Apa cuman Djoko Susilo anggota DPR seorang doang, yang nyaho kalo urusan 
memperingati relawan2 Aussie yang meninggal (helicopter accident) di Nias  yang 
albeit ngebantu penduduk Indonesia adalah lain acaranya /berbeda dengan ribut2 
perkara visa bagi 42 orang Papua yang lari itu?
   
  Bener2 celaka 13 deh kalo urusan ngebantu dibalas dengan tuba! Kalau memang 
begitu caranya mungkin lain kali apabila ada malapetaka mengunjungi Indonesia 
lagi, aku kira ngak ada yang mau ngebantu. Buat apa repot2 wong achirnya 
bantuan itu dilupakan tanpa ada alasan yang sahih! Bagiku sendiri lain kali aku 
tidak mau donate (melalui Oxfam) lagi, percuma lah. Bukannya minta dihormati 
tapi etika orang ngebantu dan yang dibantu itu pasti ada aturannya. Simple as 
that!

Indons snub service for Australians
By Rob Taylor
March 29, 2006

INDONESIAN officials will not attend a memorial
service for nine Australians killed in last year's
relief helicopter crash on earthquake-hit Nias island 
as anger mounts over the visas granted to West Papuan
separatists.

A senior Indonesian military spokesman said Sunday's
anniversary ceremony might not even take place.
At the same time, demonstrators have daubed 
obscenities on the walls of the Australian embassy in
Jakarta.

About 30 family members from Australia are expected to
join defence personnel and ambassador Bill Farmer for
the service in Tuindrao village. 

A year ago, the tragedy brought the countries together
in grief over the sacrifice paid by the young
Australians helping disaster-hit Indonesians.
But it is a different story in the wake of visas given
to 42 West Papuan asylum seekers. Diplomatic relations
are strained, with Indonesia's ambassador called home
from Canberra amid calls for tougher action against
Australia.

Of the planned service on Sunday, the Indonesian 
defence department's Colonel Wahyu Suhendar said: "We
don't know if we are sending anyone yet."
The deputy spokesman for the military, Colonel Ahmad
Yani Basuki, said the event was under a cloud,
although he refused to say why and whether the
uncertainty was linked to the row over West Papua.
"The event has not been cleared," he said.
Provincial military chiefs said they were unaware it
was taking place, despite the imminent arrival of an 
Australian warship.

Fiery nationalist MP Djoko Susilo, who has lashed out
at Canberra over the Papuans, said anger in Jakarta
should not extend to the Nias service.
"This is a separate case, a humanitarian case," he 
said.
