Papua as Indonesian political belle 2013

Papua as Indonesian political belle 2013
By Farsijana Adeney - Risakotta

Rarely imagining somebody is called Papua. Sometimes the word, Papua is used as chatter that tends to rebuke discriminatory nature. Hahaha , but it is very salable because MOP Papua Papua uniqueness . MOP Papua is the technical word to refer to funny on how people of Papua express their feeling of happiness (Adeney-Risakotta, 2013). Under pressure because of the injustice that is happening in Papua, Papuans can still be funny.  The way Papuan express their prank, it is MOP Papuans. This is the characteristics of the Papuans.

2013 is critical for Petisi Warganegara NKRI untuk Papua because Papua could be equal in the name of self- Palestinian struggle for justice . To contemplate Christmas I wrote an article comparing the appreciation of the people of Palestine and the people of Papua to continue their struggle to gain the power of Jesus Christ .

The struggle for justice and peace enforcement Papua continues to flow like a river filled with swift weighs volume of rain in a year . The more injustice happening with more and more Papuans Indonesian people called to ask the Indonesian government is responsible for the ongoing violence in Papua .
At the end of the year , which seized the attention of future violence has been decreasing .

 

But the decline of military force does not in itself eliminate fear in the people of Papua . Currently there are about one hundred Papuans who are in prison awaiting trial . While the trial has been set up more than 50 people with legal prisons with 10 to 20 years . This report was compiled by Papua Behind Bars , namely non-governmental organizations of indigenous Papuans who provide monthly reports on arrests and jail of Papuans .

Ending the year 2013 with no enforcement action for justice and peace are the responsibility of the Indonesian government , it is very unfortunate . Papua is Indonesia's current political belle . I call a " primadonna " because of political issues related to justice and peace in the unity of Indonesia that straighten Papuan history that has not been resolved by the Indonesian government .

The death of Nelson Mandela might inspire Indonesian to to revisit her state of moral obligation to establish a Truth and Reconciliation Commission . Although the Truth and Reconciliation Commission has been abolished after the formation of protes from people who ask the Constitutional Court to review, but Papua and Aceh still have legal basis to ask the government to facilitate the establishment of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission .

I have written about Papua since out of the hospital , and I will continue to write until justice and truth upheld in Papua . Today I decided to start painting on Papua . In 2013 , when exhibitions and art blog on Indonesiaku Indonesiamu Indonesia untuk semua at Bentara Budaya Yogyakarta, I created two art works related to Papua that were " Bumi Torang Terbelah" and " Law of the Jungle " .

Today I painted the Papuans whose bodies were chained with white curly hair. The body is red from the cry for the injustice they experienced . Papuans living in the fertile soil surrounded by a sea of blue deep . It used to be the same as the other areas of Papua in Indonesia are isolated, now in Papua , even if there is no smooth road , but all the Papuans know using the internet . Papuans, together with fellow citizens and citizens of other world have been networked  to strengthen the struggle to be heart by the Indonesian government for revealing of justice and peace in Papua .

Petisi Warganegara NKRI untuk Papua is now one and a half year old . In the toddler age , Petisi Warganegara NKRI untuk Papua to continue the spread of education on Papuan issues of conflict resolution and efforts to fellow citizens of Indonesia to walk on justice and peace in Papua. Currently by the end of  2013 , there were 781 people who gave thumbs up as a sign of love and support at the same time struggle to encourage the Indonesian government for justice and peace in Papua .  The people of 781 who are the supporters of the Petisi Warganegara NKRI untuk Papua,  according to statistics from Google consists of as much as 36 % of women and 64% of men who are not directly my friends from Facebook . While the calculations on my network of Facebook is said to support the women and men ranging from 46 % about 54 % . That is among the supporters of the Petisi Warganegara NKRI untuk Papua, about 10 % of men support no direct relationship with the online friendship that actually demonstrate their commitment seriously on issues of justice and peace enforcement in Papua . While approximately 10 % of support among women has a direct relationship with a network of friendship  in Facebook .

Both those who are in a network of friends on Facebook or not , it turns out the proponents of Petisi Warganegara NKRI untuk Papua from Indonesia as many ( 737 persons ) , 12 the United States , Malaysia as many as 7 people , 5 people Netherlands , Germany by 4 people , Singapore by 2 people , 2 people as Canadians , Norway and Japan as much as 1 by 1 person .

Through this article , I would like to thank the supporters of Petisi Warganegara NKRI untuk Papua as I described above . In a separate article I also have to thank Google which has supported the expansion of the peace movement . I would also like to thank to bung  Nano Apituley who together with me also as moderator of Petisi Warganegara NKRI untuk Papua.  Our hope along with you all, learning from this year expriences,  will escort the Indonesian government policy continued to uphold justice and peace in Papua. If it is going to be the homework of Indonesian government, therefore it should be fulfilled it in the next year, 2014.

Happy New Year 2014, the coming years are now in the spirit to continue the journey that had begun to arrive at the planned destination , which is peace for all the children of Indonesia . Stay strong and vibrant in the joy of Papua MOP releases in 2013 and 2014 to continue shipping authority . God along with us all .

2013 is coming to the pick. By turn of the year, when the hours, minutes, and seconds continue moving, I wanted to write this article. In 2013, I celebrated 2 years of my blog titled Indonesiaku Indonesianmu Indonesia untuk semua and a year of  Movement on Petisi Warganegara NKRI untuk Papua ( A Petition of Indonesian Citizens for the justice and peace in Papua). I marked the celebration by having the exebition on Blog and Visual Art on  Indonesiaku Indonesiamu Indonesian untuk semua that was helt at Bentara Budaya Yogyakarta in last May 2013. The idea of doing the show was to share the peace movement and tolerance of nationhood and statehood from the virtual world to the " real time " . Yogyakarta became a real city of peace and justice to spread out the movement to other citizens of Indonesia, and especially to raise awareness about the justice and peace in Papua. At the exibition, there was a day Papuan festival of Peace that brought Papuans around Yogyakarta and Semarang and Indonesian people to celebrate the Papuan culture of peace and had a deep discussion about the solution of Papuan conflict.  Two books were published at the time which were books titled Indonesiaku Indonesiamu Indonesia untuk semua and Petisi Warganegara NKRI untuk Papua. Implementation of the exibition which lasted for ten days in order to celebrate the Reform Movemnt in Indonesia, also conveyed a message of peace from the Palestine, God reconciles in Gaza.

I never realized that  the movement starting from the virtual world back in "real time " to the community in Yogyakarta has been  transmitted to Boston and still is ongoing back to the world now.  

I am after  our car accident, have many opportunities to write about the struggles for justice and peace in Papua to explore the spirit of the peace movement that has been recorded in history together , events and art exhibitions on the blog Indonesiaku Indonesiamu  Indonesia untuk semua. My consciousness became stronger after my eyes revealed that movement is possible because of GOOGLE.

It was so touching. The  day after Christmas, we were still in Berkeley , California , the morning when I wanted to prepare for the most recent posts , I was shocked to read the news about a Christmas gift from Google. I opened the blinking red sign and  and it was very surprised when I clicked it to turn out that Google  made ​​a video with the song for a summary of my activities in 2013. The document has never published as a video. So I wrote the introduction to the video then clicked on the " Share " to be able to spread out worldwide  to Google+ and other networks .  Below are the introduction written in Indonesian and English.

 

 " Good morning, friends around the world. Hope you are all having a good time with your families and networks during this holiday season. Google gives surprise and Christmas gifts to the world. I woke up an was surprised to receive an automatic video seen on google+ on me. Google has deployed a call for peace and justice in the human struggle in the world, as I use the blog and google+ to write my anxiety about violence, war that continues to happen in this world. As an Indonesian,  I am grateful to Google. Christmas gift from Google I want to share with all  those affordable by the virtual world relationship. We all want to live a just, prosperous and peaceful place in the world. I congratulate the Christmas and New Year to all my sisters and brothers, our fellow human beings who live in different parts of the world but connected by Google. Thank you Google!

Selamat pagi, sahabat-sahabat di seluruh dunia. Harap sahabat-sahabat sedang menikmati bersama keluarga dan jejaringnya  selama liburan panjang ini.  Google memberikan kejutan dan hadiah Natal kepada dunia. Saya bangun dan terkejut mendapat video otomatis yang terlihat pada google + saya. Google telah menyebarkan panggilan perdamaian dan keadilan dalam perjuangan manusia di dunia sebagaimana saya gunakan blog dan google + untuk menulis kegelisahan saya tentang kekerasan, perang yang terus terjadi dalam dunia ini. Sebagai seorang Indonesia, saya berterima kasih kepada Google. Hadiah Natal dari Google saya ingin bagikan kepada semua orang yang terjangkau oleh hubungan dunia maya.

Saya mengucapkan selamat Natal dan Tahun Baru untuk semua saudara saya, sesama manusia yang tinggal di belahan dunia berbeda tetapi dihubungkan oleh Google. Terima kasih Google! Salam damai. Silahkan kunjungi blog saya dalam bahasa Inggeris http://www.farsijanaforpizza.blogspot.com atau dalam bahasa Indonesia http://www.farsijanaindonesiauntuksemua.blogspot.com Dapatkan pemberitahuan dari saya melalui Twitter saya <Farsijana Adeney-R@FarsijanaAR>”

Changing world of social movement has occured, performed since Gandhi was in South Africa  where he wrote and publised them on the independent magazines to broaden public awareness about colonialism and liberation from it. Now the same movement can be done more systematically across the nation, states, ethnicities , religions touches the conscience of humankind because of the availability of computer technology and network tremendous in this millennium century. Google has a very large role in the development of a network system that enables peace movements in the entire universe of mutual binding to present a friendly face and love of humankind .

The dark side of humanity that occurred in the real human being with a very easy time corrupting people because the wall is also available in the virtual world .  Computer networks used to spread hatred among human beings, the human ego, focusing on human sexuality, human sexuality as human rights and rob lied to calm themselves. Positive aspects of computer network become very wasteful when suddently in the space of a private display ads that appear forced to see and buy. After the process of my writings to be integrated into the systems  through blogger with google + and other facilitation operated by Google , I feel, not only should be grateful but also panicked because it keeps being chased to ask permission to display photos of the virtual world. The phots that I did not choose availalbe on my  smarthphone as if it is already owned by Google . I remember my friend saying that greatly the development of information technology to  simplify disabled people to drive them to the citizens of the world in the same boat to continue the struggle for their rights , but at the same time making scary. People cringe when privacy rights usurped by the intervention of advanced technology systems that can fit in a person's system and urged that the discovery material to be published .

 My appreciation to Google in driving the social movement through a virtual network, such as Facebook, Google+, Twitter, and other facilities are very large. I almost never imagined before, that within two years, my blog readers of Inodonesiaku Indonesiamu Indonesia untuk semua has reached 31,000 people. People who read the blog according to the statistic provided by blogger come from Indonesia, USA, France, Holland, England, Germany, Rusia, Finland, Australia, Malaysia, Singapore, Japan etc. My blog in English , PIZZA ( Peace Incredible Zoom Zone Authenticity ) that just launched when I arrived last August 2013 in Boston now has reached more than 3000 readers . Bringing PIZZA to Boston is my commitment to continue the peace movement from Yogyakarta to Boston.

Boston as the location was selected as one of 10 best picture in 2013 . Boston as the city to be choosen for the best picture of 2013 in the world not because here  where are all the top universities in the world but due in April 2013 bombing that led to marathon runners and spectators died and were injured. Best photos of Boston this year is the screams of injure due to bomb one experienced by marathon runners. Toward the close of 2013, through virtual media, the news of the bomb in Rusia has spread out very fast all over the world, especially worrying by contingents from various countries who will attend the Olympic in Rusia.

World keeps getting older, but tension of power struggles among her citizens of the world has not stopped. Tensions were exacerbated after the technology was created with the purpose of bringing happiness to humankind becomes a tool for self-destruction. Many analyzes have explained the origin of the tension of the 21st century as part of the heritage of the ancient world. Human power is rooted in the nature of imperialism itself  that still apply in the movement to build peace in this modern age. Imperialism of power struggles among humankind cause scapegoats on religions and their followers to be provoked.  Religious imperialism is actually far from the nature -loving religion of peace and recognizes the equal rights of humankind before God .

Google and a variety of computer netwrk systems will continue to be called to buid commitment to the human world affair, prosperous and peaceful. I am writing this to thank Google for my bloggers into submission tool for peace on earth. Now I am more aware that the exhibitions and art blog for Indonesianku Indonesianmu Indonesia untuk semua also being publicly exhibited around the world as possible by Google.

As a gift for Google, I painted a peace sign that is driven by Google. The letter "G"  of Google I give a smll tree sign, which means that "bertumbuh" in Indonesia or "growth" in English. Google will continue to grow convey peace throughout the world. I gave the title of my   English blog which is an extension of the PIZZA for Peace Incredible Zoom Zone Authenticity  which  is a part of Google products for world peace. In the zone of Google , with the ability to zoom to various events in the world , the peace movement became very original and extraordinary incredible important to continue fighting by all human beings , without distinction of layers of the earth . This virtual zone must reflect on the real time zone.

Happy New Year 2014 with Google, humankind enters the arena of peace from real time to cyber zone o back to real time zone. Peace movement must be rooted in humans,in the community as I do it and then write stories to provide assurance to the world that peace is a blessing of God that is given to all human beings without distinction , the right to be recognized and known in order to strive in the way of peace to pass the beauty of God's way forward in the creation of this world. This is the gift of a trip in 2013 which will be passed in 2014.

A note for 2013, Mama Turtle and Peace

A note of 2013, Mama Turtle and Peace

By Farsijana Adeney-Risakotta


2013 will be soon passed . Change of the year, the earth still rotates . I'm still using a body brace , walking slowly like a mama turtle . Today after almost 2 full months not cooking, I cooked lunches . Usually we eat sandwiches and fruit during the day. But I cooked today because there was a guest,  an Indonesian , a student of ICRS Yogya stopped by to bring some packets to us from our family in Yogya. I cooked brown rice , fish flavored garlic , turmeric , lemongrass and black pepper fried in butter , and baked pear .

Making meals with the techniques was inspired from roasted tomatoes vegetable limey,  cooking cucumber ala the Halmahera, North Molucass, Indonesia,  roasted garlic and onion in the style of Italian and California saute green beans. Roasted pear  came as the idea of the best restaurant in New Haven when I celebrated my husbands birthday with him there. Everything used to make delicious healthy vegetable.  It was Farsijana's meals. I explained when asked about his performance all the bright and unusual.

I cook food with roasting because I like the natural smell of the roasted vegetables . Rice brown medley consists grains  from Trade Joe's production came out very delicious after garnishing with some butter too . We enjoyed lunch.  But I went to rest, leaving talked with our guest, pak Andreas Susanto .

I' ve been thinking about this topic for longer, since I am willing to be called mama turtle. Now I want to write about mama turtle to end 2013. Actually mama turtle started when I was still at Ventura County Medical Center when I was required to use a body brace each time out of bed. Body brace is made of a mixture of plastic , foam rubber and nylon . The texture of the material body brace is slippery, dense , hard and sounds when tapped - tap . Because of its dense , like a turtle shell .

I have used to allow my  spine ( T - 11 ) and ( L - 4 ) to recover .    Two months ago, we had an accident, wrecked cars, nearly on fire but God saved us. I knew since two days after discharge from the hospital , about God's purpose for my writing during recovery , since only the fingers I can with minor typing. I wrote about the plight of my brothers and sisters in Papua. Since then I' ve written 28 articles in Indonesian and 28, the same article translated in English.  Strength I received, like a turtle, is the power of God. I've always loved the turtle, about 13 years ago, after I returned from Bunaken and Lihaga islands in North Sulawesi, Indonesia where my husband and I celebrated the millennium year there. 

 At the time, I was fascinated by the beauty of the turtles in the ocean floor around the islands of Bunaken and Lihaga before we camped on the island to celebrate the turn of the millennium. Bunaken island is a tourist island where people frm all over the world come to enjoy the underwater beauty. Here I also enjoy the elegance of Napoleon fish.

 

After I returned to Yogyakarta, I decided to have two small turtles which I gave the name of Buna and Buni to remind me to Bunaken where I saw a large turtle ont he sea floor when I was snorkeling in the deep sea after the ship released groups of divers . I remember being very scared because there I was no foothold , but I could snorkeling to wait until the ship back to pick us up,  about an hour duration .

Buna and Buni and lived with us a few years in the pond in front of our house in Yogyakarta . the One time we were in the U.S. for a long time, we got the news that two little turtles left the pool when it was full of water during raining.  I am very sad to hear, but not in a hurry to replace Buna and Buni .

I like to watch Buna and Buni cooperate when they take turns going to climb up to sleep over the mangrove wood we put in the pond.

Approximately nearly a year after two small turtles disappeared , I decided to find another two small turtles which are still located in pond at our home . I call their names , Bumi and Buma. I still want names similar to Buni and Buna, so both sets of new turtles that I gave the name of Bumi and Buma. . Bumi in Indonesian means " earth " in the English . Earth in west grove vocabulary associated with feminine traits , therefore, the female tortoise I call Earth . But in my opinion , Bumi or earth must have both components of gender , so I gave the name to the stud turtle  whose body is smaller than  Bumi,  which is the male turtle to be called Buma .

I further  understan the relationship between a turtle that I saw in Bunaken in North Sulawesi, with my little turtle name Bumi or Earth after we were in China . Turtles in my reality actually have a particular cosmic connection .

In Xian, the ancient city of China which was known as the famous  center of silk road trip from  east to west , I was struck by the philosophical lifelike that the earth is actually held by the turtles . Even in, the Great Mosque in Xi'an , there are two turtles that carry the two stone tablets inscribed with China that includes Sahadat .  Islamic understanding in China as seen on mosques , putting a turtle as God's creation first brought creed is a statement of confidence.

In the first stone, Sahadat show the Muslim Creed says , I testify that there is no god but Allah. In the second rock, says I testify that Muhammad is the apostle ( messenger ) of God " .

Two stone carved as two tablets Sahadat reminds me of two stone tablets that Moses was chosen by God to receive the Ten Commandments from God.  The law of God is calld the Law of the Torah in Hebrew. Until now in the Jewish temple, Torah law was issued, and was read to the congregation herded Judaism as it is also acknowledged within Christian tradition as part of the legal details revealed by God to human beings. It declares:
1. You shall have no other gods before me
2. Do not make statues for worship
3. Do not mention the name of the Lord in vain
4. Keep the Sabbath holy
5. Honor your parents
6. Do not kill
7. Do not commit adultery
8. Do not steal
9. Do not lie
10. Do not covet

As a Christian, observing the two tables of stones which brought the turtle , I have reflected two stone tablets of the law of Moses , which makes brings me to the two laws given by Jesus Christ is the Love your  God  with all your heart,  and love your neighbor as yourself .

 I  understand experiences turtle and named it as "Bumi"  (earth) fo my little one turtle before I went  to Xi'an , then strengthens me about the human pilgrimage toward God . One day after I came home from the office and forwarded to the visiting group working at the grass roots , I was very anxious for no reason. Anxiety that prompted me to write a prayer and a post on my blog, so I feel uneasy whenever I will rest in the hands of God. I chose the picture which has two turtles carrying two sacred creed stones for my blog titled "Farsijana's journey to God.

http://farsijanajourneytogod.blogspot.com/2011/04/understanding-myself-bringing-to-go.html

Maybe there will be a lot of confusion as if to put the two stones that contain the Islamic Creed I believe the same meaning as the ummah in general. This answer seems too simple, I am a Christian, who sees the truth in  he expression of Islamic ummah of the Great Mosque in Xian, which reminds me of my own experience as a turtle named " Bumi" and then I understood that there was a view that the turtle holds the earth works. Does naming my little turtle is a coincidence, I do not know, but I admit my understanding of the relationship between "Bumi”, my little turtle with turtles as they did with the Islamic ummah in Xian which saw turtles also recognizes and brings creed on their back ?  In the minds of Muslims Xi'an , changed the role of turtles brought creed because that is the belief that bringing the ummah of Islam saw God the Creator of the earth . Turtles brought creed indicates a transformation in the understanding of the Islamic ummah Creator of the world is God .

Now I appreciate myself as a turtle , I allow myself to call me a mama turtle . Humans need a symbol . The accident we experienced allowed me to use a shield , slow road . New properties that exist on yourself is part of the character on the turtles . This character I 've received for a long time before an accident occurs . I had been prepared to understand the power of good turtle I found in Chinese mythology , and everyday I get along with the turtles in the pond at my house .

Together with the children who come every Saturday at our house to dance , I took them to the turtle conservation . I support the kids and also youth in Yogyakarta who care for the turtles . When we arrived at the Samas beach , the children are given a variety of activities , such as an explanation of their responsibilities in relation to the city of nature conservation , especially the environment which brings water from the river to the beach . Children are advised not to make plastic garbage in the river because it will drift out to sea where it is easily eaten by turtles think plastic like a jellyfish . Then the children under the care of the pool to which the care provided to the child recovery turtle captured members later suffered wounds to be healed . In this treatment pond turtles recovered children until ready to be released back into the sea .

I taught dance of turtles to children in front of the pool because there is a fairly wide sandy courtyard . Children were encourage to care to turtles by creating their movement along to the turtles. I asked the children to imagine the movement of the waves which carry mama turtle from the sea to the beach to look for nesting . Waves rolling slowly passed . Mama turtle crawling avoid the sun to find the location of spawning . We dance and dance has become one of the favored children .

The difference is very pronounced. Now I really feel like a mama turtle. Slow motion past the shock waves as  she continues to move toward the coast looking for a safe place to incubate the eggs into a sign about my current situation.  I have moved  slowly to keep writing because this is a safe way I write with the guidance of the Lord for the suffering of fellow citizens of Indonesia voicing on the violence that occurred in Papua.

I poured my imagination about mama turtle carrying a globe on her back motionless, spreading peace. A happy face is a gift from God that made peace with the responsibility to spread the glorious joy without feeling tired. When mama turtles passes through area, as if the whole universe with beautiful colors and bright welcome her.   Sun and moon company mama turtle. Peace welcomed and accepted as a force within ourselves , because from here , atonement in God can help me to keep writing and moving the voice of justice and the ability to lead to a harmonious life among citizens and nations around the world .
