Party hosted a protest outside the Embassy of the Republic
of Indonesia in Wellington. MP Catherine Delahunty led
representatives from the Green Party and Mana Party in
delivering a letter to the Embassy calling for an urgent
peace process between the Indonesian Government and a
movement towards self-determination for the people of West
Papua.
The protesters gave an impassioned call for an
end to colonial domination, comparing the current political
situation to Apartheid South Africa and and the occupied
Palestinian territories.
Catherine Delahunty said that
she would be raising the West Papua issue in Parliament and
urged other groups across New Zealand to lend their support.
She called West Papua an 'inconvenient truth' for Indonesia
and for the New Zealand government.
