Re An urgent Appeal “Fear of Safety”

The information we have reached us unsuspected recently that, the Government of PNG
and Indonesia collaboration in secret plan arrangement to deport us (147) Displaced West Papuan Refugees back to Indonesia. We are currently living under bad conditions, situations and are facing life miserably for the past year, since eviction took place on 24th September 2007. And within that year, we have become victims of Five (5) evictions ever in our lives. Now we have built tents in the rain water drain and are sleeping on the soil with pieces of card board at Rainbow Estate, Meltrust Inc. 9NGO) residential area.

At the same time, UNHCR Regional Representative in Canberra, Mr Richard Towel made
his clear comment through ABC Radio during an interview with Steve Marshall on the
3rd October 2008. In his interview , he rejected our request to resettle in a third
country because of his involvement in the same secret arrangement plan
collaboration. For so long , there is a secret silent war by UNHCR Act towards Black
Refugees of West Papua in PNG and especially us today , whom have become victims of
landless and stateless people.

The above mentioned subject , could you please kindly contact the pressure groups
like International Communities , Humanitarian Organisationa and other international
Organisations Agencies around the world and persuade them to give pressure to both
the UNHCR in Canberra and Port Moresby to do possible things to protect the
suffering of women, children and men of this group to be resettled to a third
country according to the International Guide line of Refugee Procedure. And also
contact the Amnesty International to visit our camp at Meltrust Inc. (NGO), Rainbow
Estate , Gerehu, Port Moresby, and PNG or if possible they could give us Amnesty
Card to protect us from being deported.

And the other request is for legal assistance . If you can find someone to protect
us and then, they can give pressure to UNHCR Canberra and Port Moresby to do the
right thing to resettle us to third country according to the international Law of
Procedures of the 1951 Convention and its 1967 Protocol relating to the statuis of
refugees. So UNHCR cannot tell lies or deny its own obligations to protect the
rights of refugees as Humasn Beings . We are victims of five (5) times evictions ,
stateless and landless people in the pass year and these is an ill-treatment act by
UNHCR and the Government of PNG.

Lastly, for your information that our cases of filling the Family Registration Forms
to be included in the International Quote Program given by UNHCR , Port Moresby.

Thank you for your co-operation , I greatly appreciated.
