I am third generation mix-Indonesian. After Indonesian independence, my grandparents had to move from Bandung (Java) to Manokwari (Dutch Papua New Guinea). When they arrived in Papua there was nothing, the Dutch government still had to build houses for the Dutch-Indonesian community. My grandmother told a story about when Papuans with spears were watching in the bushes. My father then still a child quickly ran inside with his brothers and sisters.

My grandmother was not afraid and ran outside and walked to the papuas in the bushes. The first thing my grandmother asked, teach me to find food in the jungle because there are no shops here. The Papuans led my grandmother and other mothers through the jungle and pointed out what was and what was not to eat. So my grandmother cooked with ingredients from the jungle, in return my grandmother made clothes for them and they became good friends.

My father told me how he had to leave New Guinea for the Netherlands. They had just boarded the ship, and not a moment later dozens of boats with Javanese moored on the coast. The Papaus waved goodbye to my family and went back to the jungle.

Nice of you to cover this relatively obscure subject. New Guinea is usually only known for the brutal, grinding and malaria infested campaign of WW2.

Fun facts: After the Dutch administration ended, the region changed its name to West Irian. Irian stands for Ikut Republik Indonesia Anti-Netherland (in bahasa) or Join the Republic of Indonesia Anti-Netherland. - Frans Kaisepo (Papuan politician & Indonesian nationalist)

Most insightful coverage of an issue that isn't spoken about very much.

I like how the dutch swithed from "this colony land belong to us and us only" to play moral highground of free choice in few years.

As a young engineer in the US Merchant Marine, I first set foot in Indonesia in 1975. It was easy to see the country was under the rule of a dictator and I needed to watch my step.

Soekarno is that really ambitious guy who switched from one side to another just to get what he wanted. First he sided with the Japanese during pre-independence, then the US during the independence war, then USSR during Papua, and lastly China during Konfrontasi. In the end though, he couldn't get Malaya and also lost everything to Soeharto, but still, he had amassed a lot of territories which would later became what it is now of the Republic.
I may be the minority here but i have a high respect for him for having high ambitions along with the skills and charisma to back them.

Since your piece documentary is on cold war, between US vs. USSR. You have missed the important part of the event. Who won and benefited from it? On your closing, you summarized that Indonesia was the winner and later on became the villain. Indonesia was just another victim of the cold war. It’s clear that the US won the stand off and had the most gained from the situation. They managed to run off the communist influence and had placed Freeport to suck out all the Gold and Copper in the following 50 years after. Not to mentioned in that 50 years, they turn blind eye on the mistreatments and failed to educate and improve the lives of the locals. Despite the immense wealth they have taken from their land/earth.

Indonesian first goal isn't an economic one, Papua was instead important because they attend the youth pledge(basically a unity pledge for an independent Indonesia) so it must be incorporated for it simbolysm + Papuans integration would be a win for the secularist

because Papuans as you know are not Muslims and at that time when political islam we're a significant enough force(with US help ofc) that no new constitution can be approved without it being a sharia compliant one... Every support count

A classic case of international bullying winning the day.
The same thing has repeated quite a few times since.

the copper has been discovered since 1939 by dutch geologist, this is the main fuel of the dispute. One of the largest copper and gold deposit on earth with abundance of water for mining activity.

Again a complicated topic delivered with enough context and nuances for the general audiences. Kudos
Just a couple of notes:
5:03 it wasn't that straightforward. Hatta, for example, didn't agree with Soekarno and others on the matter of Papua. To paraphrase, 'Papua has the right for self-determination and its own independence. If we continue this, why not Solomon or even the whole pacific islands'. There were also other objections from different parties with different narratives.
6:12 the neighbouring Biak Island (and Serui) was and still considered by Papuan themselves or other Indonesian to be part of the Papuan-sphere. A rather curious trivia: historically, it was some educated individuals from this island who supported the republic then also the 'transfer' of Papua, but then also the 1st organize freedom movement. It was in the port of this island the Biak massacre happened.
