Petrol Station blockaded - BP Genocide in West Papua
Manchester EF!/ West Papua Solidarity | 18.12.2002 11:50
Activists today blockaded a BP petrol station in Manchester as an act of solidarity with the people of West Papua.
A war is being waged against the tribal people and forests of West Papua. Land and a whole way of life is going to be lost forever unless we act now.
BP leads the massive Tangguh gas extraction project in a remote region of West Papua. Without BP's huge investment, it wouldn't be profitable for Indonesia to continue its devastating occupation. A huge area of land and seven villages are threatened with deforestation, pollution and repression.
We need to take action in this country to show solidarity with these people.
