Indonesia to send 650 extra troops to Papua New Guinea border
Indonesian Military
Commander of the 650 troops with his soldiers
The Indonesian government has announced today
that it will ship 650 extra soldiers to West Papua from Indonesia and directly
to the Papua New Guinea border from February onward, equipped with photos of
West Papuan activists and freedom fighters.
The soldiers will be shipped from Kalimantan
in Indonesian Borneo and will be from the 600/Raider Infantry
Battalion/623/BWU.
The Threats
This poses a direct threat not just to West Papuans living inside of West Papua
but also to refugees living across the border and Papua New Guineans too.
Let us not forget that in 2008 the Indonesian
military briefly invaded Papua New Guinea and attacked refugees and Papua New
Guineans living nearby.
We must not let Indonesia use our Island of
New Guinea as its own military backyard.
Please share this crucial news so that the
world knows about the ever more dangerous situation in New Guinea.
Please help before it is too late. Take
action here to help the
people of West Papua.
Thank you
