According to a briefing given by the Commander in Chief of the Indonesian Police in Jakarta, the Regional Commander of Police in West Papua gave instruction to the Papua Presidium Council to lower down this symbol of freedom in West Papua since the last 40 years of intimidation, rape, torture, disappearance, and murder. The people have suffered a lot. About 300,000 of Papuans have lost their lives because of Indonesian invasion and occupation since 1963. We will take revenge. It is better kill us all.
Tonight is probably the last night in their life's history for some of the highlanders.
They have dedicated their lives to the independence movement. They are competing to die. They are queing up, wating their turn to die. There is no way, we will all die. To die in wars is worthwile than to die because of sickness.
