Julie Wark on #WestPapua
Currently a critical situation in Paniai Region where the #Indonesian military have displaced large numbers of refugees.

"Indigenous peoples have been displaced from more than a million hectares of cleared rainforest to make way for transmigrants. Forest dwellers have been expelled to malaria-infested lower altitudes. Their rights are annulled by law."

Paniai, West Papua: Politics of Displacement - CounterPunch.org

As in Palestine, much of the displacement in West Papua is caused by settlers, but this time funded by the World Bank.
