Emas terbesar dan tembaga di dunia berdiri di antara Papua Barat dan harapannya untuk kemerdekaan. Julian Evansreports
New Guinea yang merupakan pulau terbesar ketiga di dunia, namun kita tahu sedikit tentang hal itu. Setengah bagian timur, Papua Nugini, dilihat sebagai masalah australia anak, mandiri tapi tidak mandiri. Setengah bagian barat, Papua Barat, kita tahu bahkan kurang.
Blipped negara ke barat berita-peta pada tahun 1996, ketika empat Inggris lulusan ilmu disandera oleh "Organisasi Papua" gerilyawan, tapi surat kabar diberhentikan orang Papua sebagai "Zaman Batu teroris". Dan ketika, pada tanggal 4 Juni tahun ini, Kedua Kongres Rakyat Papua dengan suara bulat menyatakan kemerdekaan Papua Barat dari Indonesia, hampir tak ada gumaman di pers Inggris.
Jakarta bereaksi lebih tegas, mengutuk kongres itu sebagai "tidak sah", peringatan Papua bahwa kemerdekaan adalah "bukan pilihan" dan bahwa pasukan keamanan akan bertindak untuk menjaga ketertiban. Amerika Serikat dan Jepang, diikuti oleh Uni Eropa, yang didukung Presiden Indonesia, Abdurrahman Wahid; Australia mengeluarkan pernyataan yang mengakui integritas teritorial Indonesia. The Indonesia kehadiran tentara dan polisi di Papua Barat telah diperkuat dari 8.000 menjadi 12.000, dan Jakarta telah memperingatkan lebih untuk datang.
Ada laporan di Asian pers bahwa, seperti yang terjadi di Timor Timur, milisi pro-Indonesia telah muncul. Belajar dari Timor Timur, Papua telah menyusun dan milisi mereka sendiri, di jalanan, di mana terdapat gangguan biasa, muncul sisi berimbang.
Bagi Indonesia, proklamasi kemerdekaan lain begitu cepat setelah kehilangan Timor Timur akan sulit untuk menelan. Namun kepedulian terbesar sejauh ini adalah Papua Barat sumber daya alam yang luar biasa.
Tersembunyi pada 4.000 meter di biru-hitam kisaran interiornya, Papua Barat memiliki cadangan terbesar emas di planet ini. Dalam laporan tahunan 1998 dari perusahaan pertambangan Inggris Rio Tinto plc, saham emas di New Guinea diberikan sebagai lebih dari 19 juta ons. Rio Tinto memiliki 12,5 persen saham di Grasberg Papua, ditambah lagi 40 persen saham dalam ekspansi. Tambang ini dimiliki oleh Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold, yang berbasis di New Orleans, yang cadangan emas di Grasberg berdiri di 85 juta ons. Emas Grasberg is worth $ 21.5bn. Tambang juga merupakan sumber terbesar ketiga tembaga, dengan cadangan sebesar 32 juta ton.
Papua Barat adalah sebesar Spanyol, tetapi sebagian besar itu begitu padat dengan hutan dan rawa bahwa mereka tidak pernah dipetakan. Hanya lebih dari satu juta orang Papua (sisanya transmigran) milik ratusan suku klan, banyak yang tinggal jauh di hutan, tanpa ikatan etnis atau agama mereka penguasa muslim. Di dataran tinggi, orang-orang berburu kasuari dan kanguru pohon dengan busur dan anak panah, sementara para wanita tenaga kerja di kebun, memasak dan perawat: itu tidak jarang menemukan ibu menyusui dengan seorang anak di salah satu payudara dan di sisi lain anak babi . Untuk melihat hal-hal ini adalah untuk melihat awal kita kemanusiaan.
Padang gurun ini Freeport-McMoRan datang pada tahun 1967, dengan restu dari pemerintah Indonesia. Tidak ada tambang di bumi bergerak sebanyak batu setiap hari sebagai Grasberg. Ketika saya mengunjungi Papua Barat pada tahun 1986, perusahaan memproduksi 16.000 ton bijih per hari dari tambang di dekatnya. Dua tahun kemudian, Grasberg diungkapkan plug yang besar dari tembaga-bijih emas, yang telah berdiri di batu selama tiga juta tahun sebagai gletser khatulistiwa maju dan mundur di sekitarnya. Sekarang produksi adalah antara 200.000 dan 300.000 ton bijih per hari.
Freeport kontrak pertama ditandatangani dengan Indonesia pada bulan April 1967. Papua Barat telah datang di bawah pemerintahan Indonesia sementara empat tahun sebelumnya. Belanda tidak ingin menyerahkannya dengan sisa kerajaan Hindia Timur mereka, tapi Presiden Soekarno mulai memamerkan persahabatan baru dengan Uni Soviet, dan Amerika Serikat mengambil ketakutan. Persetujuan New York tahun 1962, ditengahi oleh Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa, tetapi koreografer oleh Washington, membayar layanan bibir ke Bahasa Belanda desakan terhadap penentuan nasib sendiri. Berdasarkan perjanjian tersebut, Indonesia diizinkan enam tahun kekuasaan sementara sebelum itu untuk berkonsultasi di Papua apakah atau tidak mereka ingin dicaplok. Seperti di Timor Timur, pasukan Indonesia diberikan tanggung jawab untuk keamanan.
Yang konsultasi, yang dikenal sebagai "Act of Free Choice", diadakan pada 2 Agustus 1969. Papua yang 1.025 anggota dewan yang berkumpul di markas besar tentara di ibukota, Jayapura, diberitahu oleh utusan Presiden Suharto bahwa siapa pun yang memilih melawan Indonesia akan dicabut lidahnya atau akan ditembak di tempat. Pemungutan suara untuk integrasi bulat. Provinsi Irian Jaya telah dibuat, dan dunia disuguhi sebuah absurditas geopolitik: anti-kolonialisme dan neokolonialisme yang digunakan secara bergantian dalam kepentingan Amerika obsesi komunisme.
Antara tahun 1963 dan 1969, ada banyak operasi untuk memecahkan Bahasa Indonesia Papua protes, termasuk semak berdarah perang oleh OPM - Organisasi Papua Merdeka ( "Papua Merdeka") - perlawanan pejuang. Dalam 37 tahun sejak pasukan Indonesia tiba, setidaknya 45.000 diyakini telah tewas, kebanyakan di desa-desa dibom dan dibakar dan di depopulasi sistematis, pemerkosaan dan pembunuhan di luar hukum dari populasi. Pada tahun 1967 saja, 3.500 orang Papua dibunuh. Laporan kekejaman oleh tentara Indonesia telah menjadi begitu gigih itu, pada tanggal 5 April 1967 di House of Lords, Tuhan Ogmore menyerukan penyelidikan PBB. Itu juga merayakan hari bahwa Freeport penandatanganan kontrak.
Hubungan antara dua peristiwa ini lebih dari kebetulan. Perusahaan pertambangan ada menumpuk pada nilai. Tambang Grasberg pembangunan - tidak melupakan kontribusi Rio Tinto - begitu erat karier mirror Indonesia di Papua Barat itu patut dipertimbangkan dua secara paralel. Ada pertanyaan, misalnya, dari legalitas kontrak Freeport tahun 1967, sebuah kontrak Indonesia mungkin tidak memiliki hak legal untuk hibah. Terdapat juga ayat-ayat itu, antara 1991 dan 1997, perusahaan menyediakan jaminan pinjaman $ 673m untuk tujuan membeli saham Freeport selama tiga Indonesia memiliki hubungan dekat dengan Presiden Suharto atau para menteri (salah satu pengusaha yang terlibat, Muhamad "Bob" Hasan, ajudan Soeharto yang memperkenalkan CEO Freeport Jim-Bob Moffett ke lingkaran keluarga presiden, ditangkap tahun ini sehubungan dengan kasus penipuan).
Pada bulan Juli 1999, saya terbang dari Darwin melintasi Laut Arafura ke Timika, timah yang mengepak-dan-beton kekacauan yang adalah titik pendekatan terdekat tambang; dari sebuah desa yang terdiri 200 orang 25 tahun yang lalu, sekarang memiliki populasi mendekati 80.000 .
Aku melakukan perjalanan pertama ke Aikwa sungai, semen leher berwarna air beberapa kilometer lebar yang menerima ribuan ton tailing tambang (batu bubuk kiri dari proses penggilingan) per hari. Aku berdiri di tanggul dengan manajer lingkungan Freeport, mengamati pemandangan terpencil di bawah langit menggelegar. Akhirnya, diperkirakan, 220 kilometer persegi dataran rendah Papua akan ditenggelamkan oleh tailing. Aku menunjuk ke cakrawala di jauh bank, terluka oleh pohon mati kilometer. Manajer berkata dengan riang: "Oh, mereka baru saja memiliki sistem akar mereka dicekik oleh tailing. Tak sedap dipandang, bukan? Tapi kami akan memotong mereka."
Pemandangan hilir tidak dapat mempersiapkan Anda untuk tambang. Pertama, ada jalan akses yang spektakuler. Tidak ada kaki bukit: puncak biru rentang Jayawijaya meledak secara vertikal ke atas melalui titik beku kabut sutra, jadi insinyur hanya Freeport mencukur puncak-puncak dari garis tepi pisau-pegunungan sampai permukaannya cukup lebar untuk dua 40-ton truk untuk berlalu. Lebih tinggi, saluran pipa tambang tersebut berjalan telanjang di pinggir jalan, membawa pergi berkonsentrasi bijih besi tanker yang sedang menunggu di pantai. Pada tahun 1977, sebagai pembalasan expropriations tanah dan hanya bersenjatakan pisau gergaji besi, OPM pejuang dan penduduk desa memotong pipa ini. Tentara membalas dengan Operasi Tumpas ( "Operasi Annihilation"), pengeboman, meroket dan pemberondongan desa dengan US-disediakan OV-10 Bronco pesawat tempur.
Di Mile 68, ada Tembagapura, tambang tampak membosankan kotapraja; di Mile 74, sebuah trem kabel transport Anda kilometer terakhir dan satu setengah melalui awan ke puncak Grasberg. Iris seperti telur rebus, kerucut terbalik besar di tengahnya adalah pendalaman dari tahun ke tahun sebagai bijih besi yang terkutuk dan terbawa ke permukaan dalam yang tidak pernah berakhir kafilah dari 200-ton truk.
Untuk suku Amungme dataran tinggi, di tambang yang tanahnya berdiri, hasilnya telah menjadi bencana rohani. Bumi mereka berjalan pada nenek moyang mereka adalah ibu, gunung kepalanya. Setiap kali seseorang meninggal, mereka dulu dibawa ke puncak Grasberg. Tambang adalah mencongkel keluar otak ibu mereka di depan mata mereka.
Tambang dan infrastruktur adalah karya teknik yang tak diragukan, namun orang Papua 'kebencian datang di bawah beberapa judul: perusahaan pemindahan paksa di dataran tinggi di dataran rendah berawa; rumor berlebih hubungan dekat dengan militer Indonesia; dengan catatan lingkungan dan dugaan tanggung jawab untuk pelanggaran hak asasi manusia; dan uang. Mana uang? Papua Barat harus menjadi provinsi paling bankable di republik, namun tetap ekonomis mundur, kekayaannya tersedot ke Freeport pemegang saham dan ke Jakarta.
Namun mungkin pertanyaan utama bahkan bukan tentang uang. Sebagai kepala kantor keuskupan Katolik, Bruder Theo van den Broek, dikatakan: "Ini adalah: tanah saya. Aku. Di mana aku dalam seluruh cerita ini?"
Mungkin karena bau Freeport perubahan politik, pada tahun lalu, telah bergerak cepat batu. Sebulan yang lalu, sebuah slide batu limbah ke Danau Wanagon dikuburkan empat karyawan kontraktor dan melukai 18 lainnya. Bruder Theo percaya bahwa kecepatan ekstraksi besar yang menyebabkan masalah-masalah lingkungan. Meskipun perusahaan telah menyatakan tagihan bersih kesehatan dari audit lingkungan hidup yang independen, walikota wilayah Timika baru-baru ini memerintahkan masyarakat setempat untuk berhenti makan Tambelo - bekicot air yang merupakan pokok dari makanan dataran rendah - karena dicurigai kadar tembaga tinggi. Pada konsentrasi kurang dari dua bagian per juta (ppm), tembaga dapat menyebabkan kerusakan usus dan lainnya. Aikwa's tembaga yang tingkat sekitar 10ppm; logam lainnya yang berkaitan dengan bijih emas-bantalan termasuk merkuri, arsenik, barium, kadmium dan timah. CEO bersemangat Freeport membubarkan dampak lingkungan dari tambang sebagai "setara dengan saya kencing di Laut Arafura".
Tetapi sumber utama kemarahan tetap perusahaan hubungan dengan militer Indonesia. Freeport tidak dapat memisahkan diri dari tentara: tentara adalah karena Freeport ada di sana. Reguler Papua protes terhadap tambang secara rutin dipenuhi oleh tentara pembalasan. Sebuah laporan Gereja Katolik mengikuti serangkaian serangan militer di 1994-95, bagian dari "operasi pembersihan" terhadap OPM, tercantum pembunuhan, penyiksaan, penahanan dan penghilangan orang Papua. Kasus yang paling terkenal adalah tentang lima orang dari keluarga Kwalik. Ditangkap dan disiksa, mereka kemudian menghilang dan masih hilang. Beberapa bulan kemudian, Kwalik lain, seorang mantan guru bernama Kelly, diculik dan disandera kelompok riset Inggris ilmuwan.
Sehari sebelum aku pergi Timika, saya bertemu dengan Kelly Kwalik ibu, Ibu Josefa, seorang tokoh kuno terikat di kain terang, seperti dipoles dan dibungkus dengan hati-hati antik. Dia telah menemukan dirinya dalam penjara pada tahun 1995 "karena mereka pikir aku memberi perintah. Aku berada di dalam penjara selama satu bulan dan tiga hari. Ini adalah toilet dengan air sampai ke lutut." The "toilet" Josefa disebutkan adalah wadah pengangkutan baja beku. Dia dan sembilan orang lain yang harus berdiri di kotoran mereka sendiri selama satu bulan. Dia menjadi buta mata kirinya sebagai hasilnya.
Bruder Theo berpendapat bahwa ada antara 2.000 dan 4.000 tentara dan pasukan khusus pasukan di sekitar Timika, lebih banyak di desa-desa sekitar tambang. "Mereka meminta mobil dan fasilitas, dan Freeport setuju. Salah satu eksekutif senior berkata kepadaku:" Kami tidak menyukainya, tapi kami merasa aman. "" Selama kunjungan saya, saya diperkenalkan kepada sejumlah pejabat Freeport, termasuk seorang Amerika bernama Tom Green, yang bertanggung jawab atas "kantor penghubung masyarakat". Kemudian saya menemukan bahwa, sebelum bergabung dengan Freeport, ia pernah menjadi atase militer di kedutaan AS di Jakarta.
Kembali di London, saya menerima beberapa surat dari pengacara Amerika yang mewakili orang-orang suku Amungme. Lengkap tetapi mengungkapkan, mereka mengandung bukti bahwa Freeport telah dianggarkan untuk melengkapi militer untuk memungkinkannya melaksanakan peran kekerasan. Pada tahun tersebut - mungkin pada paruh kedua tahun 1990-an - perusahaan keuangan budgetingto bangunan markas militer, rumah jaga, barak, lapangan parade, amunisi-penyimpanan, air, listrik dan bahan bakar instalasi, bola voli dan tenis, tiang-tiang bendera dan tulisan isyarat. Dalam daftar persyaratan untuk proyek Freeport arsitek, draughtsmen dan insinyur, penyediaan telah dibuat selama dua tentara penasihat. Jumlah yang besar, mengingat bahwa surat-surat tidak lengkap: untuk tentara $ 5.160.770, untuk polisi $ 4.060.000.
Pada akhir bulan lalu, ketua Kongres Rakyat Papua, Theys Eluay, dan wakilnya, Tom Beanal, yang akan bertemu Presiden Wahid di Jakarta untuk menyampaikan proklamasi kemerdekaan kongres. Pertemuan itu dibatalkan, dan Eluay dan Beanal mungkin segera menghadapi tuduhan pengkhianatan. Tidak ada pihak yang memiliki ruang untuk manuver. Jika nasib Papua Barat masih merupakan masalah dalam negeri, Presiden Wahid kemungkinan akan tunduk kepada para jendral, dan nasionalisme Papua akan terkandung oleh penindasan militer. Tapi ada masalah, juga, dalam mengambil isu Papua Barat menentukan nasib sendiri kembali ke Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa.
Karena setiap diplomat PBB tahu, Indonesia telah memiliki pelajaran baru-baru ini dalam konsep keadilan internasional - di Timor Timur - dan tidak akan mentolerir lain. Papua Barat bahkan lebih penting ke Jakarta, dan Papua nasionalisme lebih berpotensi tidak stabil, di dalam dan di luar Indonesia. Grasberg, 4.000 meter di selatan-barat dataran tinggi, adalah tempat berpijak ekonomi. Freeport adalah salah satu terbesar di Indonesia pajak dan royalti sumber-sumber dan memiliki lisensi untuk calon pelanggan lain-hektar 2,6 juta daerah, sejauh perbatasan Papua Nugini. Kemungkinan kekayaan mineral mengungkapkan bahwa Jakarta tidak akan meninggalkan tanpa perlawanan.
Perkelahian Oleh karena itu, semua juga mungkin. Jika poli-vertikal bergerak untuk mengamankan kemerdekaan Papua goyah gagal atau terlalu lama, komandan OPM mengindikasikan bahwa strategi masa depan mereka akan berkonsentrasi pada penargetan ekonomi. Freeport adalah rentan terhadap serangan gerilya: Grasberg pekerja ingat, mengingat bahwa ada yang bekerja di sana, bagaimana Panguna menguntungkan tambang di Bougainville dekat Pulau ini ditutup pada awal 1990-an: semua Tentara Revolusioner Bougainville harus dilakukannya adalah meledakkan pembangkit listrik dan pembunuhan beberapa ekspatriat. Panguna belum dibuka kembali. Tanpa kehadiran tentara Indonesia dan kesiapan untuk menimbulkan pembalasan, yang perkasa Grasberg akan terekspos seperti Panguna.

Indonesia's next East Timor?

The biggest gold and copper mine in the world stands between West Papua and its hopes for independence. Julian Evansreports
New Guinea is the third-largest island in the world, yet we know little of it. The eastern half, Papua New Guinea, is seen as Australia's problem child, independent but not self-reliant. Of the western half, West Papua, we know even less.
The country blipped on to the western news-map in 1996, when four British science graduates were taken hostage by "Free Papua" guerrillas, but newspapers dismissed the Papuans as "Stone Age terrorists". And when, on 4 June this year, the Second Papuan People's Congress unanimously declared West Papua's independence from Indonesia, there was barely a murmur in the British press.
Jakarta reacted more forcefully, condemning the congress as "illegitimate", warning Papuans that independence was "not an option" and that security forces would act to maintain order. The United States and Japan, followed by the European Union, backed Indonesia's president, Abdurrahman Wahid; Australia issued a statement acknowledging Indonesia's territorial integrity. The Indonesian army and police presence in West Papua has been reinforced from 8,000 to 12,000, and Jakarta has warned of more to come.
There are reports in the Asian press that, as happened in East Timor, pro-Indonesian militias have appeared. Learning from the East Timorese, Papuans have assembled their own militias and, on the streets, where there are regular disturbances, the sides appear evenly matched.
For Indonesia, another proclamation of independence so soon after the loss of East Timor would be hard to swallow. But its greatest concern by far is West Papua's extraordinary natural resources.
Hidden at 4,000 metres in the blue-black ranges of its interior, West Papua possesses the largest reserve of gold on the planet. In the 1998 annual report of the British mining company Rio Tinto plc, gold stocks in New Guinea are given as just over 19 million ounces. Rio Tinto has a 12.5 per cent shareholding in Papua's Grasberg mine, plus a further 40 per cent share in its expansion. The mine is owned by Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold, based in New Orleans, whose gold reserves at Grasberg stand at 85 million ounces. Grasberg's gold is worth $21.5bn. The mine is also the third-largest source of copper, with reserves of 32 million tonnes.
West Papua is as big as Spain, but large parts of it are so dense with jungle and swamp that they have never been mapped. Just over a million Papuans (the rest are transmigrants) belong to hundreds of tribal clans, many living deep in the bush, with no ethnic or religious ties to their Muslim rulers. In the highlands, the men hunt cassowary and tree kangaroos with bows and arrows, while the women labour in the gardens, cook and nurse: it isn't uncommon to find a nursing mother with a child at one breast and a piglet at the other. To see these things is to glimpse our earliest humanity.
To this wilderness came Freeport-McMoRan in 1967, with the blessing of the Indonesian government. No mine on earth moves as much rock each day as Grasberg. When I visited West Papua in 1986, the company was producing 16,000 tonnes of ore a day from a nearby mine. Two years later, Grasberg disclosed its huge plug of copper-gold ore, which had stood in the rock for three million years as equatorial glaciers advanced and retreated around it. Now production is between 200,000 and 300,000 tonnes of ore a day.
Freeport's first contract was signed with Indonesia in April 1967. West Papua had come under interim Indonesian rule four years earlier. The Dutch had not wanted to hand it over with the rest of their East Indies empire, but President Sukarno began to flaunt his new friendship with the Soviet Union, and the United States took fright. The New York Agreement of 1962, brokered by the United Nations but choreographed by Washington, paid lip service to Dutch insistence on self-determination. Under the agreement, Indonesia was allowed six years of interim rule before it had to consult the Papuans as to whether or not they wanted to be annexed. As in East Timor, Indonesian troops were given responsibility for security.
That consultation, known as the "Act of Free Choice", was held on 2 August 1969. The 1,025 Papuan council members who assembled at the army headquarters in the capital, Jayapura, were told by President Suharto's envoy that anyone who voted against Indonesia would have his tongue torn out or be shot on the spot. The vote for integration was unanimous. The province of Irian Jaya was created, and the world was treated to a geopolitical absurdity: anti-colonialism and neocolonialism being used interchangeably in the interests of America's obsession with communism.
Between 1963 and 1969, there were countless Indonesian operations to break Papuan protests, including a bloody bush war by OPM - Organisasi Papua Merdeka ("Free Papua Movement") - resistance fighters. In the 37 years since Indonesian troops arrived, at least 45,000 are believed to have been killed, mostly in villages bombed and burned and in the systematic depopulation, rape and extrajudicial murder of the population. In 1967 alone, 3,500 Papuans were killed. Reports of atrocities by Indonesian soldiers had become so persistent that, on 5 April 1967 in the House of Lords, Lord Ogmore called for a UN investigation. That was also the day that Freeport celebrated the signing of its contract.
The connection between these two events is more than coincidental. Mining companies exist to pile on value. The Grasberg mine's development - not forgetting the contribution of Rio Tinto - so closely mirrors Indonesia's career in West Papua that it is worth considering the two in parallel. There is the question, for example, of the legality of Freeport's 1967 contract, a contract Indonesia probably had no legal right to grant. There have also been revelations that, between 1991 and 1997, the company provided loan guarantees of $673m for the purpose of buying Freeport stock for three Indonesians with close ties to President Suharto or his ministers (one of the businessmen involved, Mohammed "Bob" Hasan, the Suharto aide who introduced Freeport's CEO Jim-Bob Moffett into the president's family circle, was arrested this year in connection with a fraud case).
In July 1999, I flew from Darwin across the Arafura Sea to Timika, the flapping tin-and-concrete mess that is the nearest approach point to the mine; from a village of 200 people 25 years ago, it now has a population approaching 80,000.
I travelled first to the Aikwa river, a cement-coloured throat of water several kilometres wide that receives thousands of tonnes of mine tailings (the rock powder left from the milling process) per day. I stood on the levee with Freeport's environmental manager, surveying a desolate spectacle under a thunderous sky. Eventually, it is estimated, 220 square kilometres of Papuan lowlands will be drowned by tailings. I pointed to the horizon on the far bank, scarred by kilometres of dead trees. The manager said cheerfully: "Oh, they've just had their root systems suffocated by tailings. Unsightly, aren't they? But we'll be cutting them down."
The sight downriver cannot prepare you for the mine. First, there is the spectacular access road. There are no foothills: the blue peaks of the Jayawijaya range burst vertically upwards through the freezing silken mists, so Freeport engineers simply shaved off the crests of a line of knife-edge ridges until the surface was wide enough for two 40-tonne trucks to pass. Higher up, the mine's pipeline runs bare by the roadside, carrying away the ore concentrate to the waiting tankers on the coast. In 1977, in retaliation for land expropriations and armed only with hacksaw blades, OPM fighters and villagers cut this pipe. The army retaliated with Operasi Tumpas ("Operation Annihilation"), bombing, rocketing and strafing villages with US-supplied OV-10 Bronco warplanes.
At Mile 68, there is Tembagapura, the mine's dull-looking township; at Mile 74, a cable tramway transports you the last kilometre and a half through the clouds to the Grasberg's summit. Sliced like a boiled egg, the huge inverted cone at its centre is deepening year by year as the ore is blasted out and borne to the surface in a never- ending caravan of 200-tonne trucks.
For the highland Amungme tribe, on whose land the mine stands, the result has been a spiritual cataclysm. The earth they walk on is their ancestral mother, the mountain her head. Whenever someone died, they used to be taken to the Grasberg's summit. The mine is gouging out their mother's brains before their eyes.
The mine and its infrastructure are an undoubted engineering masterpiece, yet the Papuans' resentment comes under several headings: the company's forcible resettlement of highlanders in the swampy lowlands; the rumours of over-close ties to the Indonesian military; its environmental record and alleged responsibility for human-rights abuses; and money. Where is the money? West Papua should be the most bankable province in the republic, but it remains economically backward, its riches siphoned off to Freeport stockholders and to Jakarta.
Yet perhaps the main question is not even about money. As the head of the Catholic diocese office, Brother Theo van den Broek, puts it: "It is: my land. Me. Where am I in this whole story?"
Possibly because Freeport smells political change, in the past year, it has been moving rock fast. A month ago, a slide of rock waste into Lake Wanagon buried four contractor's employees and injured 18 others. Brother Theo believes the enormous speed of extraction is causing environmental problems. Although the company has claimed a clean bill of health from an independent environmental audit, the mayor of the Timika region recently ordered local people to stop eating tambelo - a water snail that is a staple of the lowland diet - because of suspected high copper levels. At concentrations of less than two parts per million (ppm), copper can cause intestinal and other damage. The Aikwa's copper level is around 10ppm; other metals associated with gold-bearing ores include mercury, arsenic, barium, cadmium and lead. Freeport's ebullient CEO dismisses the environmental impact of the mine as "the equivalent of me pissing in the Arafura Sea".
But the chief source of anger remains the company's ties with the Indonesian military. Freeport cannot dissociate itself from the army: the army is there because Freeport is there. Regular Papuan protests against the mine are routinely met by army reprisals. A Catholic Church report following a series of army attacks in 1994-95, part of a "cleansing operation" against the OPM, listed killings, torture, detention and disappearance of Papuans. The most notorious case was of five men from the Kwalik family. Arrested and tortured, they subsequently vanished and are still missing. Several months later, another Kwalik, an ex-teacher named Kelly, abducted and held hostage the group of British research scientists.
The day before I left Timika, I met Kelly Kwalik's mother, Ibu Josefa, an old- fashioned figure bound in bright cloth, like a polished and carefully wrapped antique. She had found herself in jail in 1995 "because they thought I was giving orders. I was in jail for a month and three days. It was a toilet with water up to my knees." The "toilet" Josefa mentioned was a freezing steel freight container. She and nine others had had to stand in their own excrement for a month. She became blind in her left eye as a result.
Brother Theo reckons that there are between 2,000 and 4,000 army and special forces troops around Timika, more in the hamlets surrounding the mine. "They ask for cars and facilities, and Freeport agrees. One senior executive said to me: 'We don't like it either, but we feel safe.'" During my visit, I was introduced to a number of Freeport officials, including an American called Tom Green, in charge of the "community liaison office". Later I found that, prior to joining Freeport, he had been a military attache at the US embassy in Jakarta.
Back in London, I received some papers from an American lawyer who had represented the Amungme people. Incomplete but revealing, they contained evidence that Freeport has budgeted to equip the military to enable it to perform its violent role. In the year in question - probably the second half of the 1990s - the company was budgetingto finance military headquarters buildings, guard-houses, barracks, parade grounds, ammunition-storage, water, power and fuel installations, tennis and volleyball courts, flagpoles and signwriting. In a list of requirements for Freeport project architects, draughtsmen and engineers, provision had been made for two army advisers. The amounts are substantial, given that the papers weren't complete: for the army $5,160,770, for the police $4,060,000.
At the end of last month, the chairman of the Papuan People's Congress, Theys Eluay, and his deputy, Tom Beanal, were due to meet President Wahid in Jakarta to present the congress's independence proclamation. The meeting was cancelled, and Eluay and Beanal may soon face treason charges. Neither side has room for manoeuvre. If West Papua's fate remains an internal matter, President Wahid is likely to defer to his generals, and Papuan nationalism will be contained by military repression. But there are problems, too, in taking the issue of West Papuan self- determination back to the United Nations.
As every UN diplomat knows, Indonesia has had a recent lesson in the concept of international justice - in East Timor - and will not tolerate another. West Papua is even more vital to Jakarta, and Papuan nationalism more potentially destabilising, inside and outside Indonesia. Grasberg, 4,000 metres up in the south-west highlands, is an economic beachhead. Freeport is one of Indonesia's biggest tax and royalty sources and has a licence to prospect another 2.6 million-hectare area, as far as the Papua New Guinea border. It is likely to reveal mineral wealth that Jakarta will not abandon without a fight.
A fight is, therefore, all too likely. If poli-tical moves to secure Papuan independence fail or falter too long, OPM commanders have indicated that their future strategy will concentrate on economic targeting. Freeport is vulnerable to guerrilla attack: Grasberg workers remember, given that some were employed there, how the profitable Panguna mine on nearby Bougainville Island was closed in the early 1990s: all the Bougainville Revolutionary Army had to do was blow up a power plant and murder a couple of expatriates. Panguna has not reopened. Without the Indonesian army's presence and readiness to inflict reprisals, the mighty Grasberg mine would be as exposed as Panguna.

Now production is between 200,000 and 300,000 tonnes of ore a day.
Freeport's first contract was signed with Indonesia in April 1967. West Papua had come under interim Indonesian rule four years earlier. The Dutch had not wanted to hand it over with the rest of their East Indies empire, but President Sukarno began to flaunt his new friendship with the Soviet Union, and the United States took fright. The New York Agreement of 1962, brokered by the United Nations but choreographed by Washington, paid lip service to Dutch insistence on self-determination. Under the agreement, Indonesia was allowed six years of interim rule before it had to consult the Papuans as to whether or not they wanted to be annexed. As in East Timor, Indonesian troops were given responsibility for security.
That consultation, known as the "Act of Free Choice", was held on 2 August 1969. The 1,025 Papuan council members who assembled at the army headquarters in the capital, Jayapura, were told by President Suharto's envoy that anyone who voted against Indonesia would have his tongue torn out or be shot on the spot. The vote for integration was unanimous. The province of Irian Jaya was created, and the world was treated to a geopolitical absurdity: anti-colonialism and neocolonialism being used interchangeably in the interests of America's obsession with communism.
Between 1963 and 1969, there were countless Indonesian operations to break Papuan protests, including a bloody bush war by OPM - Organisasi Papua Merdeka ("Free Papua Movement") - resistance fighters. In the 37 years since Indonesian troops arrived, at least 45,000 are believed to have been killed, mostly in villages bombed and burned and in the systematic depopulation, rape and extrajudicial murder of the population. In 1967 alone, 3,500 Papuans were killed. Reports of atrocities by Indonesian soldiers had become so persistent that, on 5 April 1967 in the House of Lords, Lord Ogmore called for a UN investigation. That was also the day that Freeport celebrated the signing of its contract.
The connection between these two events is more than coincidental. Mining companies exist to pile on value. The Grasberg mine's development - not forgetting the contribution of Rio Tinto - so closely mirrors Indonesia's career in West Papua that it is worth considering the two in parallel. There is the question, for example, of the legality of Freeport's 1967 contract, a contract Indonesia probably had no legal right to grant. There have also been revelations that, between 1991 and 1997, the company provided loan guarantees of $673m for the purpose of buying Freeport stock for three Indonesians with close ties to President Suharto or his ministers (one of the businessmen involved, Mohammed "Bob" Hasan, the Suharto aide who introduced Freeport's CEO Jim-Bob Moffett into the president's family circle, was arrested this year in connection with a fraud case).
In July 1999, I flew from Darwin across the Arafura Sea to Timika, the flapping tin-and-concrete mess that is the nearest approach point to the mine; from a village of 200 people 25 years ago, it now has a population approaching 80,000.
I travelled first to the Aikwa river, a cement-coloured throat of water several kilometres wide that receives thousands of tonnes of mine tailings (the rock powder left from the milling process) per day. I stood on the levee with Freeport's environmental manager, surveying a desolate spectacle under a thunderous sky. Eventually, it is estimated, 220 square kilometres of Papuan lowlands will be drowned by tailings. I pointed to the horizon on the far bank, scarred by kilometres of dead trees. The manager said cheerfully: "Oh, they've just had their root systems suffocated by tailings. Unsightly, aren't they? But we'll be cutting them down."
The sight downriver cannot prepare you for the mine. First, there is the spectacular access road. There are no foothills: the blue peaks of the Jayawijaya range burst vertically upwards through the freezing silken mists, so Freeport engineers simply shaved off the crests of a line of knife-edge ridges until the surface was wide enough for two 40-tonne trucks to pass. Higher up, the mine's pipeline runs bare by the roadside, carrying away the ore concentrate to the waiting tankers on the coast. In 1977, in retaliation for land expropriations and armed only with hacksaw blades, OPM fighters and villagers cut this pipe. The army retaliated with Operasi Tumpas ("Operation Annihilation"), bombing, rocketing and strafing villages with US-supplied OV-10 Bronco warplanes.
At Mile 68, there is Tembagapura, the mine's dull-looking township; at Mile 74, a cable tramway transports you the last kilometre and a half through the clouds to the Grasberg's summit. Sliced like a boiled egg, the huge inverted cone at its centre is deepening year by year as the ore is blasted out and borne to the surface in a never- ending caravan of 200-tonne trucks.
For the highland Amungme tribe, on whose land the mine stands, the result has been a spiritual cataclysm. The earth they walk on is their ancestral mother, the mountain her head. Whenever someone died, they used to be taken to the Grasberg's summit. The mine is gouging out their mother's brains before their eyes.
The mine and its infrastructure are an undoubted engineering masterpiece, yet the Papuans' resentment comes under several headings: the company's forcible resettlement of highlanders in the swampy lowlands; the rumours of over-close ties to the Indonesian military; its environmental record and alleged responsibility for human-rights abuses; and money. Where is the money? West Papua should be the most bankable province in the republic, but it remains economically backward, its riches siphoned off to Freeport stockholders and to Jakarta.
Yet perhaps the main question is not even about money. As the head of the Catholic diocese office, Brother Theo van den Broek, puts it: "It is: my land. Me. Where am I in this whole story?"
Possibly because Freeport smells political change, in the past year, it has been moving rock fast. A month ago, a slide of rock waste into Lake Wanagon buried four contractor's employees and injured 18 others. Brother Theo believes the enormous speed of extraction is causing environmental problems. Although the company has claimed a clean bill of health from an independent environmental audit, the mayor of the Timika region recently ordered local people to stop eating tambelo - a water snail that is a staple of the lowland diet - because of suspected high copper levels. At concentrations of less than two parts per million (ppm), copper can cause intestinal and other damage. The Aikwa's copper level is around 10ppm; other metals associated with gold-bearing ores include mercury, arsenic, barium, cadmium and lead. Freeport's ebullient CEO dismisses the environmental impact of the mine as "the equivalent of me pissing in the Arafura Sea".
But the chief source of anger remains the company's ties with the Indonesian military. Freeport cannot dissociate itself from the army: the army is there because Freeport is there. Regular Papuan protests against the mine are routinely met by army reprisals. A Catholic Church report following a series of army attacks in 1994-95, part of a "cleansing operation" against the OPM, listed killings, torture, detention and disappearance of Papuans. The most notorious case was of five men from the Kwalik family. Arrested and tortured, they subsequently vanished and are still missing. Several months later, another Kwalik, an ex-teacher named Kelly, abducted and held hostage the group of British research scientists.
The day before I left Timika, I met Kelly Kwalik's mother, Ibu Josefa, an old- fashioned figure bound in bright cloth, like a polished and carefully wrapped antique. She had found herself in jail in 1995 "because they thought I was giving orders. I was in jail for a month and three days. It was a toilet with water up to my knees." The "toilet" Josefa mentioned was a freezing steel freight container. She and nine others had had to stand in their own excrement for a month. She became blind in her left eye as a result.
Brother Theo reckons that there are between 2,000 and 4,000 army and special forces troops around Timika, more in the hamlets surrounding the mine. "They ask for cars and facilities, and Freeport agrees. One senior executive said to me: 'We don't like it either, but we feel safe.'" During my visit, I was introduced to a number of Freeport officials, including an American called Tom Green, in charge of the "community liaison office". Later I found that, prior to joining Freeport, he had been a military attache at the US embassy in Jakarta.
Back in London, I received some papers from an American lawyer who had represented the Amungme people. Incomplete but revealing, they contained evidence that Freeport has budgeted to equip the military to enable it to perform its violent role. In the year in question - probably the second half of the 1990s - the company was budgetingto finance military headquarters buildings, guard-houses, barracks, parade grounds, ammunition-storage, water, power and fuel installations, tennis and volleyball courts, flagpoles and signwriting. In a list of requirements for Freeport project architects, draughtsmen and engineers, provision had been made for two army advisers. The amounts are substantial, given that the papers weren't complete: for the army $5,160,770, for the police $4,060,000.
At the end of last month, the chairman of the Papuan People's Congress, Theys Eluay, and his deputy, Tom Beanal, were due to meet President Wahid in Jakarta to present the congress's independence proclamation. The meeting was cancelled, and Eluay and Beanal may soon face treason charges. Neither side has room for manoeuvre. If West Papua's fate remains an internal matter, President Wahid is likely to defer to his generals, and Papuan nationalism will be contained by military repression. But there are problems, too, in taking the issue of West Papuan self- determination back to the United Nations.
As every UN diplomat knows, Indonesia has had a recent lesson in the concept of international justice - in East Timor - and will not tolerate another. West Papua is even more vital to Jakarta, and Papuan nationalism more potentially destabilising, inside and outside Indonesia. Grasberg, 4,000 metres up in the south-west highlands, is an economic beachhead. Freeport is one of Indonesia's biggest tax and royalty sources and has a licence to prospect another 2.6 million-hectare area, as far as the Papua New Guinea border. It is likely to reveal mineral wealth that Jakarta will not abandon without a fight.
A fight is, therefore, all too likely. If poli-tical moves to secure Papuan independence fail or falter too long, OPM commanders have indicated that their future strategy will concentrate on economic targeting. Freeport is vulnerable to guerrilla attack: Grasberg workers remember, given that some were employed there, how the profitable Panguna mine on nearby Bougainville Island was closed in the early 1990s: all the Bougainville Revolutionary Army had to do was blow up a power plant and murder a couple of expatriates. Panguna has not reopened. Without the Indonesian army's presence and readiness to inflict reprisals, the mighty Grasberg mine would be as exposed as Panguna.

Dua Kubu Gereja Bentrok
Dua Kubu Gereja Bentrok
Tiga Luka, 3 Motor Dibakar, Ruang Kuliah dan 1 Rumah Dirusak Polisi Lepaskan Tembakan Untuk Tenangkan Massa
JAYAPURA—Diduga dipicu perebutan kekuasaan Yayasan Sekolah Tinggi Teologia (STT) Baptis Papua di Jalan Jeruk Nipis Kotaraja, yang sudah menjadi persoalan lama, akhirnya pecah pada Jumat (19/3) pukul 14.00 WP kemarin.
Saling serang disertai bidikan anak panah terjadi antar dua kubu, sedikitnya tiga orang dilaporkan jadi korban dalam peristiwa itu. Sayangya hingga berita ini naik cetak indentitas korban tersebut belum diketahui.
Dua kubu saling berlawanan tersebut adalah kubu Pirinus Kogoya dan milik Socrates Sofyan Yoman. Tidak tanggung-tanggung tiga orang terluka parah, dari informasi yang diperoleh di lapangan, satu korban terkena tembakan anak panah tepat mengenai badannya, dan lainnya terkena hantaman benda keras, tepat di kepala bagian belakang. Selain korban luka-luka juga tiga unit motor yang di parkir di halaman kampuspun ikut ludes terbakar karena amukan massa, dan dua gedung kuliah, serta rumah milik salah satu dosen ikut dirusak massa.
Kejadian yang bermula hanya terjadi di dalam areal kampus itu pun meluas sampai ke luar, bahkan dari pantauan wartawan Harian Bintang Papua di lapangan, dua kubu ini saling berhadapan muka dan melempar batu ke arah masing-masing.
Peristiwa ini membuat warga menjadi panik, pasalnya kejar-kejaran antara dua kubu terjadi di sepanjang jalur jalan utama Abepura-Jayapura.
Beruntung polisi yang tiba di TKP 15 menit setelah aksi pecah, dapat mengusai ketegangan yang ada, tembakan untuk menghalau kedua kubu agar menghentikan aksinya pun tidak terhindar. Namun sayangnya polisi yang berhasil memenangkan massa, kembali harus melepaskan tembakan setelah 30 menit dapat mengusai TKP, pasalnya beberapa warga masyarakat dari salah satu kubu mencoba menyerang kubu lainnya yang berhasil ditenangkan aparat kepolisian.
Kapolresta Jayapura, AKBP Imam Setiayawan yang langsung turun ke lapangan kepada wartawan mengatakan, untuk sementara ini polisi melakukan pendekatan untuk menenangkan kedua kubu yang bertikai, dan sementara ini ada dua korban yang berhasil diindentifikasi.
“Ini masalah lama, masalah gereja, jadi kita masih selidiki lebih lanjut, sementara ada dua korban ” singkat Kapolres.
Sementara itu, dari pantauan Bintang Papua higga pukul 17.00 WP kemarin, lokasi TKP masih terlihat tegang, satu kubuh masih bertahan, melengkapi diri mereka dengan panah, tombak, parang serta benda-benda keras lainnya. Sementara itu salah satu kubu, berada di luar TKP dan terlihat berkumpul di jalan masuk kantor Dinas Otonom Kota Raja, polisi masih terus melakukan penjagaan di TKP guna mencegah terjadi serangan susulan dari kedua kubu ini.

Jayapura-Papua Customary Council (DAP) will not use the methods of struggle hidden Underground again to deal with the international communities to immediately realize the sovereignty of the Nation To Nation West Papua, but it's time to open to the world struggle will be intensified international fight in the year 2010 it.
Open struggle for the immediate realization Political Rights Papua Nations officially launched Forkorus Yoboisembut DAP chairman who immediately distributed to the International World.
This was conveyed to the Press Forkorus Yobisembut, Friday (19 / 3) in Abepura. Say, this appeal followed up his speech at the time Kelly Kwalik killed. One of the DAP chairman's speech item, ie, DAP provides deadlines until February 2010 to the Government of Indonesia for responding what the West Papuan nation fight for the rights politics.
But it turns out, what's so demands DAP has been no attempt to realize soon. This makes the DAP will take steps further, because for this DAP is still appreciates the Indonesian government to act to resolve political disputes and the status of Natural Resources, Social, Economic Papuan People's nation.
Forkorus said, after the time limit of the fore in February and there was no sign of effort and good will shown, then this is when DAP has taken action to further political and Indonesian Governments should not masalahkan political steps taken by DAP.
It's time to take steps DAP politics and policy in resolving the political status of West Papua nation which has been valid since May 1, 1961. It is said also that the background of light action DAP released publicly open to the International based on facts that occurred in Papua to a number of humanitarian issues, the dynamics of political, social, economic and others. The People's Voice West Papua who shouted, said Forkorus is an underlying thing that DAP Struggle The Papuan people's voice can be heard.
The DAP's call issued by Number: 005 / Ketum-DAP / III / 2010 on the settlement of the dispute between the Nation and the Government of West Papua, the Indonesian nation, a call addressed to all parties at regional and international interest in the country of Papua and its natural resources and Papuan indigenous people continue to struggle in a peaceful and still uphold democracy and human rights.
The contents of the call will be sent to the nation the nation in the international community is that the problems in West Papua that has occurred and lasted from 1963 until now, no matter the domestic chores aatau Indonesian government, but disputes between the two countries, between West Papua and the Nation Indonesia on the political status of Papua and the seizure of land and natural resources.
Described, such as disputes over points has made the life of West Papua indigenous people do not feel calm, comfortable and healthy, so that the indigenous population demographics of western Papua sifnifikan not develop, either from the quality and quantity, this can be proved, that in 1969 indigenous people of Papua's population numbered approximately 900,000 indigenous people jiwasekarang Papuan population just over 800,000, up to 2010 recorded 1.5 million people, this amount when compared to East Papua (PNG) the same race at the 1969 population of approximately 900,000 inhabitants and is now the number of Papua New Guinea's population is 7 million people in the same period.
Problems indigenous population of Papua is not developed, by the DAP is considered as an indication that genocide has occurred creeping slowly but surely.
Next DAP rate Otsus Law, Law on Regional Government and a number of other laws and regulation applicable in Papua since 1969 until now 2010 can not guarantee future rights of the indigenous communities of Papua.

DAP Keluarkan Seruan Terbuka Internasional
DAP Keluarkan Seruan Terbuka Internasional
JAYAPURA—Dewan Adat Papua (DAP) tidak akan mengunakan cara- cara perjuangan Bawah Tanah yang tersembunyi lagi untuk berhubungan dengan dunia Internasional untuk segera mewujudkan Kedaulatan sebagai Bangsa Bagi Bangsa Papua Barat, melainkan sudah saatnya perjuangan terbuka kepada Dunia Internasional akan gencar diperjuangkan dalam tahun 2010 ini.
Perjuangan terbuka untuk segera mewujudkan Hak Politik Bangsa Papua secara resmi dikeluarkan Ketua DAP Forkorus Yoboisembut yang segera disebarluaskan kepada Dunia Internasional.
Demikian disampaikan Forkorus Yobisembut kepada Pers, Jumat (19/3) di Abepura. Dikatakan, seruan ini menindaklanjuti pidatonya pada saat Kelly Kwalik dibunuh. Salah satu butir pidato Ketua DAP, yakni DAP memberikan deadline hingga Februari 2010 kepada Pemerintah Indonesia untuk meresponi apa yang Bangsa Papua Barat Perjuangkan yakni Hak Politiknya.
Namun ternyata, apa yang jadi tuntutan DAP belum ada upaya segera merealisasikannya. Hal ini membuat DAP akan mengambil langkah- langkah lebih jauh,sebab selama ini DAP masih menghargai Pemerintah Indonesia agar bertindak dalam menyelesaikan sengketa status Politik dan Sumber Daya Alam, Social, Ekonomi Rakyat bangsa Papua.
Forkorus mengatakan, setelah batas waktu yang ditentukan yakni Februari dan bulan kedepannya ternyata tidak ada upaya dan tanda baik yang mau ditunjukkan, maka saat inilah DAP telah mengambil tindakan Politik yang lebih jauh dan Pemerintah Indonesia tidak boleh masalahkan langkah politik yang diambil DAP.
Sudah waktunya DAP mengambil Langkah dan kebijakan Politiknya dalam menyelesaikan status Politik Bangsa Papua Barat yang telah sah sejak 1 Mei 1961. Dikatakan juga bahwa latarbelakang tindakan terang terangan DAP yang dikeluarkan terbuka kepada Internasional berdasarkan kenyataan yang terjadi di Papua terhadap sejumlah masalah kemanusiaan, dinamika Politik,social, ekonomi dan lainnya. Suara Rakyat Bangsa Papua Barat yang berteriak, kata Forkorus adalah suatu hal yang melatarbelakangi Perjuangan DAP supaya suara rakyat Bangsa Papua dapat didengar.
Adapun seruan DAP yang dikeluarkan dengan Nomor : 005/ Ketum- DAP /III/ 2010 tentang penyelesaian sengketa antara Bangsa Papua Barat dan Pemerintah Bangsa Indonesia, seruan yang ditujukan kepada semua pihak ditingkat regional dan Internasional yang berkepentingan dengan Tanah Air Papua dan sumber Daya Alamnya serta Masyarakat asli Papua yang terus berjuang secara damai dan tetap menjunjung demokrasi dan Hak Asasi Manusia.
Isi seruan yang akan dikirimkan kepada Bangsa bangsa di dunia Internasional adalah bahwa persoalan di Tanah Papua Barat yang telah terjadi dan berlangsung sejak 1963 sampai sekarang, bukanlah persoalan dalam negeri aatau urusan rumah tangga Pemerintah Indonesia tetapi persengketaan antara dua Negara, yaitu antara Bangsa Papua Barat dan Indonesia tentang status Politik bangsa Papua dan perebutan tanah serta sumber Daya Alam.
Dijelaskan, persengketaan tersebut seperti poin diatas telah membuat kehidupan orang asli Papua barat tidak merasa tenang, nyaman dan sehat, sehingga secara demografi populasi masyarakat asli Papua barat tidak berkembang secara sifnifikan, baik dari kualitas maupun kuantitas, hal ini dapat dibuktikan, bahwa pada tahun 1969 populasi orang asli Papua berjumlah kurang lebih 900.000 jiwasekarang populasi orang asli Papua hanya 800.000 jiwa, hingga 2010 tercatat 1,5 juta jiwa, jumlah ini bila dibandingkan dengan Papua Timur(PNG) yang sama ras pada 1969 populasinya berjumlah kurang lebih 900.000 jiwa dan sekarang jumlah populasi Papua New Guinea adalah 7 juta jiwa dalam kurun waktu yang sama.
Masalah populasi penduduk asli Papua yang tidak berkembang, oleh DAP dianggap sebagai indikasi bahwa telah terjadi creeping genocide secara perlahan namun pasti.
Selanjutnya DAP menilai UU Otsus, UU Otonomi Daerah dan sejumlah peraturan perundang undangan lain yang berlaku di Tanah Papua sejak 1969 sampai sekarang 2010 tidak dapat menjamin masa depan hak hidup masyarakat asli Papua.
Dijelaskan, masyarakat adat dan asli Papua yang semakin termarjinal dan menjadi minoritas dan cenderung menuju kepunahan akiba genocida, hal ini nampak pada kampung kampung yang ada di Papua yang dianggap sebagai tempat hidup dan bekembangnya populasi orang asli Papua secara kuantitas maupun kualitas, disertai adat budaya yang semakin terkikis menuju kepunahan, tanah tanah adapt sebagai penunjang ekonomi yang pertama dan utama mulai kehilangan hak kepemilikan secara mayoritas bagi orang Papua, dimana pengolahan dan pemanfaatan hutan tanpa MoU dengan masyarakat adapt pemilik hutan dari setiap suku.
Melihat kenyataan permasalahan klasik konflik social, ekonomi hingga status Politik Bangsa Papua, maka DAP kata Forkorus akan memainkan lobi Politik secara transparan dengan Dunia Internasional, dan Pemerintah Indonesia tidak boleh katakana perjuangan DAP alah perjuangan separatis, ditegaskan bahwa sengketa Politik Papua harus diselesaikan, DAP mendukung proses dialog yang sedang digagas, namun perjuangan go Internasional sudah diketahui Dunia,sebab sengketa BANGSA Papua karena status Politiknya yang telah dianeksasikan.
DAP tetap mendukung Dialog yang digagas Pater Neles dan LIPI, Ketua DAP ini menilai bahwa jika dialog terjadi, hendaknya adil, tidak boleh kejadian pada 1969 PEPERA terjadi dimana Rakyat Bangsa Papua tidak terlibat didalamnya, pada hal masalah yang dibahas adalah masalah rakyat Bangsa Papua, ujarnya.

Dijelaskan, persengketaan tersebut seperti poin diatas telah membuat kehidupan orang asli Papua barat tidak merasa tenang, nyaman dan sehat, sehingga secara demografi populasi masyarakat asli Papua barat tidak berkembang secara sifnifikan, baik dari kualitas maupun kuantitas, hal ini dapat dibuktikan, bahwa pada tahun 1969 populasi orang asli Papua berjumlah kurang lebih 900.000 jiwasekarang populasi orang asli Papua hanya 800.000 jiwa, hingga 2010 tercatat 1,5 juta jiwa, jumlah ini bila dibandingkan dengan Papua Timur(PNG) yang sama ras pada 1969 populasinya berjumlah kurang lebih 900.000 jiwa dan sekarang jumlah populasi Papua New Guinea adalah 7 juta jiwa dalam kurun waktu yang sama.
Masalah populasi penduduk asli Papua yang tidak berkembang, oleh DAP dianggap sebagai indikasi bahwa telah terjadi creeping genocide secara perlahan namun pasti.
Selanjutnya DAP menilai UU Otsus, UU Otonomi Daerah dan sejumlah peraturan perundang undangan lain yang berlaku di Tanah Papua sejak 1969 sampai sekarang 2010 tidak dapat menjamin masa depan hak hidup masyarakat asli Papua.
Dijelaskan, masyarakat adat dan asli Papua yang semakin termarjinal dan menjadi minoritas dan cenderung menuju kepunahan akiba genocida, hal ini nampak pada kampung kampung yang ada di Papua yang dianggap sebagai tempat hidup dan bekembangnya populasi orang asli Papua secara kuantitas maupun kualitas, disertai adat budaya yang semakin terkikis menuju kepunahan, tanah tanah adapt sebagai penunjang ekonomi yang pertama dan utama mulai kehilangan hak kepemilikan secara mayoritas bagi orang Papua, dimana pengolahan dan pemanfaatan hutan tanpa MoU dengan masyarakat adapt pemilik hutan dari setiap suku.
Melihat kenyataan permasalahan klasik konflik social, ekonomi hingga status Politik Bangsa Papua, maka DAP kata Forkorus akan memainkan lobi Politik secara transparan dengan Dunia Internasional, dan Pemerintah Indonesia tidak boleh katakana perjuangan DAP alah perjuangan separatis, ditegaskan bahwa sengketa Politik Papua harus diselesaikan, DAP mendukung proses dialog yang sedang digagas, namun perjuangan go Internasional sudah diketahui Dunia,sebab sengketa BANGSA Papua karena status Politiknya yang telah dianeksasikan.
DAP tetap mendukung Dialog yang digagas Pater Neles dan LIPI, Ketua DAP ini menilai bahwa jika dialog terjadi, hendaknya adil, tidak boleh kejadian pada 1969 PEPERA terjadi dimana Rakyat Bangsa Papua tidak terlibat didalamnya, pada hal masalah yang dibahas adalah masalah rakyat Bangsa Papua, ujarnya.

Massa Minta Dukungan Obama PDF Cetak E-mail Kamis, 18 Maret 2010 22:26 Massa Minta Dukungan Obama Untuk Mewujudkan Kemerdekaan ‘Bangsa Papu
JAYAPURA—Komite Nasional Papua Barat (KNPB) beserta pendukungnya menggelar aksi unjukrasa di Halaman Gedung DPRP di Jalan Samratulangi, Kota Jayapura, Kamis (18/3). Aksi unjukrasa ini merupakan kelanjutan aksi yang dilakukan di Sentani dan depan Kantor Pos dan Giro Abepura sejak pagi kemarin. Massa menuntut DPRP memfasilitasi sejumlah perwakilan KNPB beserta elemen elemen pendukungnya untuk berangkat menemui Presiden Amerika Serikat Barack Obama yang menurut rencana akan melakukan kunjungan kenegaraan ke Jakarta pada pekan depan.
Massa sempat mengancam apabila DPRP tak memfasilitasi pertemuan KNPB beserta pendukungnya, akan menduduki halaman DPRP hingga tuntutan bertemu Presiden Obama direalisasikan. Alasannya, Presiden Amerika Omaba , mesti bertanggungjawab atas segala ketidakadilan yang dilakukan terhadap hak- hak rakyat Papua Barat.
Dikatakan, masalah Papua tak pernah diselesaikan pemerintah RI, padahal bangsa Papua Barat pernah menikamti kemerdekaannya sejak tahun 1962, tapi pemerintah Indonesia mengambil kembali dimana saat ini bangsa Papua dininabobokan melalui pemberian dana Otonomi Khusus dari pemerintah Indonesia sebagai suatu upaya membungkam rakyat Papua.
“Kami menolak Otonomi Khusus bagi rakyat Papua dan akan terus menuntut kemerdekaan bangsa Papua Barat lepas dari NKRI,” ujar massa. “Keinginan bangsa Papua Barat untuk merdeka tak pernah ditanggapi pemerintah Indonesia. Padahal bangsa Papua Barat ingin hidup aman dan tenteram di tanah yang Tuhan berikan kepada mereka”.
Menurut massa, salah satu agenda kunjungan Presiden Obama adalah melakukan dialog antara Papua—-Jakarta. Padahal rencana dilakukan dialog Papua—Jakarta selama ini mendapat penolakan dari sejumlah massa yang tergabung didalam pro otonomi. Massa juga membentangkan spanduk dan pamlet antara lain berbunyi Rakyat Papua menuntut segera membebaskan Tapol/Napo tanpa syarat, Reviev Ulang Pepera 1969, Dengan tegas rakyat Papua menolak dialog Jakarta—Papua, Segera Tutup PT Freeport Indonesia serta segera tarik militer dari Papua.
“Kami secara khusus ingin menyampaikan kepada Presiden Amerika Serikat Barack Obama agar mendesak pemerintah RI untuk memberikan referendum kepada bangsa Papua Barat untuk mengurus nasibnya sendiri atau menuntut kemerdekaan bangsa Papua Barat,” ujar salah seorang koordinator aksi. Disambut pekikan massa dengan yel Hidup Referendum, Otsus Gagal dan lain lain.
Setelah sejam menggelar orasi muncul para anggota DPRP yang keluar dari ruangan masing masing dan menunggu di pintu utama Gedung DPRP menemui para pengunjukrasa. Mereka masing masing Yunus Wonda (Wakil Ketua I), Carolus Boli (Anggota Komisi C, Boy Dawir (Wakil Ketua Komisi D), Adolf Asmuruf (Anggota Komisi D), Nason Uti (Anggota Komisi D), Hagar Aksamina (Anggota Komisi E), Jefri Kaunang (Anggota Komisi D), Tony Irfandi (Anggota Komisi C), Ananias Pigay (Wakil Ketua Komisi E) dan Magdalena Matuan (Anggota Komisi E).
Wakil Ketua I DPRP Yunus Wonda di hadapan massa KNPB mengatakan, pihaknya akan menyampaikan aspirasi yang disampaikan kepada Presiden Amerika Serikat Barack Obama dan pemerintah RI bahwa KNPB beserta elemen elemen pendukungnya ingin bertemu untuk menyampaikan kemerdekaan dan hak hak hidup bangsa Papua Barat.
Massapun akhirnya dengan tertib memberikan kesempatan kepada para wakil rakyat untuk kembali keruangannya masing masing agar perwakilan KNPB beserta elemen elemen pendukungnya dapat menemui dan memberikan tuntutan untuk disampaikan kepada Presiden Amerika Serikat Barack Obama dan pemerintah RI.
Massa yang tiba di Perempatan Taman Imbi, itu didahului barisan sepeda motor yang langsung memasuki pintu gerbang Gedung DPRP dan melakukan aksinya memutar disekitar rumah rakyat ini. Setelah itu muncul barisan massa membawa spanduk, pamlet dan bendera berwarna merah. Mereka dihentikan 2 kendaraan lapis baja dan petugas gabungan dari Polresta Jayapura dan Satuan Brimob Polda Papua. Tiba tiba muncul massa yang datang dari arah Polda Papua dan langsung bergabung bersama massa yang berkumpul di Taman Imbi, Kota Jayapura.
Setelah dilakukan pendekatan dari petugas Polresta Jayapura yang dipimpin Kabag Ops Polresta Jayapura AKP Dominggus Rumaropen SSos, akhirnya massa diizinkan untuk memasuki Halaman Gedung DPRP. Massapun masuk dan berlari mengelilingi taman air mancur ditengah Gedung DPRP sambil meneriakan yel Papua Merdeka yang dipimpin seorang pria yang berdiri diatas mobil yang disiapkan sebelumnya.
Beberapa saat kemudian, Koordinator Lapangan aksi unjukrasa menenangkan massa kemudian dilakukan orasi dan pembacaan puisi dari masing masing elemen pendukung KNPB yang isinya menuntut pemberian referendum bagi rakyat Papua Barat untuk mengurus dirinya sendiri terlepas dari Negara Kesatuan Republik Indonesia (NKRI).
Hingga berita ini diturunkan massa KNPB dan elemen- elemen pendukungnya masih menduduki Halaman Gedung DPRP.
Sempat Palang Uncen Waena
Sebelumnya massa berkumpul di Kampus Uncen baru Waena. Dalam aksi yang diawali dengan pemalangan di Gapura Kampus Uncen Baru Waena sekitar pukul 09.00 WIT, tidak lama kemudian massa melakukan long marc menuju putaran taksi Perumnas III yang telah terlebih dahulu didrop pasukan keamanan dari kepolisian. Dari panatauan Bintang Papua, di mata jalan masuk ke Kampus Waena tersebut massa kemudian ditemui Pembantu Rektor III Drs. Paulus L Holmers,M.Si. dan Kapolsekta Abepura AKP Yafet Karafir. Setelah berdialog beberapa saat, kemudian disepakati untuk menjaga agar aksi demontrasi tidak terjadi anarkisme. Massa akhirnya bersedia diangkut dengan truk yang disediakan aparat kepolisian menuju DPRP.
Dan dalam perjalanan, sesampainya di Perumnas II Waena, massa dari Ekspo Waena datang sebanyak dua truk beserta puluhan pengendara sepeda motor, sehingga jumlah truk yang tadinya enam bertambah jadi delapan truk pengangkut para demonstran.
Paulus L Holmers mengungkapkan bahwa pihaknya sudah melakukan pelarangan kepada penanggungjawab aksi demontrasi yang memanfaatkan Uncen sebagai titik kumpul massa. ‘’Demo ini dari tahun ke tahun Uncen jadi sasaran titik kumpul massa. Pertimbangan pertama adalah mereka menganggap bahwa massa ada di sini. Kemudian mereka menganggap di Uncen Baru Waena ini menjadi tempat empuk bagi mereka. Berulang kali kita sudah himbau melalui surat tertulis tetapi mereka tetap melakukan. Dan ini tahun ini dilakukan sebagian besar mahasiswa,’’ ungkapnya saat ditemui di sela-sela memberikan arahan kepada pendemo untuk tertib.
Dan karena sebagian, besar pendemo adalah mahasiswa, Paulus L Holmers mengharapkan tidak terjadi anarkisme. ‘’Saya harap demo ini dilakukan secara baik, secara berwibawa karena ini mahasiswa yang demo. Bukan rakyat-rakyat biasa yang demo. Kemudian menghindarkan diri dengan kegiatan-kegiatan yang menjurus ppada anarkis. Kami sangat tidak harapkan itu,’’ ungkapnya dengan tegas. (mdc/ven/cr-10)
destroy the state agency law, the special autonomy undfang papua
Amirudin Elsam political analyst Al Rahab says, almost all state institutions are not well studied with the Law of Special Autonomy (Autonomy) Papua number 21 in 2001. In fact destroy it.
"Autonomy Law of Papua was not used again. Since it was changed to 15 products other rules are conflicting, "said Amirudin in Photo Exhibition and Public Discussion Save the Humans and Forests of Papua in the Commission's office, Wednesday (24 / 2).
For example, Amirudin said, about local elections in Papua. When referring to the Autonomy Law, the election conducted directly by the people of Papua. But the government issued Government Regulation number 2005 of 6-year local elections by the DPRD. "This is opposite Autonomy Law on direct election by the people," he said.
Similarly, out of the Constitutional Court decision on 1 February. The Constitutional Court decided that the addition of 11 seats in the House of Representatives of Papua as the implementation of the Law of Papua Special Autonomy.
According Amirudin, the Constitutional Court did not think the criteria, how the election and handed back to the governor. "It sent people of Papua infringe own," he lamented.
From these facts, assess Amirudin not one of consistency among state agencies to resolve the issue of Papua. In fact, to cover up the failures, the issue of separatism is used as a safe haven in politics. This is an irony because for 40 years Papuan issue has a solution not go exactly.
Executive Secretary of the NGO Cooperation Forum in Papua J Manufandu Septer said, the existence of Autonomy Law became a problem in Papua, not the solution.
Fundamental problems in Papua it was not resolved until now though it was introduced Autonomy. Septer then presented a number of other issues about the land of Papua pengkaplingan for investment. "Dikapling land for oil and gas interests, mining, minerals, HTI, concessions," he said.
So the only vacant land conservation areas. "Would there have been no orangkah," he questioned the motives pengkaplingan it.
While the population living below the poverty line just to be around the area rich in natural resources. Conflict also broke out in almost all areas, whether it is political conflict, economic, social and cultural.
Septer and suggested the importance of dialogue to resolve all the problems in the land of Papua. Dialogue, he said, facilitated by a moderator who can hold parties in conflict in Papua. At the same military that the number should be reduced from the land of Papua and rebuild public trust to the government.

Kedubes AS di Jakarta Didemo Warga पापुआ, उन्तुक मेनिन्जु केम्बली मसलह papua
JAKARTA - Sebanyak 50 orang yang menamakan diri Koalisi Perjuangan Papua Barat berunjuk rasa di depan Kantor Kedutaan Besar Amerika Serikat (AS) di Jakarta, siang ini.
Pendemo merupakan mahasiswa asal Papua yang tinggal di Jawa-Bali ini dalam aksinya, Rabu (17/3/2010) membentangkan spanduk bertuliskan, "Selamat Datang kepada Obama".
Dalam orasinya, mereka mendesak Presiden Barack Obama untuk meninjau kembali Penentuan Pendapat Rakyat (Pepera) atau referendum yang diadakan pada tahun 1969. Sebab, menurut warga Papua, Pepera tersebut tidak demokrastis dan jujur.
Selain itu, massa juga menuntut pemerintah AS untuk menghentikan bantuan dana otonomi khusus (otsus) Papua kepada Pemerintah Indonesia. "Amerika punya sejarah terhadap Papua dengan memberikan dana untuk otomi khusus," ungkap A Okama Kossay, juru bicara pendemo.
Dalam unjuk rasa, mereka juga meminta AS menghentikan bantuan fasilitas kepada TNI dan Polri, karena institusi tersebut terbukti melakukan pelanggaran HAM terhadap warga Papua. Selain itu, warga Papua ini meminta agar PBB melakukan investigasi atas pelanggaran HAM oleh Pemerintah RI sejak tahun 1963 di Papua.
Keberadaan PT Freeport juga tak lepas dari perhatian pengunjuk rasa. Mereka mendesak AS meninjau kembali kontrak karya PT Freeport agar diakukan secara jujur dan demokratis, sehingga dapat menjamin hak hidup dan kesejahteraan warga Papua.
Dari pantauan, demo di depan Kantor Kedubes AS ini diawasi sejumlah petugas kepolisian dari jarak jauh. Sementara itu arus lalu lintas di Jalan Merdeka Selatan masih lancar
