West Papua Student Solidarity Pledge


4 December 2000

Following the agreement of the second National Congress of West Papua on May 29-June 4, 2000 that on the December 1 2000 West Papua will formally separate from the Republic of Indonesia;

And because December 1 has not brought this result;

And because the Presidium of the Congress no longer has the trust of the people:

The students, as the barometer of the West Papuan independence movement, have closed the campus of Cendrawasih University and pledge themselves:

- to support the independence aspirations of the West Papuan people on the national and international level;

- to accommodate and harmonize the aspirations of all West Papuans

- to collect all ideas from our people and from the Indonesian government that accord with Papuan aspirations

- to bring together with the West Papuan people all the leaders of educational institutions in West Papua to look for the best solution to our problems

- In sum, to gather all components of the West Papuan independence movement in order to find the best way forward to realize West Papuan aspirations for full independence

Signed by the collected West Papuan students at Cendrawasih University
