History of Greed
Blood was shed again in Papua, when student rioters beat three policemen and one army person on Thursday, March 16, 2006. There might be political objectives behind the riotings. But, here, I just want to mention the injustices that I felt when I visited Timika early this year.
PT Freeport Indonesia operates one of the largest or may be the largest gold mine in the world, and yet the Papuans are poor. Some of them are even starving to death.
