West Papua Information Kit

Introduction

New Guinea, or Papua is the world's largest tropical island. It is the northern most part of the Australia continent, the Papuan cultures like the indigenous nations of the rest of the Australian continent are the product of tens of thousands of years of history; but the nation of West Papua was born in the national elections of January 1961 and began being tested by outside forces in October of that year. Hundreds of thousands of people have died since 1962 when the UN became a colonial power, please help end this secret colonization.

In 1895 West Papua had been claimed by the Netherlands as a colony, in January 1961 it held national elections forming a New Guinea Council in April 1961. But when in October 1961 the Council heard news that the US wanted the Dutch to trade the people of West Papua to Indonesia to buy the US Indonesian friendship, the Council formerly declared their nation's independence by this manifesto.

The United States wrote a contract of sale known as the New York Agreement and asked other UN members to quietly agree to it in United Nations general assembly resolution 1752 (XVII). Because it was immoral and against established international resolutions to sell human beings, the United Nations has helped obscure the facts ever since. Why did the US oppose freedom and democracy? Out of fear which was fabricated by it's then National Security adviser McGeorge Bundy who was a friend of Robert Lovett who was a director of the Freeport corporation which wanted to mine West Papua of it's gold and copper. After 9/11 and in the "New York Agreement" of 1962 selling the people of West Papua, the US out of fear turned it's back on it's principles. At the request of the United States the United Nations during 1962 in effect decided one class of humans had less human rights.

IF your nation supported UN General Assembly resolution 1752 (XVII) then your nation in effect said the people of West Papuan were not entitled to normal Human Rights including the human rights agreed to in United Nations general assembly resolutions 1514 and 1541.

Please ask your government about it's vote in UN General Assembly resolution 1752 (XVII).

West Papua in English refers to the western half of Papua, but in an apparant attempt to both divide the Papuan people and to confuse the outside world with the names, Indonesia in 2007 imposed political divisions it calls the Province of West Papua (Papua Barat), and the Province of Papua.
