    Can see those responsible from both Indonesian 'officials' and Freeport-McMoRan 'officialdom' regretting their actions on the other side of the so-called Pearly Gates.

    "So why doesn’t the world know more about West Papua?
    Quite simply, because Indonesia’s restive, easternmost region is home to “one of the least covered armed conflicts in the world,” said Bob Dietz, Asia-Pacific director for the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ), of the more than 50-year conflict.
    There are no official statistics but estimates put the number of Papuans killed by Indonesian authorities at anywhere between 100,000 and 500,000 people.
    Four decades of heavy restrictions on media and human rights groups’ access to West Papua has resulted in a near media blackout.
    Linked to all this is a United States-based mining giant, Freeport-McMoRan."

    As the saying goes, "Money is the root of all evil".
