I looked at the site you provided on West Papua. Very shocking story. The situation of West Papua seems like that of East Timor before it gained independence from Indonesia. However, East Timor has gotten more attention in the West than has West Papua. So it is good that you are raising awareness about the issue. Thank you again, Emilia Dear Andrew,
