Sungguh mengkhawatirkan sikap rasis yg ditunjukkan dlm pernyataan para
penganut separatis Papua thd warga non Papua.
Indonesia sbg negara dibangun dg semangat persatuan seluruh penduduk Hindia
Belanda, yg terdiri dari berbagai suku bangsa dari Sabang sampai Merauke dlm
perjuangan panjang penuh pengorbanan melawan penjajahan kolonial Belanda demi
tegaknya Kedaulatan nasional dlm wadah negara berbentuk Republik yg menganut
paham Demokrasi, yg menghormati hak asasi demokratis warga bukan hanya dibidang
politik (Pasal 28 Konstitusi RI), tetapi juga hak asasi demokratis warga
dibidang ekonomi (Pasal 33 Konstitusi RI).
Tanpa adanya persatuan yg kokoh seluruh warga negara atas dasar patriotisme yg
berkeadilan dan bermartabat akan sulit mencapai cita-cita terbentuknya
masyarakat yg adil dan makmur.

Racism and Separatism in Papua (1)
The racist slurs ofcertain groups and membersof the security forcesagainst
Papuan students, which took place on August 16, 2019, in Surabaya, havesparked
extreme anger andviolent protests from thePapuan and other ethnic communities
in Indonesia. Racism and discriminationcannot be tolerated. It must be
condemned and opposed. We have to support themanifestations organized by
various mass organizations and institutions toprotest and demand that
theresponsible for that racist actions bethoroughly investigatedand punished
accordingly.
Racism anddiscrimination are an inseparable part of the economic, political and
socialsystem that exists in Indonesia. It is a legacy left by Dutch
colonialism. At that time, thenative people were the loweststratum of society..
Chinese, Arabs,Indians and other foreigners belongto the second category...
Included inthe first category were the Dutch and other whites.
The categorization ofthe population based on race is the Dutch policy to divide
and to play one off against the others for their economic and political
interests. The Chineseare used by the Dutch as intermediaries in trade and
agents in collecting taxeson the population. This position brought prosperity
to a small number ofChinese citizens who were finally considered by the VOC to
be their rivals,when the latter had declined.
That was one of thefactors that led to the massacre of ethnic Chinese in 1740.
10,000 Chinese werekilled.
Furthermore, to beable to control the activities of the Chinese, the VOC issued
passenstelselwhich required Chinese citizens to have a special travel permit to
traveloutside the district where they lived. Wijkenstelsel was issued torequire
the Chinese to live together in one village. From there came the term “pecinan"
(Chinatown).
The gap andthe role asagents of the colonial andfeudal class in collecting
taxes has led to anti-Chinese sentimentsamong the population. This has
triggered riots in various cities in Java, suchas Solo in 1912, Kudus in 1918
and also the massacre of Chinese citizens byRaden Ayu Yudakusuma in Ngawi in
1925.
During Sukarno government, onMay 10, 1963, there were anti-Chinese riots.
First in Bandung, then itspread to other cities. Therehave been allegations of
USimperialist involvement inthose riots through theiranti-communist accomplices
aiming at destabilizing the Government because of its close relation with the
CommunistParty of Indonesia and the People’s Republic of China. Bung Karno
acted decisively by punishing those involved in those racial actions against
Chinese citizens.
General Suharto, who was inpower from 1965to 1998, was thebest heir to Dutch
colonial action against communists who were exiled andostracized indefinitely
in the Boven Digul concentration camp. It happenedafter the First National
InsurrectionAgainst the Colonial Authorities eruptedin 1926. The smilingGeneral
also inherited Dutchcruel policies towards Indonesian Chinese..
The biggest and heinous crime against humanity was committed bySuharto with the
massacre of approximately 3 million (the numberrecognized by General Sarwo Edi)
of communists, workers,peasants, youth, women, intellectuals and Bung Karno's
followers from variousethnic and religious groups and ethnic Chinese.
Besides communists and progressive leftists supportersof Bung Karno's policies
against neo-colonialism and imperialism , in terms of ethnicity, Chinese
Indonesians were specifically targeted by Suharto’s regime. In addition tothose
who had been victims of masskilling, imprisonment andenforced disappearances
during the 65-66 period, ethnic Chinese in WestKalimantan were slaughtered in
the context of the extermination of the PGRS (People’sGuerrilla Forces of
Serawak) / PARAKU (North Kalimantan People's Party) in1967.
In that genocideagainst ethnic Chinese, 27,000 people were killed, 101,700
peoplewere displaced in Pontianak and 43,425 of them were relocated in
PontianakRegency. (Tanjungpura Berdjuang, 1977).
Suharto furtherenhanced and fostered anti-Chinese sentiments through the
Circular LetterNumber 06 of 1967 issued by Ampera Cabinet Presidium which
formalized and standardized the word “cina” as the term of address to
IndonesianChinese. It is a term withderogatory connotation.It means that they
were intentionallyseparated from other Indonesians.
Then, savageatrocities against IndonesianChinese occurred again in May 1998.
Looting, killing,arson, plunder and raping were committed bythe New Order
regime whichwas being hit by the 1998 economic crisis and overwhelm-ed by
waves of demonstrations launched by students and othersectors of the population
who were fed up with the corrupted government. In Jakartaalone, 1188 were
officially recognized as having lost their lives.
Facts on discriminationand racism againstethnic Chinese since the Dutchcolonial
era till the Sukarno government and the New Order regime of Suhartoneed to be
presented inorder to remind the Papuanbrothers and sisters as well asthe
younggenerations that discrimination and racism are not new in Indonesia. The
discrimination and racismagainst the Papuan people are not caused by the fact
that Papua is part of theterritory of Indonesia. Thus, its solution cannot be
the separation of Papua.The existing economic, political and social system
which serves the interestsof the big landlords, big bureaucratic and comprador
capitalists andimperialism gives rise to discrimination and racism. Only by
changing radicallythat system can we eradicate them.
Without theslightest wish to minimize the deep resentment and sufferingsof the
Papuan sisters and brothers,I only try to show and prove that they arenot
"alone" facing discriminatoryand racial crime. Discrimination and racism
suffered by the Papuanscannot be compared to what has been experienced by
theIndonesian Chinese. And remember,actually there are many other ethnic groups
and sectors ofthe population who have beentreated arbitrarily and violentlyby
the governmentand its military and paramilitary apparatus. For example, women,
LGBT, followers ofnon-Islamic beliefs, adherents of Islam’s sectsthat are not
recognized by the majority, victims of the 1965-66 massacre,their families and
offspring, victims of killings such as the case ofMarsinah (a worker) , the
case of Udin (journalist) , the case of Salim kancil ( environment activist) ,
the case ofTanjung Priok, Trisakti, Munir, the abduction ofactivists in 1998.,
etc.
Gross humanrights violations in Papua make the list even longer. I can
ironica-llysay that the Papuan sisters and brothers do not have "the
privilege"for discriminatory and racist treatment. The Indonesian working
class, independent-ly oftheir ethnicity and religion have been suffering
decades of exploitation andrepression; their economic and democratic rights
being trampled by thegovern-ment who serves the interests of the big landlord,
big bureaucratic andcomprador bourgeoisie and imperialism.
Not a single one of the responsible and perpetrators of the gross violations of
human rights and thegenocide of 1965-66 was investigated and brought to
justice.The name of the presidentscan be different, but the structure of the
economic and political system doesnot change. General Wiranto and Kivlan Zein
challenged each other to revealthe mastermind of the May 1998 incident, but
alllegal institutions wereindifferent and nothinghappened. Impunity goes on.
People’s reaction to injustices,abuses, violences by the stateapparatus,
discrimination and racism is not the same. The Papuan separatists and their
national and international supporters have been using theincident in Surabaya
to hold various kinds of demonstrations demanding Papuanindependence.
Discriminationand racism among the leaders of Papuan Separatism
In aconversation with Jawa Pos, on 6 December 2018, Sebby Sambom, spokesmanfor
the West Papua National Liberation Army-Free Papua Organization(TPNPB-OPM),
blatantly stated: "Our attack continues until a totalrevolution. At present the
revolution is still in the stages of small attacksto certain points. "When we
reach other stage of the revolution , we willexpel all non-Papuans from this
country."
One of thepoints in the statement of Goliath Tabuni who claimed himselfto be
the General and National Command of the West Papua National LiberationArmy
(TPNPB), reads as follows: "TPNPB and the people of West Papuafully support
ULMWP to become full members of the MSG, at the MSG Summit on21-22 December
2016 in Vanuatu, on the grounds that the Papuans are not Malay,we are a
Melanesian race ”(Gatra, 1/8/2017).
An ultimatumof Purom Wenda from TPNPB, was placed in MAJALAH-WEKO WAMENA , 3
September 2019, demanding the migrantsto return to their villages or their
respective regions within one month. Hethreatened "If my appeal is not
listened, we will shoot them, no matterwhether he is a civilian businessman or
a civil servant. Motorcycle taxidrivers will also be shot ". In addition, he
also requested thatall Papuan students throughout Indonesia immediately return
to Papua.
In atelephone conversation with Suara.com, September 2, 2019, Benny Wen da,
Chairof the "United Liberation Movement for West Papua" (ULMWP), stated,on the
one hand, strongly condemned racial discrimination including against
theIndonesian people, but on the other, stressed that racially,
geographically,culturally, linguistically, we Papuans are different from
Indonesians.
All thedifferences he expressed above cannot be used as justification to demand
areferendum and independence for Papua. The Mollucans and the people in
EastNusa Tenggara are also Melanesians. Everybody knows that Indonesian
peopleconsist of Malayan and Melanesian races.
What didBenny Wenda mean by saying geographically, the Papuan people are
different fromthe Indonesian people? The territory of Indonesia consists of
thousands ofislands, including the islands of West Papua! Java Island is
separated fromSulawesi Island, separated from the Maluku Islands, and all the
other islands.....
Who does notknow of the diversity of cultures and languages of so many ethnic
groupsliving in the Indonesian archipelago? Javanese culture and language are
clearlydifferent from Dayaks, Bugis, Bataks and so on. Is that difference a
reason toseparate from Indonesia and form a Dayak Republic, a Bugis Republic, a
BatakRepublic???
It isprecisely the fact that there is a diversity of cultures and languages
from morethan thousand tribes and ethnic communities living in the
archipelago, thatthere has been a nation building since the first national
uprising against theDutch colonialism led by the Communist Party of Indonesia
in 1926. Followedlater by the Youth Oath at the Second Congress of Youth, 1928,
which declaredOne Motherland, One Nation and One Language. The Indonesian
nation was born ina long historical process of struggle against Dutch
colonialism. Theindependence of the Indonesian people was paid for by millions
of lives,sufferings and extraordinary sacrifice of the people of various ethnic
groupsin the archipelago. It is absolutely not a gift of the Dutch Colonial
Government.
