Acts of terror leave bloody trail in Papua

22nd September 2020

Hence, it is untrue that Priest Yeremia Zanambani, found dead in Hitadipa village, was gunned down by security personnel
September has been the bloodiest month in Intan Jaya district, Papua province, this year with armed separatists mounting a spate of attacks which have left two soldiers and two civilians dead and two others injured.



On September 19, 2020, an Indonesian soldier died in a gunfight with several armed Papuan rebels near the Persiapan Hipadipa Military Sub-district Command's compound in the district.



The fallen hero has been identified as First Private Dwi Akbar Utomo, according to XVII Cenderawasih Regional Military Command spokesperson, Lt. Col. Reza Nur Patria.



The same day, armed separatists also reportedly gunned down Priest Yeremia Zanambani in Hitadipa village, Hitadipa sub-district.





The priest died of gunshot wounds after he was shot by armed criminals on September 19, 2020, Joint Regional Defense Command (Kogabwilhan) III spokesperson, Col. IGN Suriastawa, noted in a recent statement.



On September 17, 2020, another soldier, Chief Sergeant Sahlan, was reportedly killed in an ambush laid by a group of armed separatists. He was returning to the Persiapan Hipadipa Military Sub-district Command in Intan Jaya district with food supplies from the Sugapa area when he was attacked.



The attackers seized his gun and magazine, according to Commander of the Biak-based 173/Praja Vira Braja Military Resort Command, Brig. Gen. Iwan Setiawan.



Sahlan, a member of the 1404 Pindrang Military District Command in South Sulawesi province, had been tasked with backing up the Village Supervisory Non-Commissioned Officers (Babinsa) of the Persiapan Hipadipa Military Sub-district Command, Setiawan noted.



In a separate incident on September 17, 2020, armed Papuan rebels reportedly tortured and killed a 49-year-old motorcycle taxi Ojek driver identified as Badawi.



On September 13, 2020, armed separatists opened fire at two other Ojek drivers in Sugapa area, but they managed to survive the attack. The two drivers are currently undergoing treatment in Timika, the capital of Mimika District, Setiawan stated.



Meanwhile, the Indonesian Communion of Churches (PGI) has condemned the recent shooting of Priest Yeremia Zanamban in the province, where the security situation has remained volatile owing to its vulnerability to acts of deadly violence by armed separatists and their backers.



Local media reported that the PGI has sent letters to President Joko Widodo as well as the Indonesian Military (TNI) commander and the National Police chief, demanding a thorough investigation into the incident.



The PGI has also appealed to the government to set up an independent fact-finding team to probe the shooting.



Sugapa police chief, Second Inspector Engel Mayor, had met with Priest Timotius Miagoni from the Indonesian Evangelical Christian Church (GKII) to discuss information on Zanambani's death circulated on social media platforms.



Priest Miagoni was quoted by Papua Police spokesperson, Sen. Coms. Ahmad Kamal, as saying that he had received a phone call from a family member of Priest Zanambani informing him that Zanambani had been shot dead while feeding his swine at the pen.



"That is what I heard because I have yet to visit the village, so I am not able to speak further," Priest Miagoni was quoted by Kamal as saying.



Papua police later informed that a notorious criminal group, led by Jelek Waker, may have masterminded the shooting of Priest Zanambani.



The armed group may have also plotted a string of shootings and attacks on army personnel and civilians over the past few days, Kamal told journalists on Monday.



The Waker-led armed gang members had attempted to lure military and police personnel into the area, but only some army personnel were, in fact, present at the Persiapan Hipadipa Military Sub-district Command, he noted.



“Hence, it is untrue that Priest Yeremia Zanambani, found dead in Hitadipa village, was gunned down by security personnel,” Kamal remarked, adding that the police will examine the site of the shooting as part of its investigation into the case.



Joint Regional Defense Command (Kogabwilhan) III spokesperson, Col. IGN Suriastawa, had earlier denied allegations circulated by armed criminal groups and their supporters on social media platforms that the priest had been shot by TNI personnel, stating that on the contrary, armed Papuan criminals had shot him.



The spokesperson contended that armed groups and their loyalists had intentionally distorted the fact to corner the TNI and the Indonesian government in efforts to attract public attention ahead of the UN General Assembly in New York.



The general debate of the UN General Assembly's 75th session is scheduled to take place from September 22 to September 29, 2020, during which, a number of speakers will present their views and perspectives on relevant issues.



According to the United Nations' official website, at the opening of the general debate, the UN Secretary-General António Guterres will introduce the annual report on the activities of the organization.



At the high-level meeting, the UN member states will formally adopt a declaration on the commemoration of the United Nations' 75th anniversary. The UN75 Report summarizing the findings of the global dialogues will also be shared.



Over the past few years, the UN General Assembly has often been considered a platform by several people who want Papua to secede from the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia to launch their campaigns for cornering Indonesia.



However, they intentionally ignore the killing spree the armed Papuan criminals carry out against innocent civilians, like the one witnessed in Intan Jaya district, Papua province, this September. (INE)

Btw why separatist always targeting ojek driver?

Do they realize how expensive japanese weaponry are??
That soryu, newly build or second ?

Yes, they do because soryu only cost hardly around US$ 500 million same as Scorpene AM2000 spec, what make it look expensive? Because Soryu variant that they offer to Australia is extended variant one, it means research development needed for that submarine and that makes it prices go way higher than it supposed to be. And because of Australia submarine tender where soryu became so expensive, it creates weird stigma where people say "Soryu is expensive AF we can't buy it".

Great
But I don't won't get my hope up for those.

Me too! I'm looking forward for trieste instead

Indonesia rejects Chinese request for military base
Indonesia says it will never sign military agreement with any nation

TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — Indonesian Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto told his Chinese counterpart, Wei Fenghe (魏鳳和), that his country would not accept a request for a Chinese military base in the country, reports said Friday (Sept. 11).

The conversation occurred during a meeting between the two top defense officials in Jakarta on Sept. 8, according to a report by Indonesian publication Kompas. Indonesia occupies a strategic location on the southern edge of the South China Sea and on the main sea route between China and the Indian Ocean, the Middle East, Europe and Africa.

Subianto also excluded the possibility that Indonesia would sign military accords with any other country, a military spokesman said. China would never be allowed to set up a base on Indonesian soil, as the government conducted an active foreign policy based on national freedom, a military spokesman said.

According to a U.S. report about China’s military published Sept. 1, Beijing was looking to expand its reach overseas by opening more bases. Djibouti in the Horn of Africa is one mooted location, but China is considering several other countries, from Sri Lanka and Myanmar, all the way to the Seychelles off the coast of East Africa, CNA reported.

And you think ?? Just look at the map and see on how much they get covered/clossed off in their naval movement space . They need a naval base in the equatorial area anywhere as long as equatorial . Yet , east timor would only plunge their forces right into the trap they simply could never get out at all ...
Yet , the leaked news that was intrigues me . Who's leaking it and on what purposes ??

When Chinese officer left Indonesia after met with Prabowo, suddenly their Coast Guard intruding our Naval boundaries zone. Quite interesting to see such abrupt development, it is quite possible to see they don't met their expectation result of the meeting.

And not long after, Luhut givin'hints about US should take Indonesia seriously and giving access to their most advance Fighter and compared to Singapore.

Why China, Once Coy, Suddenly Wants to Discuss a Code of Conduct for a Disputed Sea
“The reason that I think the Chinese first agreed to the code of conduct was to block out the Americans, that the Chinese could say ‘we already established a track toward addressing the issues in the South China Sea, so the South China Sea is peaceful, and it is stable, so to the Americans, do not meddle,’” said Yun Sun, East Asia Program senior associate at the Stimson Center think tank in Washington.

They start to feel the pressure.

How can the US trust and take indonesia seriously when the same man who demand access for advance fighter to the US, protect and back China interest and business in Indonesia. Just look how he defend China company in Morowali even when they blatantly break the law. Remember when Former Minister Susy captured China illegal fishing ship in Maluku and then Luhut took over the case and freed those ship? Yeah, I wouldn't trust him if I were the US.

Keep in mind, before visiting Indonesia his also visited Philippines. One can easily deduce it was for the same agenda, Furthermore also note what was spoken by both Duterte and Jokowi in UN few days ago addressing similar topic

And you think ?? Just look at the map and see on how much they get covered/clossed off in their naval movement space . They need a naval base in the equatorial area anywhere as long as equatorial . Yet , east timor would only plunge their forces right into the trap they simply could never get out at all ...

Equatorial has nothing to do with it. Its Indonesia position geographically particularly Indonesia SLOC (Sea Lane of Communication). Indonesia literally control the world most strategic maritime choke points (Strait of Malacca & Lombok Strait)

How can the US trust and take indonesia seriously when the same man who demand access for advance fighter to the US, protect and back China interest and business in Indonesia. Just look how he defend China company in Morowali even when they blatantly break the law. Remember when Former Minister Susy captured China illegal fishing ship in Maluku and then Luhut took over the case and freed those ship? Yeah, I wouldn't trust him if I were the US.

It has nothing to do with El Bepe. The US and all others Anglosphere world just unable "to read" our top politician motives & intentions due to the cultural & linguistic barrier. The only western nation who know "how to read" our cultural & lingusitic practice is the Nederland.
