CONCERNS FOR THE SAFETY OF MINORITIES IN INDONESIA 
As reported in numerous news coverage in the US, Canada, Europe and
Australia, the Rupiah or national currency crisis in Indonesia has led
to widespread attacks on the ethnic Chinese population.
These senseless attacks cause many ethnic and religious minorities to
live in fear. 
Ethnic Chinese suffer the stereotypes of being disproportionally
wealthy. Yet the majority of Chinese Indonesians are tiny
shopkeepers. Some are plain employees, some
are owners of small businesses in manufacturing or services. 
These Chinese Indonesians are too poor to be even able to take out
loans or debts in US dollar. They cannot be held responsible for the
US $ 65 billion debt incurred by the private business sector of
Indonesia. 
And yet some religious leaders and mobs in Indonesia are making them
the target of looting, burning, and other destruction of
their properties, all done in the retaliation for the Rupiah Plunge!
The terror and lawless rioting against these defenseless
minority causes deep international concerns. 
Indonesia has a long history of discrimination against the Indonesian
Chinese: 
-     Use of Chinese written language in public is forbidden, 
-     Teaching of Chinese language is prohibitted. 
-     They are prohibited from entering certain careers such as
politics, or medical specialties. 
-     For most of them the only way to make a living is to go into
small business. 
-     Despite their positive contribution to the Indonesian economy,
the Chinese Indonesians are constantly being singled out   as
scapegoats everytime the country cannot solve a problem. 
This Scapegoating pattern is both repulsive and inhumane! We must ask
the Indonesian Government: 
     To stop the violence by the mobs against Chinese Indonesians and
any non Muslim Indonesians, 
     To use Due Process on those who are accountable for the Rupiah
Plunge. 
     To educate its people on the principles of racial harmony, and on
the complex causes for the Rupiah Plunge. 
     To outlaw any public message of racial or religious intolerance.

P.S.: lo sapete che gli USA per farsi costruire il canale di Panama
aiutarono can armi e mezzi un esercito secessionista affinche insorgesse
contro lo stato panamense il quale, sovrano sulle proprie terre, si era
opposto alla realizzazione del suddetto canale.
Saluto a tutti.

 opposto alla realizzazione del suddetto canale.
Anche io sono coerente, ma odio i portaceneri.

> Anche io sono coerente, ma odio i portaceneri.
Se non fumi e` abbastanza normale.
Si vabbe` ho scritto di una cattiveria degli americani ... ma non ti
preoccupare: non ho paura di ammettere che ci sono pure le cattiverie
dei comunisti. Sono un comunista in rotta di collisione con i comunisti.
non mi venire a raccontare stronzate di 100milioni di morti perche' mi
scoccia il solo pernsare di doverne discutere .... fortunatamente
Martorana e' recentemente scoparso da questo NG e spero solo che questo
post non venga adocchiato da Giordano o da Caudan e simili ...
Ciao Massimiliano ADAMO
