West Papua requests direct intervention by a United Nations-led security force
9 August 2000
forwarded
by ETAN
West Papuans urgently request international institutes, especially the United Nations
to protect West Papuans in West Papuan territory, so that another human disaster
in the Indonesian Republic can be contained. West Papuans hope that the international
community will not wait until West Papua is destroyed by the Indonesian government (that
is still dominated by its own military) before it addresses the rapidly deteriorating
situation.
West Papuan consider that direct intervention is the duty of the United Nations which
must protect indigenous West Papuans. The problem is not an 'internal' political
problem; but rather one that has to be addressed by the international community.
Thank you for your attention. Please help avoid our disaster.
Yours sincerely
Jacob Rumbiak,
For the people of West Papua
