Freitag, 12. August 2011 |
Das mit Unterstützung von FdN/fPcN umgesetzte Online-Buch "Die sterbenden Stämme von West Papua" ist Ideal für den Unterricht mit Schülern, da dieses Thema in den hiesigen Medien verschwiegen wird und der Aspekt der kulturellen Vielfalt auf unserem Planeten untrennbar mit dem der biologischen Vielfalt verknüpft ist. Das Online-Buch ist reichhaltig illustriert sowie leicht verständlich geschrieben. Derzeit ist es ins englische, koreanische und deutsche übersetzt. Die Publikation gibt umfangreiche Einblicke in die sterbenden Kulturen der Melanesier in West Papua durch politische und wirtschaftliche Interessen Indonesiens. Es beleuchtet sowohl die historischen Gegebenheiten als auch die aktuelle Situation in West Papua.

Summary: Thousands of Papuans peacefully took to the streets August 2 to support calls for a referendum on West Papua's political future. The demonstrations proceeded despite the presence of armed security forces intended to block the demonstrations and the presence of Jakarta-backed militia provocateurs. Violence erupted near Jayapura and in Puncak District on the eve of the demonstrations. Over 50 international organizations publicly called for the Indonesian government to respond positively to appeals by Papuan NGOs and churches for justice, an end to human rights violations in West Papua, and protection of human rights advocates and journalists. WPAT called on Secretary Clinton to raise with Indonesian officials the ongoing military sweep operations in Puncak Jaya, West Papua. These operations have had devastating affects on innocent Papuan civilians. Secretary Clinton called for dialogue to settle disputes over West Papua. Her repetition of US Government support for "special autonomy" made clear that the Obama administration is deaf to the voice of Papuans who have rejected "special autonomy" repeatedly.

West-Papua Bericht Mai 2011 |
|
Geschrieben von FdN/ETAN
|
|
Donnerstag, 23. Juni 2011 |
Tausende Papua trafen sich am 2. Mai zur ersten von mehreren friedlichen Kundgebungen, um ihrer Forderung nach einem Volksentscheid über die politische Zukunft West-Papuas Ausdruck zu verleihen. Außerdem verlangten sie, dass das Autonomiegesetzt abgeschafft und international interveniert wird, um den Jahrzehnte lang andauernden Menschenrechtsverletzungen und der Ungerechtigkeit durch die indonesische Regierung ein Ende zu bereiten. Das Datum fällt mit der gewaltsamen indonesischen Annektierung West-Papuas vor vierzig Jahren zusammen. In vielen Städten West-Papuas befinden sich Sicherheitskräfte im Einsatz, und immer wieder gibt es Berichte über Festnahmen. Der jährliche Bericht des amerikanischen Außenministeriums zu Menschenrechten in Indonesien beschreibt genau und detailliert das ungeheuere Ausmaß der Menschenrechtsverstöße in West-Papua und klagt hauptsächlich die indonesischen Sicherheitskräfte an. Der Bericht hebt auch hervor, dass die Schuldigen selten für ihre Verbrechen zur Rechenschaft gezogen werden. Wie schon in der Vergangenheit wird es versäumt, in dem Bericht den Verstoß gegen die kulturellen, wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Rechte zu dokumentieren.

Geschrieben von FdN

|
Donnerstag, 5. Mai 2011 |
Today, May 1, 2011, We the people of West Papua mediated by the West Papua National Committee (KNPB) give our statement that:
1. We the Indigenous People of West Papua have never and will never
accept the Unitary Republic of Indonesia (NKRI) to occupy our
territory,
West Papua.
2. The process of incorporating our territory of West Papua under the
rule of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI); starting from 1963 until
1969
with the cooperation of Indonesia, the United States, the
Netherlands and the United Nations was engineered, constructed
and
managed by violations of the Standards and Principles of
International Law.
Because we, as the owners of West Papua, were
never involved in the
meetings and international agreements which discussed the political
status of our region of West Papua.

West Papua Report April 2011 |

Montag, 11. April 2011 |
Summary: Indonesia’s Vice President Boediono has begun implementation of
a Presidential decree calling for the establishment of an
inter-governmental agency to examine problems in West Papua. The
initiative falls far short of widespread Papuan calls for a
senior-level, internationally mediated dialogue between Indonesian
officials and Papuans. A senior Papuan civil society leader has spoken
out against this continued failure of Jakarta to engage in serious
dialogue. Papuan church leaders have charged the Indonesian government
with "genocide" in West Papua. The Melanesian Spearhead Group again
failed to invite representatives from West Papua to its annual summit,
instead inviting the Indonesian government to send observers. Indonesian
officials violated the labor rights of Papuans by jailing nurses who
called a peaceful, legal strike. A leading Papuan NGO chief has called
for elimination of provisions in the Indonesian criminal code that
violate Indonesia's obligations under international conventions to which
it is party.

Summary: Newly obtained video footage reveals Indonesian security
forces, including U.S. and Australian-backed Detachment 88 personnel,
brutality in operations in West Papua's Central Highlands. Indonesian
NGOs and prominent Papuans have faulted President Yudhoyono's newly
announced approach to dialogue with Papuans with criticism of Jakarta's
failure to end human rights violations and impunity by security forces
as a basis for dialogue. Papuans criticized Jakarta's selection of a
limited range of Papuans as dialogue partners and have urged a role for
international mediators. A prominent West African leader has announced support for West
Papua's self-determination. The chair of the Papuan Peoples Council
(DAP) denounced the Indonesian government's policy of transmigration.
The Asian Legal Resource Center has appealed to the UN Human Rights
Council to address continued security force abuse of human rights in
West Papua. A Papuan political prisoner who is gong blind as a result of
an attack by a prison warder needs urgent care. A report from within
West Papua details land grabs by the Indonesian military and
"developers" which have targeted Papuans in the Sorong area. Hamish
McDonald considers Papuans' struggle for self-determination in the light
of recent similar successful examples within the international
community.
