On this day, as a Church we express our anxiety over the substance or essence of the Independence celebrations held by the Government in Papua, which is apparently the same from year to year only; held on a large scale but continues to show and hide the face of state violence in Papua . http://majalahselangkah.com/content/ini-pernyataan-forum-kerja-oikumenis-gereja-gereja-papua-pada-hut-ri-2013
Check out this year's celebration of independence day with various forms of violence as follows.
A. Denial of rights of expression of civil society that continues to date August 15, 2013 yesterday.
Among them:
26 April 2013 KNPB planning a peaceful protest against integration of Papua into the Republic of Indonesia on May 1, 2013 in the form of the action of grief on Tomb Field Theys Sentani, but there are restrictions on the Commander. KNPB insist on action and the Papua Police still threatened to forcibly disperse when KNPB held a peaceful protest.
May 1, 2013 the Governor of Papua, Papua Police Commander and the crowd rushed for the people of Papua issued a ban for not doing Celebration May 1 in protest and rejection of the annexation of Papua into the Republic of Indonesia; once threatened to forcibly disperse the mob who intend celebrating the annexation of Papua in the Tomb Theys Hiyo Eluay.

The demo was held university students in Jayapura in support of West Papua to be accepted as a member of MSG. This demo was held the students who join the BEMF and DPMF.
B. Omission or denial of the rights of life that causes so many people died; seen in the following incident.
9 April 2013 61 people are reported to have been killed in the District Somagaik, Yahukimo since mid-January 2013 due to starvation and lack of access to healthcare.
29 April 2013 A total of 535 people attacked Tambrauw District residents disease, malnutrition, and 95 people are reported to have died due to starvation.

August 8, 2013 Irwan Yanengga 19 years in shooting death by police of a Member Jayawijaya
C. Against Arbitrary killing of civilians and the way that is incompatible Handling Law
Arbitrary killings of civilians and how to handle the cases that occur are not appropriate Law.
For example: Arlince Tabuni, 12 years old was shot dead by members of Kopassus in Lany Jaya on July 1, 2013, Irwan Yanengga and Arton Kogoya each occurred in Jayawijaya and Lany Jaya during July and August where the local government is charged to pay a sum of money in exchange damages to the families of the victims.
D. Local government actions to curb freedom of expression by restricting the provision of scholarships to students involved peaceful demonstration, as the vice-regent of Jayapura District statement on May 24, 2013.
Observing this situation, we consider that such independence celebrations (massive celebration without a government-sponsored or while displaying / hiding the face of violence) shows the Indonesian government was in crisis in three ways:
First, this is a sign that the government failed to establish the nation of Papua. If the government is successful then this Independence Day celebrations will not be marred by demonstrations demanding dialogue, or the Papuan independence rally supporting MSG visit to Papua and Indonesia. It's our opinion that the government failed to build Papua.
Secondly, according to the celebration of our independence this style indicates that the government has lost the confidence of his people. In the language of the Bible governmental Independence Day celebrations as well as the empty tomb on the outside but on the inside the paint neatly filled with bone.
Third, we assess the celebration accompanied by repression and denial of the right to life, socio-economic rights of the Papuan people, the government is to avoid or hide the roots up the issue: the distortion of history and the demands of the people of Papua to
DIALOGUE
Therefore, through this opportunity, we urge the Government of Indonesia:
a) Stop all forms of violence and oppression in Papua;
b) In order to open up Papua to resolve the issue in a democratic and dignified dialogue with the Papuan people that is mediated by a neutral international parties.
c) Related to this dialogue, we ask Juha Christensen of pacta, ever mediate conflict dialog ACEH / GAM and Indonesia to mediate in the dialogue between Papua and Indonesia.
