Freedom Fighter

This guy is pleading for justice to the unjust way his people are treated in West Papua.

Waving this flag for instance leads to at least 15 years of imprisonment or worse over there!

Their plea:

Stop the "slow motion genocide' in West Papua - put the wrongs right

Over 400,000 Papuans have been killed in silence. On December 1, 1961 Netherlands promised her former colony independence. This promise was reinforced by giving a country flag, "The Morning Star" and the anthem "Hai tanahku Papua. Netherlands left and Indonesia annexed West Papua. In 1969 there would be a fair referendum, so that the Papuans could choose whether they wanted to belong to Indonesia or not. Under heavy intimidation by the Indonesian government a very corrupt referendum took place. Only 1026 carefully selected Papuans were granted voting rights by the Indonesian government , and not the entire population, resulting in the Papuans being forced to accept the connection with Indonesia under pressure.

There's a petition page for Dutch people to sign, they Papuans in exile need 40.000 signatures to get the ministers attention: www.westpapoea.petities.nl
