[recoznet2] GUNDJEHMI ABORIGINAL CORPORATION UPDATE 8 (7 JULY 1999)
(Forwarded) GUNDJEHMI ABORIGINAL CORPORATION UPDATE 8 (7 JULY 1999) As hot from the press as it gets: MEDIA RELEASE For immediate distribution Wednesday 7 July 1999, 10.30 pm AUSTRALIA RETREATS IN THE FACE OF UN CRITICISM The Australian government today announced to the Bureau of the World Heritage Committee that development of the Jabiluka uranium mine will be suspended until the cessation of mining at Ranger and as late as the year 2009. The announcement came after Australia was strongly criticised by the World Heritage Committee's expert Advisory Bodies over the impact of Jabiluka on the cultural and natural values of Kakadu National Park. The Bureau of the World Heritage Committee decided to form a Working Party to provide recommendations to the special Kakadu Committee Meeting on Monday 12 July. The Extraordinary Meeting will decide whether the extensive array of supposed corrective measures should be accompanied by the inclusion of Kakadu on the list of World Heritage in Danger. Executive Officer of Gundjehmi Aboriginal Corporation, Jacqui Katona, said today, "We welcome the serious concerns expressed by members of the Bureau with regard to cultural values." "These concerns are matched by the Bureau's explicit requirement to avoid cosmetic outcomes and uphold the World Heritage Convention." "The Australian government is yet to provide details on the proposed 10-year delay and we remain concerned that there has yet to be any attempt to discuss the issue with the Mirrar." This issue has not been lost on the Bureau, who repeatedly called on Australia to develop a relationship of trust with Traditional Owners." Comment on the above: There is at this stage no way of assessing whether this is cause for jubilation or not. Until the Mirrar delegation sees the structure and power of the Working Group; until it becomes clearer quite what the intent behind this offer is; until the company and the government sit down with the Mirrar and thrash through all of this, it be viewed as a potential threat. Hope this doesn't seem too distrustful of our elected representatives (what's the digital version of "tongue superglued to cheek"?). FURTHER NEWS I'm uncertain whether this was covered nationally or only in the Northern Territory, but on the ABC News at 7pm in this connection there was also a report that a tour company was reporting that international tourism was dropping off, and this was placed firmly at the feet of the Jabiluka issue.

Re: [recoznet2] THE STOLEN GENERATION
Thanks Judi - Will leave it in your capable hands - ie contacting the BBC etc. All the best Sarah At 06:59 PM 4/7/99 +1000, you wrote: Dear Sarah, I have printed out your request and am contacting a man named Cecil who was one of those who went to Uluru recently for the Joh. He was removed from his home at the age of 4 years old and is a very gentle man. I will try and speak with him over the phone asap. Judi Sarah Peckham wrote: Dear All, Anyone interested in this? It seems a valuable idea to me - but I don't know anyone personally who fits the bill, who I could ask. Email Jenny, for more info - or if you know someone who would be interested in doing it; NB she wants someone sometime in July, so time is tight. Thanks! Sarah From: Jenny Waters [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: THE STOLEN GENERATION Date: Tue, 29 Jun 1999 15:27:19 +0100 Dear Sarah, I am a radio producer with BBC World Service Radio in London. I'm part of a small team making a 'People's History' of the Twentieth Century. Our programmes are very short - just five minutes - but they're being broadcast every day of 1999. Each week has a theme and one of them is about the experience of being an indigenous person since 1900. Already for the week I have interviewed a member of the Sami parliament in Finland, a woman from southern Venezuela from the Karina community talking about dealing with conflict with white farmers and a professional native American story teller on the importance of tradition. Each programme is just one voice - an opportunity for one person to tell their story. I was wanting to contact someone in Australia who could give a first hand account of the experience of being a member of the 'Stolen Generation'. I would arrange for a freelance radio journalist in Australia to do the interview. Would you be able to help me get in touch with anyone? I would like to arrange the interview for some time in July. With thanks Jenny Waters. --- RecOzNet2 has a page @ http://www.green.net.au/recoznet2 and is archived at http://www.mail-archive.com/ To unsubscribe from this list, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED], and in the body of the message, include the words:unsubscribe announce or click here mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Body=unsubscribe%20announce This posting is provided to the individual members of this group without permission from the copyright owner for purposes of criticism, comment, scholarship and research under the "fair use" provisions of the Federal copyright laws and it may not be distributed further without permission of the copyright owner, except for "fair use."

[recoznet2] TO ALL LIST MEMBERS!
Now that I have your attention.please delete any notices from egroups! DO NOT ANSWER the messages - just delete them. I have been in touch with the owner of radical science and apparently someone signed us up for a second time on Wednesday. He has set all subscriptions for approval now so it can't happen again and, with any luck, he will find out who it is.
