First Anniversary of the LoGA in Aceh
Wedensday August 1st. 2007 it was exactly one year ago that the President of Indonesia signed the Law on the Governance of Aceh (LoGA). The LoGA that were then passed in Jakarta
Ever since the LoGA was made in Jakarta the
Acehnese people have been participating actively demanding that the LoGA, that was to be passed should be aspirational and in accordance with the MoU.
The LoGA is a law made especially by Jakarta Helsinki 15th August 2005 is the primary frame of reference.
All Acehnese know that the
LoGA, that was signed in Jakarta
Thus, the time has come for the Indonesian Government and GAM to correct the points of the LoGA, that is not in accordance with the MoU, in order for the peace process to run as it was initially planned for the benefit of all Acehnese.
It should not be forgotten, that the peace in Aceh was not imposed by force but a wholesome peace that involved all aspects of the social life of the Acehnese. Also the peace in Aceh should not only be enjoyed by a small group of people – those close to the power - but by the whole people of Aceh.
The Government/the leaders should not just want to forget the negative effects of the conflict or to leave the victims to ponder on the memory of the suffering of their past without granting them the right to get justice or to start a new life after the conflict.
We, the Acehnese staying in Europe , urge all stakeholders in the peaceprocess in Aceh to:
- To take steps to forward the appeal from the Acehnese people for a revision of the LoGA by the Indonesian Government in order for it to live up to the MoU.
- Form a tribunal to deal with Human Rights violations committed in Aceh and allow an independent investigation of these violations and allow those responsible for to be tried at this tribunal.
- Give full support to the victims of the conflict and of the Tsunami, including the Reintegration-fund that should be freed from conspiracies and bureaucracy and carry out its work in an ethical and honest way.
- Be attentive and supportive of aspirations of the Acehnese people, that are presented in a democratic manner and to the benefit of all Acehnese.
