On December 1, 1961, the Dutch flag that had flown over the peninsula of West Papua for more than 130 years was replaced by the “Morning Star” flag.  This signified an important transition for West Papua – away from colonialism, to a new start as a free nation.
By the end of the decade, Indonesia had forcefully annexed West Papua (also known as West Irian at the time) with tacit support from the United States. But 50 years later – an anniversary that was marked this week – National Flag Day was remembered by the West Papua independence movement. Resistance leaders and human rights advocates recalled the brutal military takeover of the country by Suharto’s Indonesia, as well as the hope that the “Morning Star” flag still epitomizes today.
