Dear Siswanto Siswo
Yes, friendships will be strained. That is sad. I am not asking for action
against individual Indonesians in Australia or economic sanctions. What I
want is for you guys to tell your mates in Jakarta that Australia and the
rest of the world won't approve of the tactics of the past to reinforce
Indonesian control in East Timor. And that Indonesians will have the shame
of the East Timor oppression on their shoulders for generations to come.
You haven't forgotten the poor performance by Portugal in 1975. How long
will it take the world to forget Indonesia's performance in East Timor
today. At least, 25 years? Much, much more.
