More about the book
The plight of West Papua under Indonesian rule is vividly depicted, highlighting the brutal repression faced by independence advocates. Martinkus recounts the assassination of leader Theys Eluay and the ongoing violence against those who display the Morning Star flag. He connects the wealth generated by the Freeport mine to systemic oppression and examines the influence of Laskar Jihad, Islamic extremists exacerbating the situation. This compelling reportage draws parallels to East Timor, emphasizing global indifference from entities like the United Nations and the Australian government.
