We didn't question it because it was our tradition. If we tried to change these traditional practices we knew something bad would happen to us, like we would get sick. So we accepted it."

But a new UN project says it is trying to break down those barriers and change the future for Papuan women. In Magda's village, the UN's International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) say they are teaching women how to grow vegetables.

It's part of a wider program run by the IFAD. IFAD say communities are asked to define their own problems and come up with solutions. They are then given training and can access grants to make their ideas become reality.

IFAD say one of the big problems for Magda's village was how to increase their income. It took some time to convince the male leaders that women could earn that money.

"Before the project, we were still living in a traditional way. Women lived under the control of men," Esalek Lani, traditional village leader, says. "But when the project came to us, women got a chance to earn money and we are thankful for this."

After the vegetables are harvested women take the long trek to the markets where they sell their produce. Magda says the program has quadrupled her income and she now wants to save to send her son to university.

"I feel proud because our lives have changed so much and I'm very happy," she says

Papuan's often work alone. But this program encouraged the formation of groups to work together and for the first time women formed a group free from male dominance. It became a place where they could arrange training, elect their leaders and design their own budgets.

Ron Hartman is the Indonesian programme manager for the International Fund for Agricultural Development. He says the project works because it uses local solutions rather than imposing foreign concepts onto local problems.

"Papua itself is quite a challenging environment. It's very remote. Culturally, it is very different to other parts of Indonesia. The difference this project I think has made is that it's been tailored specifically for Papua, West Papua and the populations therein," he said.

"It's different in terms of the community development approach. It uses the social structures that are actually on the ground rather than transposing something from outside on them, but the main point is that it really buys into the potentials and supports the potentials they have in agriculture which is so important for their livelihoods."

IFAD say the pilot project is running in 410 villages in Papua and the Indonesia government is considering replicating it across the country.

By ADMIN | Published: DECEMBER 29, 2013

PT Agriprima Cipta Persada is going ahead with its oil palm plantation in Muting even though it has been turned down for a permit.

3) RI sees increase in number of poor people: BPS

The Jakarta Post, Jakarta | Business | Thu, January 02 2014, 11:07 PM

The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) has recorded that as of September 2013, the number of poor people in Indonesia reached 28.55 million or 11.47 percent of the Indonesian population, higher than the figure recorded in March 2013.

“In March 2013, it was recorded that the number of poor people reached 28.07 million or 11.37 percent of the total population. So, there was an increase in people living in poverty of around 480,000 people during March-September 2013,” said BPS head Suryamin in Jakarta on Thursday, as quoted by Antara news agency.

He said 300,000 out of this 480,000 lived in urban areas while the remaining 180,000 people were in rural areas.

Suryamin said that among factors that led to the increase in poverty was high inflation that reached 5.02 percent due to increases in fuel prices in June 2013 and the price of rice which experienced increases nationally.

“Moreover, in the period of March-September 2013, retail prices of several food commodities experienced increases such as chicken, which increased by 21.8 percent; eggs, 8.2 percent; and red chilies, 15.1 percent,” said Suryamin, adding that an increase in open unemployment in August 2013 was also a leading factor in the increasing levels of poverty.

The BPS reported that the highest percentages of poor people were in Maluku and Papua, at 24.24 percent and in Kalimantan, 6.66 percent.

The highest number of poor people, however, was in Java, amounting to 15.55 million people, while the lowest was in Kalimantan, with only 980,000.

During the period of March-September 2013, the poverty line increased by 7.85 percent, from Rp 271,626 (US$22.27) per capita per month in March to Rp 292,952 in September. (ebf)

1) Extended 'holiday' doesn't bode well for Indonesia relations

ROSS TAYLOR
THE AUSTRALIAN
JANUARY 04, 2014 12:00AM

TONY Abbott has arrived back in Australia after holidaying with his family in the French Alps over Christmas. Meanwhile, Indonesia's ambassador to Australia, Nadjib Riphat Kesoema, continues his holiday in Indonesia as a result of being recalled by his government over Australia's response to the spying revelations late last year.

This "ambassadorial holiday" is in its seventh week; a worrying sign that the bilateral relationship is becoming more ambivalent as the weeks roll by, as both countries focus on domestic issues dominated by Indonesia's upcoming presidential elections and the Coalition government's challenge to fix Labor's economic mess.

In the meantime, most of us are still enjoying our holidays, with many heading to Bali.

But the reality facing Australia and the Abbott government is that, despite the positive rhetoric about "close and meaningful relations" between Indonesia and Australia, many Australians still see Indonesia from a very Anglo-Saxon perspective and with an overriding suspicion about our northern neighbour.

Yet Indonesia has changed during the past 15 years, having evolved into a dynamic and robust democracy, something every Australian should give a great sigh of relief about.

Indonesia still faces huge challenges, including corruption, lack of infrastructure, poverty and the critical need to control any rise in Islamic militancy through the archipelago. A close relationship with its neighbours, including Australia, is important to its continued path to becoming an economically strong - and socially stable - nation.

In terms of our regional security, Australia has an enormous investment in this long-term outcome. The reason we hand out so much aid money to Indonesia is that, as a prosperous and First World neighbour, we want to be benevolent, but also aid money works in our national interest.

Yet every time we don't get what we want, the calls are the same: withdraw aid if they cause us grief. It's a bit like the parent who threatens to withdraw funding to their son or daughter at university every time they have a family disagreement. Patronising and selfish. Is it any wonder some senior Indonesians suggest to me that it may be better if Australia did withdraw our aid funding so the relationship could mature beyond this level of pettiness?

In business and commerce we continue to enjoy close relations with Indonesia, but our mutual trade is still comparatively "small chips". For years, Indonesia has been looking north for trade and investment opportunities, while we focus on China and "our very best friend in Asia", Japan.

We talk often about stronger trade links, including restoring the live-cattle trade with Indonesia. There are some positive signals from Jakarta but we still see the rebuilding of this vital trade from a perspective of "we sell, they buy".

The present malaise in the bilateral relationship will affect the significant opportunities for creating genuine partnerships with Indonesia to build a fully integrated supply chain where Brand Australia could add value to our beef for re-export, from Indo-Australian operated companies in Indonesia, to other countries through Asia and the Middle East.

There is probably no better example of how close partnerships can benefit both Indonesia and Australia than the model developed by our respective national police forces.

The Australian Federal Police and Indonesia's National Police systematically demolished terrorist groups such as Jemaah Islamiah, which was responsible for the Bali bombings.

These two organisations continue to enjoy close and effective relations, working on a range of important issues including training, people-smuggling and terrorism. But this relationship needs close government co-operation to be restored soon to maintain the effectiveness of our joint policing, which also helps keep us safe while holidaying in places such as Bali.

The political malaise that continues may not dominate our thinking during this holiday break but the ramifications of a longer-term cooling of our relationship will not only affect Indonesia but all Australians as well.

The recent spat with China over its ongoing dispute with Japan was a good example of where Indonesia and Australia, as regional partners, could have voiced our valid concerns jointly to China in a far more diplomatic, yet effective, way. But it was not possible to do that when the core relationship and trust between our two nations was not there.

We need each other as we both walk the otherwise lonely regional path between our economic dependency on China and our security allegiance to the US and Japan.

In a recent article, former Labor leader Mark Latham wrote that Indonesia was "just a two-bit player" and the best strategy for Australia would be to keep it "at arm's length".

Sadly, as Indonesia becomes more inwardly focused, the mutual ambivalence may become an undesirable feature of our bilateral relationship.

The reality is, however, that both countries need each other, and the future security of the region and our respective futures are inextricably linked, despite our differences.

Ross Taylor is president of the West Australian-based Indonesia Institute.

2) Hawke government docs reveal risk of war between PNG and Indonesia

Updated 3 January 2014, 12:43 AEST

The Australian National Archives has released ten thousand previously secret cabinet documents from the years 1986 and 1987.

The papers revealed a variety of matters, including the Australian government's concerns over tensions in the relationship between Papua New Guinea and Indonesia.

Now Emeritus Professor in Strategic Studies at the Australian National University, back in the late 1980s Paul Dibb was the Director of the Defence Intelligence Organisation.

He provided advice to the cabinet and warned Australia could lose its entire army - some 30,000 soldiers - if it was required to support PNG in a military conflict along the border with Indonesia.

Presenter: Catherine Graue.

Speaker: Paul Dibb, professor of strategic studies at the Australian National Univeristy.

DIBB: The late 1980s were a time of considerable concern about where the Papua New Guinea-Indonesian border was going. There had been 10 or 12,000 refugees fleeing from what was then called Irian Jaya across the border into refugee camps that were large and causing problems for Papua New Guinea to sustain them. The issue had also been warmimg up over many years. I mean the so called Free Papua Movement which was based along the border on the Papua New Guinea side of the Irian Jaya-Papua New Guinea border had been active on and off since the early 1970s. And that was my clear remembrance as head of the National Assessment staff in the late 1970s. It came to a bit of crisis in 79 when there was only about eight people cleared in Canberra to understand that we had some fairly firm information coming from a covert source in Jakarta that the Indonesian military under General Benny Murdani were getting fed up with this movement of the OPM, the Free Papua Movement, using the protection of being on the Papua New Guinea side of the border and then crossing and then occasionally killing and attacking Indonesian troops. And we took that in the late 70s very seriously. So through the 70s, right through to the late 80s, there were these issues and they were essentially to do with the border, the activities of the OPM, and seen from the perspective of the Indonesian side a situation where they found that this was starting to become intolerable. The 1987 White Paper, which you are aware of, the cabinet documents relating that in my recollection have attached to them the so called Dibb Report which I wrote for the then defence minister, Kim Beasley, about the defence of Australia. There was a classified version of that report which dealt with certain credible contingencies, and there was a highly-classified annexe to that report that was never made public in which I warned the Australian government that if we ever faced a major Indonesian military attack across the border with Papua New Guinea we would have to make our minds up on the contingency of the day. But, and this is the essential point, my advice to the then defence minister Beasley was we could lose the entire Australian army of some 30,000 at the time in the top one tenth of the border between Vanimo and Green River. And we would have no chance of holding that militarily and that would then leave the Australian government of the day with one serious alternative; and that would be to escalate it to strikes of a more serious nature against Indonesian logistics and military centres.

GRAUE: And how was that advice of yours received?

DIBB: I never go one response to it (laughter)..

GRAUE: So, in your opinion, how concerned was the Australian government really that relations between Indonesia and Papua New Guinea could deteriorate so much so that it would be forced to step in, and be drawn into a conflict like you've just described?

DIBB:Look, we shouldn't exaggerate it. As you've read from the cabinet documents and I had a hand -- by this stage I was deputy secretary of defence for strategic policy and intelligence -- in drafting some of that advice and that was our reaction would depend on the situation at the time. In other words, we would not be in the business of encouraging Papua New Guinea to do and pursue provocative acts that could end up in armed conflict. Not only between Indonesia and Papua New Guinea, but clearly given Australia's commitment to Papua New Guinea and its historical and colonial connections, the likelihood we would have to do something about it. With all the dangers that I have mentioned about the length of that border, which from memory is something like 700 kilometres long, and extremely difficult country and whether we would want to escalate into full scale conflict with Indonesia.

It is true that at the time, I became aware many years later when General Murdani had been sacked a minister of defence by the Indonesian Suharto government of the time, and I'm talking here early to mid, more like early 1990s, in a private conversation with me in Australia, he acknowledged that there were serious contingencies in the late 70s along the lines I mentioned of once and for all going across the border in military strength on the Indonesian side and making a sanitised zone if you like. He looked at me with as smile on his face and said, he raised with the 'old man' -- meaning president Suharto -- and Suharto said to General Murdani, then minister for defence in Indonesia, we are too busy in East Timor.

GRAUE: There was concern I understand, revealed in these documents, about the ability of the PNG government to handle the situation, and perhaps if it was mishandled by either side, but particularly by the Papua New Guinean government that could have really led to serious issues.

DIBB: Yes. There were serious concerns, as you say. It was not a huge length of time after independence. We had agreed with Papua New Guinea about some principles of helping them in certain military contingencies. And that by the way extended to if we were invited, and let me stress that, if we were invited, to contingencies in which the Papua New Guinea Defence Force mutinied.

And indeed, one such contingency occurred in the late 1980s in which Rabbie Namaliu who was then prime minister rang Bob Hawke, our prime minister at the time, in some agitation that there was an open riot occurring between the Papua New Guinea Defence Force and the Papua New Guinea police in a drunken party they had one Saturday night and that the defence force was breaking into the armoury and getting hold of the weapons. We had a meeting of the augmented chiefs of staff committee at the time, which I attended as deputy secretary, and we looked seriously at what we might do if that situation got out of hand and escalated and the Papua New Guinean government was not able to control its own military. In the end, it petered out and we had to do nothing. But as you know it was a continuing running sore and you've seen in more recent years, and that is the dependability of the Papua New Guinea Defence Force as a disciplined armed force subject to democratic direction and governance.

1) Police told to be proactive in conflict-prone regions

The Jakarta Post, Jakarta | National | Sun, January 05 2014, 2:41 PM

The Indonesia Police Watch (IPW) has called on the National Police (Polri) to be proactive in strengthening security and maintaining public order in six regions deemed the most prone to social conflicts, particularly ahead of the 2014 elections.

The six regions are Central Java, Jakarta, North Sumatra, Papua, South Sulawesi and West Java.

“In 2013, 24 social conflicts in Papua claimed 59 lives, including that of three police officers and nine Indonesian Military (TNI) personnel, and injured 92 other people,” IPW chairman Neta S. Pane said in Jakarta on Sunday as quoted by Antara news agency.

He said most of the social conflicts in Papua were between residents and groups. “The most concerning incident was a riot that broke out after the final match of amateur boxing tournament Nabire Regent Club in July 2013 in which 18 people were killed,” said Neta.

West Java ranked the second province most prone to social conflicts. Student brawls and biker gang brawls in the province resulted in the highest number of deaths among all the regions.

“As many as 10 deaths were caused by student brawls while nine other deaths were due to biker gang attacks,” said Neta.

“If such the condition continues, it will contribute significantly to security problems in the political year of 2014,” said Neta.

“Polri needs to anticipate social conflicts so that they do not disrupt the presidential and legislative elections,” he went on. (ebf)

2) In Papua , Violence Against Women Still High

Written by redaksi_binpa

Suicide often occurs in Manokwari , do women victims of domestic violence are never saved and no longer able to continue his life , "revealed Fien told reporters yesterday .Jayapura - The high suicide rate that afflicts young women in Papua , Human Rights Working Network woman claimed Papua result of the impact of human trafficking , domestic violence (domestic violence ) chronic , as well as sexual violence . No doubt , the three factors that become the mode for these young women to end his life .

TIKI Coordinator Network of Women Human Rights in Papua , Fien Jarangga revealed , based on reports of women activists and human rights activists for Manokwari city as well as a union adviser Arfak Manowakri Indigenous women , there are at least two cases of suicide and attempted suicide that occurred within the last three months in Manokwari city . Mentioned Fien , perpetrators were female victims of domestic violence , sexual assault and human trafficking are neglected and never received any help or support . " They reportedly committed suicide by drinking poison insect killer .

It is said Fien , Manokwari District Attorney informed that cases of domestic violence and sexual abuse of children / young women who reported still quite high at an average of 5 cases per month .

In addition , also found shades sexist verbal abuse and racist by local officials against any Papuan women . As per the data available in October 2013 , the National Commission received a complaint of a Papuan women who experienced verbal abuse in the form of ridicule degrading sexual identity as primordial identities as women and indigenous Papuan women .

" Verbal violence is carried out by a local official , namely a Regional Secretary in the district Supiori , Biak , " he said .

Meanwhile , also found searches , threats and beatings against women , women's human rights lawyers and activists . Women activists and human rights of women workers in

Abepura , Timika and Wamena reported intimidation , raids and beatings by law enforcement officials and community activists terhadapperempuan - women and women human rights defenders .

" Medio August and September 2013 from Wamena reported a female lawyer and a male human rights activists of women experiencing violence and threats from the police and members of the public because they are defending human rights activities .

This creates fear and anxiety resulting in one of them left Wamena for a while and looking for a sense of security in other cities , " he said .

Connect Fien , did not stop there , in September 2012 a woman in her Timika reported experiencing verbal abuse and beaten by police officers who

searched his home and his son were allegedly looking for improvised explosive devices related cases associated with the activity of the National Committee of West Papua ( KNPB ) . Not only that , another woman also claimed his house was searched at midnight until about the early days by a group of men in uniform black , masked and armed barrel length that emit red light . The house was ransacked and the victim attended a few hours , the officers did not find what they are looking at the house and left residents terrified .

" Previously , a female student activists in Abepura raided and followed law enforcement officials for allegedly associated with the activity ( leader ) KNPB , " he explained .

According to Fien , these events led to the maintenance of a sense of fear , frustration and anger as a result of various acts of violence , shootings and killings unresolved . Community even women and women's rights activist partner National Commission for Women in Wamena and Timika reported that incidents of violence , shootings and homicides involving ordinary citizens and security forces , which continue to occur without properly and thoroughly resolved in the two cities that have preserved a sense of fear , disappointment and widespread anger among the public .

Recognized Fien , in the handling of these cases , community / family of the victim would prefer and give priority to traditional mechanisms as a way of settling the problem of domestic violence and other violence against women . Although it is recognized that the traditional mechanisms do not provide a sense of justice for the victim , and the victim mereviktimisasi impunity .

However , the community of women victims and survivors of domestic violence , especially in Wamena , states reject traditional mechanisms and desires that domestic violence cases are handled legally .

" Weak law enforcement for domestic violence cases . Police and the State Attorney Manokwari , Timika and the police and local government Biak acknowledge that domestic violence cases are often handled by custom . Law No.21 of 2001 on Special Autonomy used to legitimize customary settlement .

However , repeated domestic violence cases and cases of VAW and domestic violence involving two different tribes certainly handled legally . Especially with regard to cases of sexual violence against

child / adolescent daughter , law enforcement in a number of districts in Papua and West Papua ( Biak , Jayapura , Manokwari , Timika and Wamena Merauke ) states refused the customary settlement and seeks the highest possible sentence ( a maximum prison sentence of 8-12 yrs ) for a deterrent effect the actors and the general public , " he explained .

Fien give an example , Manokwari district police never initiated a recovery program for young women victims of violence , in collaboration with the National Commission on Children in Jakarta.

Unfortunately , the elimination of violence against women and girls is not a priority fulfillment Regional Head district level . Throughout 2011 and 2012, the National Commission for Women and TIKI network in a number of districts to advocate the elimination of VAW and the fulfillment of women's human rights through policy dialogue mechanism with the local government , among others, in Biak , Merauke , Manokwari , Timika and Wamena .

" But none of the head region ( Regent , Vice Regent or Secretary) of the district is willing to give time for policy dialogue on the elimination of VAW and the fulfillment of women's human rights responsibilities . Officials Agency / Bureau and Assistant District PPPA related government ever dialogue with the National Commission for Women and TIKI during 2010 to 2012 reported the limited capacity of human and financial resources to perform its duties optimally .

As a result, not much they can do when compared to the magnitude of the problem of violence against women and children in Papua , " he explained .

More clearly said Fien , neglect of basic rights of women survivors of state violence . documented in the report of the National Commission of Human Rights and its partners titled " Stop It : Testimonies of Papuan Women victims of Violence and Violations of Human Rights 1963-2009 " , reported that since their cases are reported and advocated at the district and provincial level until the end of 2013 there has been no follow- any further than the local government for the fulfillment of the rights of victims to truth , justice and reparations .

"The condition of the survivors has not changed , neglected , stigmatized and some of them inedible disease and age are increasingly frail .

This was reported by a community of survivors and human rights defenders from Biak , Genyem , Keerom , Manokwari , Merauke , Sarmi , Timika and Wasior . And towards the end of 2012 , two survivors of state violence Biak , the Biak case of Dengue victims and survivors of military operations in Biak 1960s , which still continue to expect to receive back his rights for the Truth , Justice and Recovery , has passed away due to illness he suffered , " he said .

1) SUSPECTED THE ATTACKERS OF POLICE STATION WERE NOT TPN/OPM

Posted by admin on Sunday, January 5, 2014 · Leave a Comment

Jayapura, 5/1 (Jubi) – The police station attacked by Unknown Troupe in Kulirik, PuncakJayapura, Papua on Saturday (4/1) around 15:45 Papua time got some attentions from Imparsial, the human rights NGO.

Executive Director of Imparsial, PoengkiIndarti, via email stated that it is obviously dangerous if this attack was related with the execution of the future legislative and president elections. Since the armed group has been exploited by certain of political elites for their interest.

“If this group attacked by order for certain interest, it suspected that they did it for a reward. The attacking action in exchange for the political purposes is the act of gangster. If they were the true freedom warriors, they would not work for money and for the winning of certain elites. The action of the armed group was no longer the action of Independence’ fighters, they are not different with the gangsters,” said Indarti through her email, Sunday (5/1).

According to her, to uncover the violence actions in Papua, the police must pursue and arrest the armed group but still respect on the civil rights of people who live around their hiding location.

“It is a dilemma, there are crime suspects, but there are also people who live around their location. Thus people would experience the double traumatic. The intelligent service should more proactive to alert the police in order to prevent the violence when withdraw the weapons. Their role should be much larger in providing the information,” further she said.

The shootings in the area of Freeport Indonesia are to destabilize the security of Papua

Meanwhile, the series of shooting in the area of PT. Freeport Indonesia in the last year made Yan Mandenas, the chairman of Papuan Parliament from Fraction Pikiran Rakyat, speaks.

“Itwas not just happen, there must be another indication behind. There are certain parties who want to continue to destabilize the security in Papua. I suspect the shooting is a systematic scenario creates by certain groups. They are looking for the strategic location to get attention from the central government as well as from the world, “ said Yan Mandenas, Sunday (5/1).

2) Eight police firearms seized by armed Papuan group

Nethy Dharma Somba, The Jakarta Post, Jayapura | Archipelago | Sun, January 05 2014, 9:57 PM

Eight firearms belonging to police officers on duty at Kulirik Police post in Mulia district, Puncak Jaya regency, Papua, were seized by a group of armed civilians at around 4 p.m. local time on Saturday.

The seized firearms comprise two Kalashnikov (AK) rifles, one Mauser rifle, and five pieces of Assault Rifle 1 (SS1).

Papua Police spokesperson Sr.Comr. Pudjo Sulistio said an armed civilian group consisting of 20 people attacked the Kulirik Police post in Mulia, Puncak Jaya, on Saturday. He said that there were only two police personnel on guard at the post when the incident occurred.

“A violent struggle over the firearms took place but because the two police officers were outnumbered, they ran away and reported the incident to the Puncak Jaya Police precinct in Mulia,” Pudjo told The Jakarta Post on Sunday.

Together, with several Indonesian Military (TNI) personnel, the police’s Mobile Brigade (Brimob) members pursued the armed group who ran to the mountainous area. No fatalities were reported in the incident.

Separately, Puncak Jaya Police precinct chief Adj.Sr.Comr. Marselis said the carelessness of the police officers could not be ignored. Eight police personnel had been deployed to the Kulirik post. There should have be seven officers at the post as one police personnel had to leave for Jayapura because his mother had passed away.

“But during the incident, there were only two officers while the remainder left the post for unclear reasons,” said Marselis, adding that the attack was allegedly perpetrated by Goliat Tabuni’s men, popularly known as the Yambi group.

He said the police were working with local leaders to persuade the group’s members to return the firearms. (ebf)

3) Police and Company Security Guard beat a man to Death while in Police Detention.

By ADMIN | Published: JANUARY 5, 2014

A man was beaten to death while in police detention by a local police officer and a man working for the Astra Group as head of security. The assault took place on New Year’s Eve in Okaba near Merauke. The Astra Group has plans for a massive sugar cane plantation which has met with opposition from local residents.

Papuan news website Umaginews.com reported that as a result of being beaten by police and security guards, the victim, a local resident known as Roby, suffered severe head trauma and his body was covered with blood. He died on the spot. This news was communicated by a local resident, Simon P, through Facebook.

In the Umaginews article Simon expressed the hope that NGOs, Human Rights Defenders, the National Human Rights Commission, Church Organisations, Journalists, and Papuan Activists would support efforts to advocate for this case in which a local resident had been killed by law enforcement officers, members of the Indonesian Police Force.

“The community need support if we are to bring accusations in this case”, Simon’s message continued.

Later communication with residents of Okaba confirmed the incident and offered some additional details:

Roby was originally from Sanggase village, and was being detained at Okaba police station because he was drunk, when he was set upon and beaten until black and blue by a local police officer called Max and an Astra security guard called Andri Paat. The victim was rushed to the local clinic, but his life could not be saved.

It is still not clear what was the cause of the assault, but it is plausible that this violence has some connection with the presence of a sugar plantation company in the area. PT Dharma Agro Lestari, a subsidiary of the Astra Group, is currently engaged in negotiations with local people to use their customary land. The victim was one of those opposing Astra’s operations, while Andri Paat, a local resident who had previously deserted the army, was employed to support the company.

As of Saturday afternoon, the community in Okaba remained anxious. The victim’s family had still not initiated any steps towards obtaining legal redress, possibly due to fear.

If a full chronology of events that evening can be obtained it will be posted here.

1) What’s next for Papua after the MSG diplomacy?

Budi Hernawan, New York | Opinion | Mon, January 06 2014, 10:54 AM

The 2013 Melanesian Spearhead Group (MSG) summit undoubtedly marked a historic moment on the long journey of Papua’s international diplomacy. During the top diplomatic gathering of the Melanesian countries, the Papuan representatives were invited for the first time.

While this political decision constitutes a breakthrough for the political impasse in Jakarta, the decision is still pending a follow-up visit by a foreign ministerial mission to Jakarta and Jayapura. The visit, however, is subject to the Indonesian government’s approval, not the MSG’s (The Jakarta Post, Oct. 26, 2013).

Papuan international diplomacy is not novel. If we look back to the second Papua Congress in 2000, it is one of the mandates that some 500 Papuan representatives entrusted to the Papuan Presidium Council (PDP).

This body consists of Papuan leaders who live inside and outside Papua. Over the last decade, however, the body has lost its key figures, who used to undertake international diplomacy.

The chairman, Theys Eluay, was kidnapped and assassinated by the Indonesian Army Special Forces. Viktor Kaisiepo, the PDP spokesperson for Europe, died in Holland, while Willem Zonggonau and Clemens Runawery, the PDP spokespersons for the Pacific, died in Australia and Papua New Guinea, respectively. Similarly, Agus Alua, who then became the speaker of the Papuan People’s Council (MRP), and Beatrix Koibur died in Jayapura.

In engaging the international diplomacy, we know that Papuans use the term “rectifying the history” to reclaim their silenced history of the transition of power of Papua in the 1960s. This part of history remains a contentious subject of dispute between Papua and Indonesia.

Supported by historical research, Papuans believe that the transition of power through the 1969 UN supervised plebiscite, PEPERA or the so-called the Act of Free Choice, was flawed. On the contrary, Jakarta holds the opposite narrative. It states that the transition was legal and internationally recognized due to the blessing of the UN General Assembly over the result of PEPERA.

The positions are not only at odds with each other but also have generated the history of violence in the last half-century.

Rectifying the history also suggests an element of demanding accountability of the international community for their participation in endorsing the result of PEPERA in 1969. While many may think that this call is utopian and unrealistic, the political landscape that enabled the second Papuan Congress was down-to-earth and real.

Indonesia was under President Abdurrahman “Gus Dur” Wahid who endorsed reconciliatory initiatives across the nation. There was a narrow window of opportunity for Papuans and they did not wait. Instead, they convened the Congress and interrupted the status quo of the world’s silence over the silenced Papuan history.

The reclaiming of the Papuan history is not limited to the area of diplomacy. It covers a broader sphere of Papuan lives. It translates into the revival of the Papuan indigenous culture. It inspires the integration of Papuan religious beliefs into formal religions. It inspires the ways in which Papuan rename their places of history and interest.

Let’s go back to the issue of diplomacy to see what would be the key challenges for Papuan diplomacy in the coming years. At least three major challenges we can identify.

The first is the existing Pacific diplomacy. Toward the end of the year we haven’t heard any further news about whether Jakarta has extended any specific date for MSG to visit.

Jakarta’s failure to receive an MSG visit will delay the deliberation of the membership of the West Papua National Coalition for Liberation (WPNCL). While the postponement would not stop the Papuan leaders, it would cause a major setback to their efforts to secure a formal position within the MSG.

The second challenge is the national political landscape. We know that both Jakarta and Jayapura have been busy in drafting the Special Autonomy Plus. It is framed to be an advancement of the existing Special Autonomy. Both the President and the governor of Papua believe that this package will provide greater room for improvement and it has to be done before the 2014 elections.

That is why both leaders sent their special envoys to travel overseas to persuade the Papuan leaders living in exile and also to inform the Indonesian diplomatic missions. This whirlwind will certainly suck most of the energy out of Jakarta and Jayapura. As a result, they may not want to get distracted with other issues.

This situation is likely to impede any further engagement with the Papuan peace initiatives promoted by the Papua Peace Network (PPN) and the Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI).

Similarly, the MSG proposal and requests from the UN Special Rapporteurs may not get any further traction.

The biggest challenge would be the global justice market itself. This market is already crowded and chaotic with wars in Syria, Libya, Central Africa, Democratic Republic of Congo, etc. We may ask a hard question: How can Papua compete with these issues, if it should?

While some would argue that the Papuan conflict is not able to attract world attention because of its low number of casualties, the world’s history shows the opposite.

We learn from the history of genocide in the 20th century that world leaders disgracefully failed to respond in time, even though they were bombarded with detailed information from the field.

For instance, currently the Central African Republic faces an imminent threat of genocidal killings between the Muslims and Christians. Four hundred people were already killed. Instead of using the word “genocide”, the world leaders prefer the term “mass violence” to label the ongoing carnage (New York Times, Dec. 9, 2013). This framing illustrates the reality that publicizing carnage will not necessarily mobilize the world leaders to take action to stop it.

When they do take action and even the UN Security Council deploys a UN peacekeeping force, this force does not necessarily have all necessary power and capacity to end violence and protect civilians.

Let’s take another example from today’s world: the UN peacekeeping force MONUSCO in the Democratic Republic of Congo. It took two years before the Security Council equipped the UN Peacekeeping force with the authority to fight back, which constitutes the first mandate that has ever been established.

In other words, Papuan diplomacy remains challenging. It has to navigate domestic, regional and international politics with different and often conflicting interests.

The Papuan leaders, however, are not naïve. They know the reality as they have struggled with it in the last half-century. They will continue working for the pelurusan sejarah of Papua regardless of their limited capacity and resources.

On the other hand, the Indonesian authorities are also well aware of the complexity of the world’s diplomacy. Given the strength of the state, they are in a much better position to continue their work to safeguard the state narrative of Papua.

Since the two positions remain at odds with each other, what can be done to solve it? There is no other option left but peaceful dialogue between Jakarta and Papua as the PPN has tirelessly promoted. Given the challenges mentioned above, the question is who will buy it this time?

2) Papuan Police Station Attacked

Tags: Papua, Papua Police, Papua police attack

Jayapura. A group of armed men attacked a police station in the Kurik district of Papua’s Puncak Jaya regency on Saturday, taking hold a number of guns and ammunition from the site.

According to reports, the group — made up of an estimated 20 people — outnumbered the two police officers who were at the post, as five other police on schedule that evening were conducting patrols in the surrounding areas.

“During the attack, the perpetrators took with them eight long guns and ammunitions,” said Sr. Comr, Pujo Sulistyo, Papua Police spokesperson.

According to him, one officer was at the station’s kitchen and the other was securing the post when the perpetrators broke into the station. Officers’ attempts to take back their guns failed as they were outnumbered.

“The two officers escaped through the backdoor to the river and then reported the incident,” he said, adding that a manhunt for the perpetrators has been launched.

“Members of the police as well as the military are still going after the men, even a team from the National Police has been deployed to help,” Pujo said.

Puncak Jaya district police chief Sr. Comr. Marselis told Jakarta Globe on Sunday that the perpetrators responsible for the attack are allegedly members of the Yambi Group under the leadership of Leka Telenggen. Leka is affiliated with the leader of the Free Papua Movement (OPM), Goliat Tabuni, who resides in Tingginambut district.

“The attackers are from the Leka Telenggen’s group from Yambi. They have dozens of members and are still under the leadership of Goliat Tabuni,” Marselis said, adding that the group had escaped to Yambi after the incident.

“[The Yambi group] consists of only a few dozen members, but they mingle well with local residents and have influenced residents to participate in their movement, which makes the situation very difficult,” he said, explaining the group’s strength and influence.

Human rights watchdog Imparsial raised concerns that the attack could be a deliberate attempt by a group of thugs trying to disrupt peace in Papua ahead of the legislative and presidential election set for April and July, respectively.

“If the attack has anything to do with the general elections, then this is definitely very dangerous, because it means a certain political elite has taken advantage of the armed men to fulfill their personal interests,” Imparsial executive director Poengky Indarti told the Globe on Sunday. “That could mean that the armed group are not people fighting for [Papua’s] independence but instead are no different from a group of thugs.”

Poengky added that the group could have been promised financial reward in return for their attacks. “If they are indeed fighting for independence, then they would not want to work for the sake of money or for the sake of any particular political elite,” he said.

According to Imparsial, acts of violence also became the background of the latest district chief election in Puncak Jaya and Puncak districts. “The violence was linked to the process of democracy that was ongoing at the time,” Poengky explained.

As such, he called on the police to ensure they hunted down and captured the group. “Arrest them, but at the same time respect the rights of local residents living in the areas surrounding the groups’ hiding place.”

He emphasized that going after the group behind the violence could be tricky, because local residents live around the area. “This could further amplify the residents’ trauma,” he said.

Intelligence officers should more actively involve themselves in ensuring such acts of violence do not continue to take place. “Intelligence officials should play an even greater role in giving information,” Poengky said.

Torrential downpours that have showered Papua for days have seen at least five killed and several others injured while across Indonesia other cities are warning of potential problems and advising people to take precautions.

The incident occurred on Saturday following a landslide in Sentani Hawai district.

The landslide took place at an excavation site belonging to Conny Pallo, who has been questioned by the police.

“There are three people with injuries and they have been rushed to the Yowari Hospital for medical treatment,” said Papua Police spokesperson Sr. Comr. Sulistyo Pudjo on Saturday. “Several eyewitnesses have been questioned about what happened.”

According to him, one of the injured, 22-year-old Yoas Taplo, sustained bruising on his left foot and his right eye, 24-year-old Fery Uopka sustained wounds on his head, left leg and foot, while another victim, 11-year-old Ahmad Khoirul, sustained injuries on his left leg.

Reports said the landslide also buried a number of houses trapping people inside.

Police have identified the bodies as Yance Monim, Fredi Monim and 5-year-old Dwi Junuardi.

Sulistyo said local search and rescue teams as well as the Sentani Kota district police immediately helped evacuate the victims to the Yowari hospital.

“Police have also set up a dedicated line to aid with the investigation,” he said.

A similar landslide occurred at the Wajib Senyum compound in South Jayapura on Tuesday, covering several houses in the area.

The tragedy resulted in the deaths of two pregnant women who were buried in the ruins.

Officials helping with the evacuation reportedly rushed the women to the Dr. Soedibjo Sarsdadi Marin Hospital immediately after they were found, but were pronounced dead on arrival.

This year’s rainy season has also become a cause for concern for residents living in Malang, East Java, who have been warned of floods and landslides.

According to M. Thoriq, chief of the housing and city planning for the city’s public works and building monitoring office, said six landslides occurred in Malang towards the end of 2013 and that the number would continue to rise with the recent weather conditions.

“Residential areas located near the Brantas River are especially prone to inundation,” Thoriq said on Sunday, as quoted by Tribunnews.com. “Riverside areas are crowded with houses and we are having a hard time organizing preventative measures.”

“We are calling on the public living in areas that are on the same level as rivers to be watchful in this kind of weather,” he added.

1) KNPB : SEIZURE OF EIGHT WEAPONS, PURE ACTION OF WEST PAPUA LIBERATION ARMY

Posted by admin on Tuesday, January 7, 2014 · Leave a Comment

Jayapura , 7/1 ( Jubi ) – “Weapons seizure on January 4, 2014 at the police station in Puncak Jaya is a pure guerrilla operations led by Tengamati Telenggen, a member of Papua Liberation Army ( TPN-PB) under the command of Gen Goliath, a commander of TPN-PB .

Victor Yeimo through official West Papua National Committee website ( KNBP) said there should be no speculation about who the perpetrators and what motives of guns seizure in Kulirik, Puncak Jaya, which has been going on for 10 years. In fact, this area has been ongoing armed struggle between TPN-PB and Colonial Indonesian military and police. The TPN – PB under the command of Gen Goliath Tabuni has repeatedly stated that the purpose of open warfare and guerrilla warfare is clearly to expel Indonesian colonial occupation from West Papua . Thus, he repetitively rejected any terms of unidentified person (OTK) , Paramilitary (GPK / B) , terrorists , and other designations that aiming to undervalue the struggle.

” Weapons seizure on January 4, 2014 at the Police Station, Puncak Jaya is a pure guerrilla operations led by Tengamati Telenggen, a member of TPN-PB, who has Gen Goliath Tabuni as a chief commander . This action is one of guerrilla tactics which always found in a war and struggle around the world. So, it is wrong when Poengky Indarti who does not know the situation in the field of Puncak Jaya named this guerrilla as gangsters or for the sake of money and elections , ” said Victor Yeimo .

According to KNPB , guerrilla TPN – OPM is not new, so the military/ police , NGOs , and all parties, especially local and national media no need to seek out the perpetrators, because the TPN / OPM is the actor who has always existed to fight though no elections or other colonial interests. Goliath repeatedly said that he and all the members are not fighting for food, drink, or money , but purely we fight for West Papua independence.

Goliath Tabuni is an official member of the TPN – PB under the command of Kelly Kwalik in the 90s to 2004. Then, in Puncak Jaya he was appointed as a regional commander and in 2012, at TPB -PB congress in Biak, he was again elected as the high commander. Goliath was vowed on December 14, 2012 in Tingginabut , Puncak Jaya . TPN – PB is a wing of the military defense of West Papua who fighting for West Papua independence.

According to the KNPB’s website , the terms of the perpetrator as OTK , GPK / B , Gangster and others would have a pivotal impact to the process of creating conflict resolution. These obscure terms also can be misused for the interest of rulers and military leaders. The parties who involved in protecting the key actor has tendency to maintain conflict.

Previously , Puncak Jaya Police , Chief Adjunct Senior Commissioner, Marcelis stated that actors attacking police station in kulirik district, Puncak Jaya is Telenggen Leka group. The Chief of Puncak Jaya Police identified these armed groups as maintaned group.
“They are a maintained group and involved to keep the road construction in Puncak Jaya, but somehow it happened,” said Marcelis, (5/1).

Marcelis also said Leka and Tengamati Telenggen with some of his friends took away the guns belonging to members of the Puncak Jaya district police, instead of Brimob . These actors are members of Goliath Tabuni . Currently, it’s been doing an approach towards indigenous groups and religious leaders , as well as the public to persuade Telenggen Leka and his colleagues to return the guns they took away.

Cendrawasih: This piece of Papuan batik features the province’s famous cendrawasih, or bird of paradise.

A walk through the batik shops in Mimika proves that there’s more to Papuan fashion than the traditional noken (woven bag) or the koteka (penis sheathe).

Local designers are making Papuan-style batik in bright reds, yellows and greens — a stark contrast to the subdued colors of Central Java, where the style came into fashion. Adorning local batik are local motifs and sacred symbols, ranging from crocodiles to cendrawasih birds of paradise and from spears to traditional tifa drums.

“In general visitors only know Asmat motifs,” Risma, one long-time batik vendor, said, referring to the tribe that inhabits the southwest corner of Papua. “Asmat motifs are identical to sacred symbols, such as statues and carved wooden shield with squares. The color is brown, with a mixture of soil and terracotta color. A lot of batik designs of other tribes and cultures complement each other”.

Nurhadi owns a batik shop on Jl. Budi Utomo in Timika. The 44-year-old discussed the nuts and bolts of wearing the clothing. “There are only three kinds of materials used for the type of batik typical to Papua: satin, cotton and silk. Buyers favor cotton batik very much. It is less expensive. It can absorb sweat.”

Gorgeous: Prices depend on the quality of the fabric, ranging from cotton batik, priced at Rp 65,000 a meter, to Rp 300,000 a meter for silk.

Colorful: Bows and arrows, traditional tifa drums and cendrawasih adorn this batik.

She said that the goods she sold were imported from Jayapura.

Meanwhile, mining giant PT Freeport Indonesia has gotten into the act, sponsoring corporate social responsibility programs that have backed exhibitions of Papuan batik in Jakarta and Jayapura and promoted local designers.

The firm has also collaborated with Jimmy Afaar, perhaps the most famous Papuan designer, to organize batik training sessions for women in Jayapura in 2011.

Ilham, who owns a batik shop on Jl. A. Yani, said that his monthly revenue could top Rp 15 million. “Many people purchase Papuan batik by the roll or meter for souvenirs on the way back home. At least 20 people visit the store each day.”

Meanwhile, Nurhaidi says that prêt-à-porter Papuan batik is readily available. “It is not only limited to dress shirts, tee-shirts and collared shirts. Bags and purses are available, too.”

Prices depend on the quality of the fabric, ranging from cotton batik, priced at Rp 65,000 a meter, to Rp 300,000 a meter for silk.

One woman with experience in making Papuan batik is Matelda, who has taught elementary school in Kuala Kencana since 2005. Previously, the 35-year-old worked for two years at her mother’s five-person studio, Batik Tulis Karya Putri Dobonsolo on Jl. Kemiri in Sentani, Jayapura.

Matelda said that her mother’s workshop has been producing printed, stamped or handmade Papuan batik with sentani motifs since 1996. Customers specify the designs desired and the raw materials are consigned from Yogyakarta and Surakarta, Central Java.

“The sentani motif is a bit different from other tribes and cultures in Papua,” she says. “The motif depicts a circular groove and its background is bit blue. The process of printing or painting is similar to other areas in Java. The basic materials are wax, a canting [wax pen], a small stove, paraffin, a small brush, a baking pan or casserole dish and an iron wok.”

She continues. “My mother’s workshop can produce three meters of handmade batik a day, 50 meters of printed batik a day, whilst the complicated motifs take two up to three days. Prices vary depending on the motifs and designs. Handmade batik is expensive. The complicated motifs and design are more expensive.”

Matelda, who is of Serui ethncitiy, the designs used for Papuan batik came from many tribes (suku) and were originally inscribed in bark, buildings, paddles, boats, caves and walls. Artists have imitated and preserved the designs until now.

Fitria, who heads the regency education agency’s secondary schools office, said that her staff wore Papuan batik on Fridays and for special occasions. “We also have been coordinating with the principals of both public and private schools in order to obligate their pupils to don batik Papua on certain days.”

Similarly, Yohanis Kasamol, the head of Mimika’s tourism office, said that more government officers were buying local-style batik. “One way we have introduced Papuan batik in Mimika is that we have asked employees who work at Mozes Kilangin Airport to don batik on certain days. Passengers who get off the plane will see the officers wearing Papuan batik immediately.”

Mimika’s former regent, Titus Potereyauw, echoed Yohanis’ statements. “Since 2001, we have required all civil servants to don Papuan batik in Mimika. They are free to choose the desired patterns and motifs.”

There’s no one approved pattern for the official batik. Civil servants are free to choose their favorite motifs, except on certain special days when they are asked to wear batik reflecting the regency’s Komoro indigenous people, the 79-year-old said.

One customer, Albert Tony, an employee of PT Freeport Indonesia who hails from Samarinda, East Kalimantan, said he frequently sought out the unique designs. “I often come to the store and purchase quite a lot of Papuan batik for souvenirs for my friends and my relatives.”

Papua-style batik can be found at stores located along Jl. Serui Mekar, Jl. Budi Utomo and Jl. A. Yani in Mimika.

3) As 2013 ends, the human rights situation continue unabated in Papua
Comment by Yan Christian Warinussy, Executive-Director of LP3BH

During the past fifteen years, from 1999 - 2013, the human rights situation in the Land of Papua has continued to be very bad. Why is this so?

This is because acts of violence perpetrated against the civilian population by the military and the police continue to increase ...... [line missing] according to information obtained by the LP3BH - Manokwari as one of the civil society organisations functioning in the Land of Papua and has continued to intensify along with the violence perpetrated by the security forces and the State against the civilian population.

All the activities perpetrated by the State apparatus are taken as part the militaristic approach which is used to resolve any problems and eventually result in violations of the principles human rights as stipulated in Law 26/2000 about Human Rights Courts and Law 39/1999 on Human Rights.

Such activities go back to the killing of Theys

Hiyo Eluay on 10 November 2001 by members of the security forces known as Kopassus. Then came the crime against humanity which occurred during the sweepings and clampdown in Wasior early in October 2001. None of these incident have been resolved by Komnas HAM, the National Human Rights Commission or the Attorney-General who is authorised to investigate such incidents in accordance with Law 26/2000.

During the Wasior incident, human rights were violated in violation of human rights such as arbitrary detention and torture, extra-judicial killings, enforced disappearances as well as rape that all of which were perpetrated against the civilian population in Wasior, Wondiway, Rasiei, Rakwa, Dotir and Yopanggar.

There have been more recent incidents such as the murder of Mako Tabuni, the Aimas Case and other incidents in various parts of the Land of Papua none of which have been resolved in accordance with the laws in force. Nor have those personally responsible been brought to justice. In our opinion, grave human rights have been occurring in the Land of Papua ever since 1963 and will continue to occur because Papua is treated as a region of conflict while the number of troops here continue to increase endlessly.

There is further evidence of this, following recent operations by the army and police around the island Mansiman by troops of the military command in Manokwari.

Moreover, the churches in Papua seem to be incapable of exerting pressure to end the military approach being operated by the security forces.

Human rights violations have been occurring in Papua for fifty years in violation of the laws in force, as mentioned above.

As the year ends, the LP3BH wishes to remind the government of Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono to treat this serious human rights situation as its priority, as his government comes to the end of its second term.

2) Need for more funds for MSG Regional Police Academy

SUVA, Fiji -- Plans to establish the Melanesian Spearhead Group (MSG) regional police academy in Fiji remain in limbo as the Defence Ministry calls for more funding to construct the proposed institution.

Yesterday the Indonesian Government injected $US500, 000 as the first funding for the construction of the academy.

Defence Minister Joketani Cokanasiga said more than $20m (US$10 million) was needed for the project, which is expected to be built at Nabukavesi, outside Lami Town.

The project had been scheduled for construction in 2011.

“The academy would have been established long time ago but funding is an issue because it's regional — we have to be mindful,” he said.

Cokanasiga said the issue now was how to progress, adding with the Indonesian Government injecting the first funds, more funds from donor agencies would enable construction.

The handover was made to Commodore Voreqe Bainimarama by Indonesian Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs, Lieutenant General Langgeng Sulistiyono.

“I think it is a timely donation because this has been going on since 2011 and one of the issues that we have is how we progress this. This is the first funding from our donor agents,” Cokanasiga said.

He said Fiji was contributing towards the establishment of the academy through an interim academy at Nasese and from the ministry's budget.

The academy will train police officers from Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Kanak and Socialist National Liberation Front (FLNKS), Vanuatu and the Solomon Islands.

Thursday, January 09, 2014

THE government will not interfere with West Papua's call to join the Melanesian Spearhead Group (MSG).

This has been confirmed by Defence Minister Joketani Cokanasiga who said he would leave the matter to the Indonesian Government to deal with.

"Our policy is never to interfere with other people's internal affairs," he said.

"I believe there is a delegation from MSG going up to see West Papua — we maintain our very strong stand that if any thing should happen, it should emanate from Indonesia rather than us going outside and getting them."

The Indonesian Government confirmed it will deal with the issue because it claims West Papua is part of its sovereignty.

Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Lieutenant General Langgeng Sulistiyono said they would tackle the call by West Papua to join the MSG.

"With regards to the issue of West Papua — it is part of our issue, so we have to tackle it by ourself because it is part of our sovereignty," he said.

3) Three Nepalese deported from Indonesia

Thu, January 9 2014 14:43 | 415 Views

Jayapura, Papua (ANTARA News) - The Immigration Office of the eastern Indonesian city of Jayapura in Papua province deported three Nepalese nationals on Thursday, stated spokesman Soenaryono.

"We have deported three immigrants from Nepal who allegedly wanted to seek asylum in Australia. They left Jayapura for Jakarta, on the Batik Air plane, at 8 a.m. this morning," noted Soenaryono on Thursday.

He explained that the three Nepalese nationals, identified as Prashain Prabhakar (19), Thapa Chhetri Rabindra (37) and Khadka Kama Kumar (30), were held on December 30, 2013 when they were about to have their visas extended at the Jayapura Immigration Office.

Soenaryono informed that they had told the immigration authorities that they wanted to make their way to Australia from Merauke on a motor boat, but had to get their visas extended in Jayapura before that.

"However, we have now deported them to Jakarta from where they will be flown to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and then to their country of origin, Nepal," he noted.

Meanwhile, the immigration authorities in Batam, Riau Islands Province, deported 121 foreign nationals on various charges, last year.

"Most of the deportees were from Malaysia, Singapore and Myanmar," Head of the Batam Immigration Office Yudi Kurniadi stated in Batam recently.

He added that 36 foreign nationals were deported after their stay permits had expired, and 40 were deported after being caught for illegal fishing in the Indonesian waters.

Four of the deportees were involved in smuggling activities, while 26 others had abused their stay permits, he noted.

Sixteen foreign nationals were deported after completing their respective jail terms for various criminal offenses, he remarked.

He noted that several foreign nationals had gained entry into Batam through the many illegal ports that are present.

Some of the foreign nationals used these illegal ports to smuggle drugs, he claimed.

"Some of the foreign nationals were directly deported to their countries, while others were sent to a detention facility in Tanjungpingan, prior to their deportation," he emphasized.

This delegation is the resolution of the MSG Summit in Noumea , which was decided in June last year after the West Papua National Coalition for Liberation ( WPNCL ) apply for membership in the MSG . MSG member countries were forced to postpone the discussion of the application WPNCL after Indonesia offers a visit to Jakarta and Papua for a closer look at the issues of human rights violations in Papua , allegedly committed by the Indonesian . The plan , this visit will be carried out between 11 to 15 January 2014. Representative kanaki People's Liberation Front ( FLNKS ) even reported to have flown to Jakarta last night ( 9/1 )

But beyond the expectations of many, the only delegation invited by the Government of Indonesia to visit Jakarta and Bali alone , without Papua . This triggered protests from Vanuatu , one of the countries members of the MSG lately very concerned with the issue of self-determination for the people of Papua . Deputy Prime Minister of Vanuatu who is also the Minister of Foreign Affairs , Edward Natapei , when contacted Jubi said Vanuatu has sent a letter of protest to the MSG Secretariat of the Indonesian government 's invitation .

" The invitation but does not include Papua Jakarta and Bali alone . We have asked the Chairman of the MSG ensure Jakarta agenda includes a visit to Papua , before Monday ( 13/1-red ) , " said Natapei when contacted Jubi , Friday ( 10/1 ) morning .

In pre MSG Summit meeting attended by foreign ministers of MSG in Lifou Island , Loyalty Islands New Caledonia , in June last year . Foreign Minister of Fiji , Ratu Inoke Kubuabola said MSG delegation to Indonesia is the Indonesian Government initiative .

" We all agreed that the mission would go to Jakarta at the invitation of the Government of Indonesia and then to West Papua . This year ( 2013 - ed ) , depending on the date agreed with the Indonesian government . " Kubuabola said at the time. Indonesian government 's invitation , said Kubuabola , presented by the Indonesian government on June 3 , during a meeting between Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama and Fiji Djoko Suyanto , Coordinating Minister of Indonesia.

The Indonesian government , through the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs , Vishnu Ward , MSG Summit plenary before June 21, says relations between Indonesia and MSG continue to be strengthened and improved . One way is to invite the Foreign Ministers of MSG countries to come to Indonesia .

3) MSG mission to Indonesia imminent

Updated at 4:28 pm on 9 January 2014

A Foreign Ministers' delegation of the Melanesia Spearhead Group is reportedly due to visit Indonesia within days to discuss and observe West Papua.

The delegation's visit stems from a resolution at last June's MSG leaders summit in Noumea to engage more closely with Jakarta over issues raised about extensive alleged human rights abuses in Indonesia's Papua region.

The visit by the MSG is to commence on Sunday, taking in legs in Jakarta and in Papua province, according to the West Papua National Coalition for Liberation.

The trip was originally planned for late last year.

The Coalition's formal bid to become a full member of the MSG had been deferred by member governments pending the outcome of the mission to Indonesia.

The MSG is split over the Papua issue, with Vanuatu pushing for the former Dutch colony's right to self-determination while Fiji acknowledging Indonesia's control of the area as legitimate.

In connection with this , which changes the core motivation MSG arrival of reception problems for Papua WPNCL application is accepted as a member of the MSG , become a matter of business and economic cooperation , Papua Student Alliance ( AMP ) Committee Yogyakarta states do not agree and do not accept this .

MSG AMP wants to meet political leaders of the nation of Papua , and not only met with Indonesian accomplice in Papua . AMP Indonesia and several foreign minister accused of playing MSG member countries of interest, where they do not want to bring up issues that actually occurred in Papua , to the point , the application WPNCL wants to be defeated .

2) Papuans Behind Bars: December 2013

At the end of December 2013, there were at least 70 political prisoners in Papuan jails. After a period of sustained demonstrations and 112 political arrests in November, this month saw fewer demonstrations and no political arrests.

As reported in our November update, on 1 December 2013, two Papua New Guinea nationals and one West Papuan were arrested in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea, during a ceremony raising the Papuan Morning Star flag, held to commemorate the date which West Papuans consider to be their national day. The three men have been released on bail. The arrests show the curbing of free expression extending beyond Indonesia’s borders, and a PNG civil society group has criticised Indonesia’s alleged interference.

While the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention declared in November 2011 that detaining people for raising the Morning Star flag is a violation of international law, there has been an increase in the number of detentions relating to the Morning Star flag in 2013.

Six detainees in the Aimas 1 May case were sentenced to 1.5 years’ imprisonment for conspiracy to commit treason under Articles 106 and 110 of the Indonesian Criminal Code. Isak Klaibin, who the court considered to be the leader of the gathering on 30 April, was sentenced to 3.5 years’ imprisonment under the same charges and an additional charge under the Emergency Law 12/1951. Yan Christian Warinussey, the Executive Director of LP3BH (Institute for Research, Investigation and Development of Legal Aid in Manokwari, Lembaga Penelitian, Pengkajian dan Pengembangan Bantuan Hukum), stated that the sentencing reflected poorly on the situation of human rights in Papua, particularly with regards to freedom of expression.

Despite attempts by the Provost and vice-Provost of Cenderawasih University (Universitas Cenderawasih, UNCEN) in November 2013 to suppress political activity on campus, students continued to protest against the detention of student leader Yason Ngelia, holding a further demonstration on 12 December.

West Papua attracted further international attention, with the completion of the ‘Pedalling for Papua’ campaign at Abepura prison, Jayapura, where human rights activist Jeremy Bally delivered global messages of support to the prisoners. There were concerns over distorted media coverage of his visit and Indonesian news outlets were criticised as misrepresentative.

3) One shot dead during trouble makers-joint forces shoot out in Papua

Fri, January 10 2014 19:36 | 338 Views

Jayapura, Papua (ANTARA News) - A member of the trouble maker group "Jhon Beanal" was shot dead during a shootout by the joint forces of Indonesian Military and Police at PT Freeports east embankment operational area, Papua.

Vice Head of Papua Police Brigadier General Paulus Waterpauw informed ANTARA News in Papua, on Friday, that the victim could be ascertained as a member of Jhon Beanal AKA Jhon Botak Group since the east embankment of PT Freeport area was known to be their hideout.

"The shooting took place on the night of Thursday, January 9, during the joint forces regular patrol in that area," he explained.

According to Waterpauw, the current situation post the shooting remained conducive and the deceased was being sought to be evacuated.

"Now, we are still waiting for the last of the process to identify the deceased," Waterpauw explained.

Besides, it was raining during the shootout, and that had caused the process of the evacuation even more difficult.

The joint forces found an M-16 gun on the victim and saved it as evidence.

During the ten minute shooting, the police estimated, the Jhon Beanal group had ten to twenty members and possessed around four guns, Waterpauw explained.

The current report stated that the operational work of PT Freeport is still on and the residents who lived around the location are all safe.

"The shooting location was far away from the PT Freeport and the residential area," Waterpauw pointed out. (Uu.A060/INE/KR-BSR/H-YH)

1) Whilst Indonesia bribes Fiji and interferes with MSG, Vanuatu fights back

JANUARY 11, 2014

We have both some very grim and very positive news to report concerning West Papua and the Melanesian Spearhead Group (MSG).

As predicted, Indonesia has once again bribed the leaders of Melanesia in a desperate effort to try to cover up their ongoing genocide and illegal occupation of West Papua and to try to stop West Papua joining the very influential regional body, the Melanesian Spearhead Group (MSG) which will be an essential and struggle changing moment when West Papua joins. They have also denied access for the leaders of the Melanesian countries to visit West Papua but have insisted that they go to Java and Bali alone.

In response the Government of Vanuatu (which strongly supports West Papua) has issued a strong protest letter to Indonesia and released a bold press statement confirming that they will refuse to cooperate with Indonesia if they continue to twist and pull the internal affairs of Melanesian nations over West Papua.

In the meanwhile, the leader of the West Papua National Committee (KNPB), Victor Yeimo has issued a statement from behind Indonesian prison bars, calling on MSG not to betray the people of West Papua stating that “if the Melanesian leaders are more supportive of the Indonesian colonial powers than the people of West Papua then they have betrayed the people of Melanesia.”

Background to the issue

West Papua joining MSG is one of Indonesia’s greatest fears and right now they are doing all that they can to try and stop any support for West Papua from the leaders of our brothers and sister Melanesian countries. A starting move of Indonesia’s was by managing to cheat its way into getting “Observer status” at MSG. This gives it even more influence with which to interfere with the internal politics of Melanesia.
Last year, an MSG summit was held in Kanaky to determine whether West Papua would join or not. Though throughout the year, there was widespread support for West Papua’s joining, Indonesia pulled the strings at the last moment by sending an enormous delegation to Kanaky, suspected bribery of the Prime Minister of Fiji and suddenly meeting with the Prime Minister of Papua New Guinea.

As a result, whilst all the other countries voted in favour of the motion, Papua New Guinea and Fiji did not, thus barring West Papua from joining MSG in 2013. It was agreed instead at Indonesia’s insistence that before a decision could be made, a delegation of every country had to visit Indonesia so that Indonesia could try and prove that the situation in West Papua was peaceful to avoid any sympathy from fellow Melanesian countries. Indonesia claimed that “This was not a Melanesian issue but an internal issue for Indonesia”.

It was finally agreed that a delegation from every country would visit Java at the same time and then visit West Papua at the same time to discuss with the Indonesian government and to see first-hand what the human rights situation in West Papua really was.

Indonesia breaks the promises and bribes the MSG leaders

Towards the end of 2013, Indonesia began inviting not a delegation from MSG to Indonesia as a whole as had been agreed but instead, extended private invitations to the leaders of the various Melanesian countries alone who would come to Indonesia to have dinner with the Indonesian president where he would try and persuade the leaders that such support for West Papua was not necessary.

Indonesia itself has in fact admitted that this is to try and strengthen ties with MSG over West Papua. Indonesian Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, Vishnu Ward announced recently “To strengthen relationships with MSG Indonesia, Indonesian Foreign Minister invited the MSG to come to Indonesia. To exchange experiences and provide an opportunity to see and better understand the development in Indonesia, including Papua and West Papua.”

This was by no means the end of such broken promises. Indonesia has today announced that it will not allow any delegates or leaders of the countries to visit West Papua as part of the official MSG agreement last year. The official MSG delegation to West Papua will also not in fact even be welcomed to meet with any West Papuan civil society groups. This is obviously a clear attempt to halt any Melanesian leader seeing first-hand what is really happening on the ground inside West Papua and to try to prevent the mass protests in support of West Papua joining MSG that would inevitably happen within West Papua whenever one of the MSG delegations arrived.
This further intervention by the state of Indonesia is in clear violation of the agreement.

The government of Vanuatu, which has been the most spoken of any world government in supporting West Papua was especially appalled by this violation and the Deputy Prime Minister, who is also the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Edward Natapei, announced that Vanuatu has sent an official letter of protest to the MSG Secretariat of the Indonesian government’s invitation.

World famous West Papuan political prisoner, Filep Karma, (who is in serving a 15 year jail sentence under Indonesian law simply for raising the West Papuan national flag), calls upon MSG to also visit the West Papuan political prisoners who are currently scattered in several prisons in Papua.
“I ask, in the MSG leaders later visit to Papua in order to visit the Papuan Political Prisoners,” said Filep Karma on Thursday (9/1).

Another famous West Papuan political prisoner, Victor Yeimo, who is the Chairman of the West Papua National Committee (KNPB) asked the Indonesian government to open widely without isolating the reality of the problem that happened in Papua. He said that MSG Leaders should be given the freedom to meet with anyone Papuan people to understand the problems facing Papua issue for integration with Indonesia. Victor said recently on behalf of his organisation “We welcome and look forward to welcoming MSG Leaders in Papua,”

Following the recent huge rise in support for West Papua in both the Melanesian Spearhead Group (MSG) and in the Melanesian public, the Indonesian government has given the Chairman of MSG 500,000 dollars. This is a very symbolic figure, Indonesia has paid Fiji about 1 dollar to try and forget the brutal murder of each of the 500,000 Melanesian West Papuans the Indonesian government has murdered during their 50 year illegal occupation of West Papua. That is the value of a Papuan life in the eyes of the Indonesian government. One dollar per person.

The Indonesian government steals about 1.82 million dollars a day from Melanesia through the Freeport gold mine alone.

Fiji government officially ignores West Papua after accepting the money

The current Chairman of MSG is the Prime Minister of Fiji, Frank Bainimarama, who is regarded by many people as a military dictator. He has had a much closer relationship with Indonesia than any other Melanesian head of state and he has been effectively bribed by Indonesia several times previously to keep out support for West Papua.

Bainimarama received the money on behalf of the Melanesian Spearhead Group from the Indonesian government’s Secretary of Coordinating Ministry for Political, Legal and Security Affairs Lt Gen Langgeng Sulistiyonho (who is also a general in the Indonesian military) in Suva, Fiji on Wednesday 8th January.
On the same day, Langgeng Sulistiyono announced that “With regards to the issue of West Papua — it is part of our issue, so we have to tackle it by ourself because it is part of our sovereignty,”
Bainimarama also admitted that the money given was a way to “further strengthen relations with Indonesia”.

If Indonesia is doing this because it cares about Melanesia, why has it waited until now to make a donation? And why does it chose Fiji to give it to as opposed to say Vanuatu?

Only a day later, the Fijian Defence Minister, Joketani Cokanasiga, after being silent on the issue for so long, suddenly announced that said “he would leave the matter of West Papua to the Indonesian Government to deal with.”

“Our policy is never to interfere with other people’s internal affairs,” he said.
“I believe there is a delegation from MSG going up to see West Papua — we maintain our very strong stand that if anything should happen, it should emanate from Indonesia rather than us going outside and getting them.”

To support West Papua, Government of Vanuatu refuses to cooperate with Indonesia

However, there is also very good and positive news to come from this week as well.

Unlike the Fijian government, which has accepted all of Indonesia’s terms over West Papua, including bribery and said that it will ignore the plight of the West Papuan people so that it maintains good relations with Indonesia, the government of the Republic of Vanuatu yesterday announced that they would not participate in the MSG Ministerial Fact Finding mission to West Papua which was scheduled to be held from 11-15th January 2014 and therefore would not willingly cooperate with the Indonesian government over this West Papua issue as they are so obviously pulling every string of Melanesian politics to try and stop support for West Papua.

Vanuatu announced yesterday in an official press statement “The Vanuatu Government believes that while the visit is carefully designed to “promote Economic ties and development cooperation” between Indonesia and the MSG countries, it should be structured to meet the purpose for which the MSG leaders had agreed to in Noumea during the Summit.”

They added “There are also concerns about Human rights abuses in the West Papua and while this visit is not to investigate allegations against human rights abuse, meeting with the people is absolutely necessary as it has the potential to bridge any information gap between the Governing authorities and those that are being governed.
The Vanuatu Prime Minister, Hon Moana Carcasses Kalosil had written an urgent letter to the Chairperson of the MSG, Mr. Victor Tutugoro raising the concerns of his Government that the important mission to West Papua must allow the inclusion of meetings with the indigenous people of West Papua, in particular the Chiefs and the churches in order to hear what the people have to say about the authenticity of WPNCL and other concerns which the West Papuans may have. These are concerns of the leaders at the summit. Getting views from the Indonesian authorities alone may not be truly reflective of the concerns which the leaders will want to know before they could make a final determination on the membership of West Papua into the MSG.
The Vanuatu Government had insisted during the MSG Senior Officials Meeting and the Foreign Ministers’ meeting that any program of visit to West Papua must include strong participation of the civil society who are the people that are most directly affected. “

“It is not an easy decision for the Government to make at this stage, but it has to be taken in order to uphold the integrity of the decision of the MSG leaders. What is decided by the MSG leaders must be respected and all MSG member countries are fully obliged to ensure that the decision by their leaders is not subordinated by any element. These are Sovereign decisions of Sovereign States of Melanesia.”
This is a truly brave and fully respected statement which we welcome 100%. The government of Fiji might have accepted blood money to backstab West Papua, but the government of Vanuatu shows that they are true children of Melanesia, putting their fellow Melanesian before their money.

Free West Papua Campaign statement on developments

The statements of the Government of Vanuatu over West Papua have continued to be overwhelmingly positive and right for the people of West Papua.

We fully support such statements and are entirely grateful to the government for taking such a bold stand for their Melanesian brothers and sisters in West Papua.

In such a way, Vanuatu has proved itself as a true son of Melanesia.

Indonesia’s sinister involvement in the Melanesian Spearhead Group in such manners as this is a clear attempt by the Indonesian government to interfere and sabotage our Melanesian nations to stop any support for their fellow Melanesian people of West Papua including by bribing our own Melanesian leaders.

It is Indonesia, which has no right whatsoever to interfere with our internal Melanesian affairs such as with our people of West Papua.
It is Melanesia, which has to tackle this issue as it is part of Melanesian sovereignty, not Indonesia.

Since when did Indonesia have any right to bribe our leaders and tell us which fellow Melanesian wantoks we do have or do not have the right to support?

This is a true disgrace and the government of Indonesia but also more shockingly to the government of Fiji, especially Mr Bainimarama and Mr Cokanasiga must be truly ashamed of themselves that they are selling their own Melanesian people down the river for little more than blood money.

We fully condemn this outrageous and blatantly illegal string pulling by the Indonesian government in trying to stop the truth coming out about the genocide and illegal occupation they are still committing inside West Papua every day.

But the Melanesian people rising up to support their family in West Papua. The Indonesian government cannot stop them. Not with 500,000 dollars. Not with all the money in the world. This is about more than money. It is about truth, justice and freedom.

History will record those who thought 500,000 dollars would buy silence over the genocide of 500,000 West Papuans.

With our Melanesian brothers and sisters, we will succeed

We know that you, the true brothers and sisters of Melanesia just like Vanuatu and as with all our friends around the world, will always stand up for your fellow people in West Papua, and that it is with your support, that West Papua will finally join the Melanesian Spearhead Group and further to the Pacific Islands Forum and that ultimately, West Papua will join the world as a member of the United Nations and at last as another free brother of Melanesia.

Help to pave the way for full freedom for West Papua and so all of Melanesia.

Thank you very much for all your support

MELANESIA MUST RISE UP!

MSG Do Hianati West Papua - Melanesian

January 11 , 2014 By : central Category : Press Release

Press Release KNPB

We are pleased that the MSG Summit in Noumea recognize the right of self- determination for West Papua membership application even while deferring West Papua at MSG where MSG Foreign Ministers first visit and monitor the situation of West Papua . West Papuan People took to the streets of Noumea resolution welcomed the results , even on peaceful demonstrations that the people arrested , intimidated and killed by authorities kolonisl Indonesian atrocities .

For six months , the people of West Papua have been monitoring the attitude and commitment of the member countries of the results of the resolution MSG Noumea in June 2013 ago . We looked at the attitude of the Government of Fiji , the Solomon Island and Papua New Guinea which receive " guerrilla diplomacy money " from Indonesia, which seeks to block the entrance to West Papua Melanesian brotherhood at MSG .

Indonesia has invited the delegates of MSG on the agenda "Promoting Economic Cooperation and Development Ties " , on December 11 until January 15 . On May 13 , the delegation will meet with representatives of Indonesia in Papua, the DPRP Governor dam . Without meeting the people of West Papua , the delegation will go to Jakarta to sign a " Joint Statement " that endorsed the Melanesian countries did not support the right of self-determination in the MSG Summit diresolusikan .

We looked at the Indonesian colonial rulers have very much influence our leaders of the Melanesian PNG , Fiji and Solomon Island . Indonesia does not honor the decision at MSG that the visit was to monitor the human rights situation in West Papua . And if the leaders of the Melanesian countries are more supportive of the colonial authorities in West Papua Indonesia , it is a betrayal of the nation of Papua Melanesian clumps , and we assume that MSG has successfully used the issue of West Papua as a means of buying and selling of economic interests with the colonial authorities of Indonesia.

Indonesian colonial authorities were closing the space for the people of West Papua to welcome delegates MSG . They clog the voices of real people . Indonesia to " bribe culture " will put people and the governor of Papua in Indonesia DPRP for promotion to MSG . Indonesia is a country that is good at manipulating the truth .

However , we believe that our brothers and sisters in Fiji , PNG , Solomon Island , Vanuatu and Kanaky will feel sorry and will not stand for his brother in West Papua Melanesia . People will clump Melanesian West Papua solidarity for the struggle for self-determination .

West Papua Melanesia and Indonesia is Malay . MSG is made to Melanesia . Become a member of West Papua to MSG is a natural right . We therefore urge the Melanesian leaders to stop political economic cooperation with Inonesia before the right of self-determination for West Papua met.

Jayapura , January 11, 2014

The Jakarta Post | The Archipelago | Sat, January 11 2014, 11:35 AM

A member of an armed group, which is believed to have threatened security forces between miles 45 and 50 at PT Freeport Indonesia’s mining area on Thursday, was shot and killed by a joint team of Indonesian Military (TNI) and police personnel, who also seized an M-16 assault rifle and its magazine.

“The deceased is believed to have been a member of an armed group that has been operating between the Mile 41 and Mile 50 area of
Freeport’s mining zone in Timika,” said Papua Police deputy chief Brig. Gen. Paulus Waterpauw in Jayapura on Friday.

The armed group, added Paulus, was the John Botak gang, which has at least 10 members and is armed with around four firearms.

Papua Police chief spokesman Comr. Pudjo Sulistyo said the firefight ensued when security personnel, who were conducting a patrol early on Thursday around the Kali Kopi dike, encountered the armed group who were fleeing into the forest.

3) Freeport, Newmont Exempted as Mineral Ban Comes Into Effect

Indonesia, one of the world’s biggest resource exporters, halted all mineral ore exports on Sunday in a bid to promote domestic processing, but the country’s president passed a last-minute regulation to ease the ban’s impact on major miners.

In one of his biggest economic policy decisions since taking office nearly 10 years ago, President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono approved the ban, but allowed US mining giants Freeport McMoRan Copper & Gold and Newmont Mining Corp to continue to ship billions of dollars worth of copper overseas.

The Southeast Asian nation is the world’s biggest exporter of nickel ore, refined tin and thermal coal and home to the fifth largest copper mine and top gold mine.

The long-expected ban aims to boost Indonesia’s long-term return from its mineral wealth by forcing miners to process their ores domestically. But officials fear a short-term cut in foreign revenue could widen the current account deficit, which has undermined investor confidence and battered the rupiah.

“Starting at midnight on Jan. 12, 2014, raw ore definitely cannot be exported,” Energy and Mines Minister Jero Wacik told reporters after a meeting with the president and cabinet.

However, Yudhoyono’s last-minute regulation will allow 66 companies, which include Freeport and Newmont, to continue to export processed mineral as they have provided assurances to the government that they will soon build the necessary smelters.

“As long as they can fulfill the requirements, Freeport and tens of national miners are still allowed to export,” Industry Minister M.S. Hidayat told Reuters.

Details of the regulations were to be released later.

Most of the companies expected to feel the impact of the ban are small domestic miners, numbering in the hundreds, that cannot afford to invest the hundreds of millions of dollars needed to build a smelter.

Mineral shipments totalled $10.4 billion in 2012, or around 5 percent of Indonesia’s total exports, according to the World Bank.

Halting shipments

Shortly before the ban took effect, Freeport halted copper exports and would not resume them until there was clarity on which minerals can be shipped, a union official told Reuters.

“There will be no concentrate exports from Freeport Indonesia in Papua as long as there is no government policy providing certainty on concentrate exports,” said union official Virgo Solossa, adding that the firm has not made a shipment from its port since Dec. 15.

It was not immediately clear if the government announcement late Saturday would be enough for Freeport to resume exports immediately. A company spokeswoman said Freeport continued to provide copper to its local smelter for domestic use.

Freeport, the country’s dominant copper produce with 73 percent market share, last month warned that an unrevised export ban would cut output at its Grasberg mine by 60 percent and lead to layoffs of half of its 15,000 Indonesian employees.

Under the proposed regulation being reviewed by the president in the run-up to the deadline, Freeport, Newmont Mining Corp and other miners would be allowed to export copper, manganese, lead, zinc and iron ore concentrate until 2017. But nickel ore and bauxite exports worth more than $2 billion annually would still be banned, while coal and tin shipments would not be affected.

However, it was not clear whether the final regulation had been revised.

“In our discussion (about the ban), our considerations were first about the workforce, which shouldn’t face mass layoffs,” Energy and Mines Minister Wacik said.

“Second was about the local economy, so it doesn’t face any burden from the new regulations. Then, domestic companies should be allowed to continue operating.”

More than 100 mining companies have been forced to reduce or shutdown operations due to the uncertainty surrounding the mineral export ban.

Along with Freeport, Indonesian miner Perusahaan Perseroan Aneka Tambang (Antam) also stopped nickel ore exports a few days ago, the firm’s corporate secretary Tri Hartono said.

Election issue

A major economic impact could make the ban a hot political issue in this year’s legislative and presidential elections, especially if it sparks a wave of layoffs in the world’s fourth most populous country.

Thousands of mine workers have already been laid off ahead of the ban, sparking protests in Jakarta.

“We call on all mining workers to prepare to go on the streets and swarm the presidential palace if the government goes ahead with the implementation of the ban,” said Juan Forti Silalahi of the National Mine Workers Union in a statement earlier on Saturday.

Police have been stationed at ports and around mines to secure those places in case of public disturbances, said national police spokesman, Boy Rafli Amar.
