Mahasiswa Papua di Jawa semakin mendapat tekanan dari kelompok nasionalis Islamis
Spoiler for ENGLISH:
Papuan students on Java Island have repeatedly become the target of intimidation by Islamist and nationalist groups as armed conflict between security forces and separatist groups in Papua escalates.
In the latest incident on Friday afternoon, scores of security forces along with civil militias from hard-line group Islam Defenders Front (FPI) and youth organization Pemuda Pancasila (PP) reportedly went to a Papuan student dormitory on Jl. Kalasan in Surabaya, East Java, and launched physical and verbal attacks against the students, following the finding of an Indonesian flag discarded near the dorm.
According to the Surabaya Legal Aid Institute, which cited the account of a student staying in the dormitory, Indonesian Military (TNI) soldiers allegedly banged on the door of the dorm while uttering curse words such as "monkey", “dogs” and “pigs” aimed at the students inside the dormitory. Dozens of FPI and PP members reportedly came not long after.
Human rights lawyer Veronica Koman, who is also a representative of the National Committee for West Papua (KNPB), said Sunday that the angry mob purportedly damaged the dorm’s gate and threw stones at the building while chanting “Kick out Papuans!” and “Slaughter Papuans!” for hours, restricting the students’ movement.
Two good Samaritan Indonesian students, who at midnight delivered food to the students trapped inside the dorm, claimed to have been assaulted and later arrested by police who were guarding the area.
“This is beyond my comprehension, what could possibly be the crime of delivering food and water? Even prisoners have a right to eat,” Veronica said, adding that the pressure continued on the following day with the police shooting teargas into the dorm and arresting all 43 students inside the building.
“[All the teargas and violence] is totally unnecessary. They are only unarmed, hungry, thirsty and tired students who have been rounded up by hundreds of racist civil militias and security forces for more than 24 hours,” she said.
Tension between local residents and Papuan students also arose in Candi subdistrict, Candisari district, Semarang, as residents were offended by the students’ alleged reluctance to participate in the Independence Day celebrations in the neighborhood.
“We sent an invitation to join the morning march on Sunday, but two students later came to my house saying they couldn’t because they had to attend Sunday service [at the church],” local leader Maryanto told the Post on Sunday. “But when we passed by their dorm on Sunday morning, most of them were still there.”
‘Insult against the nation’s symbol’
Surabaya Police deputy chief Adj. Sr. Comr. Leonardus Simarmata said separately that the arrests were made as the police were looking for the person who destroyed an Indonesian flag and dumped it into a ditch.
“We are just enforcing the law regarding an alleged insult against the country’s symbol,” Leonardus said in front of the dorm on Saturday. However, he assured that the police would never deny the students’ right to live in the city.
All of the students have been released after being questioned as witnesses.
Veronica deplored that such an incident had to happen every year in a similar pattern.
A clash also occurred last year on Aug. 15 at the same dormitory, during which some members of mass organizations allegedly forced Papuan students to fly the country’s flag in front of their dorm. The students claimed they did not object to the suggestion, but they first needed to inform the dorm’s caretaker, who was out of Surabaya at the time.
The initial “refusal” led to a fight between the students and mass organization members, in which one was injured. Surabaya Police officers subsequently visited the dorm and took dozens of boarders to their headquarters for questioning. The students were released hours later.
'Prolonged discrimination against Papuans'
Experts on Papua issues argued that the incidents kept recurring as a result of several factors, including the prolonged discrimination against native Papuans from fellow citizens and security forces, in addition to unresolved past human rights abuses that took place in the easternmost part of Indonesia.
“Papuans are often depicted [by the government and mass media] as anti-nationalists who want to separate themselves from the country. The media, however, fail to present the reason behind such aspiration,” said an expert on Papua issues, Darmawan Triwibowo.
“There’s a human rights issue behind the desire, which is a political problem that should also be addressed using a political approach instead of a security or economic approach,” he added.
His voice was echoed by Papua Peace Network coordinator Adriana Elisabeth, who said various human rights violations that occurred in Papua had not been resolved to this day, despite President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo’s 2014 campaign promise to do so.
“Papuans feel like they don’t belong in the country as long as the government doesn’t resolve past human rights abuses. That’s the background we should understand,” Adriana said, urging the government to stop stigmatizing Papuans with the separatist label or treating them like criminals.
The government should also initiate talks with activists and local figures from Papua to address the ongoing tensions and conflicts. “President Jokowi was highly respected in Papua. Therefore, he should start the initiative,” she added.
Representatives from the region have frequently expressed their concerns over the government’s continuous violence in Papua at various international forums. The most recent was at the 50th Pacific Islands Forum (PIF), held from Aug. 13 to 16 in Tuvalu, where pro-Papua independence leader Benny Wenda urged state leaders to support the free Papua campaign amid recent escalating violence in Papua, including in Nduga regency.
Dozens of citizens supporting the free-Papua campaign at the Pacific Islands Forum were reportedly arrested by the Jayapura Police on Thursday. The people staged a rally, demanding a “conflict resolution” in Papua.
Papua Police spokesman Sr. Comr. Muhamad M. Kamal confirmed the arrest on Thursday night, saying that the protestors were being questioned at the police headquarters.

Pelajar Papua di Pulau Jawa telah berulang kali menjadi sasaran intimidasi oleh kelompok Islamis dan nasionalis ketika konflik bersenjata antara pasukan keamanan dan kelompok separatis di Papua meningkat.
Dalam insiden terakhir pada Jumat sore, sejumlah pasukan keamanan bersama dengan milisi sipil dari kelompok garis keras Front Pembela Islam (FPI) dan organisasi pemuda Pemuda Pancasila (PP) dilaporkan pergi ke asrama mahasiswa Papua di Jl. Kalasan di Surabaya, Jawa Timur, dan meluncurkan serangan fisik dan verbal terhadap para siswa, setelah ditemukannya bendera Indonesia yang dibuang di dekat asrama.
Menurut Lembaga Bantuan Hukum Surabaya, yang mengutip akun seorang siswa yang tinggal di asrama, tentara Indonesia diduga menabrak pintu asrama sambil mengucapkan kata-kata kutukan seperti "monyet", "anjing" dan "babi" ”Ditujukan pada siswa di dalam asrama. Lusinan anggota FPI dan PP dilaporkan datang tidak lama setelah itu.
Pengacara hak asasi manusia Veronica Koman, yang juga merupakan perwakilan dari Komite Nasional untuk Papua Barat (KNPB), mengatakan pada hari Minggu bahwa massa yang marah konon merusak gerbang asrama dan melemparkan batu ke gedung sambil meneriakkan “Kick out Papuans!” Dan “Slaughter! Orang Papua! ”Selama berjam-jam, membatasi gerakan siswa.
Dua siswa Indonesia Samaria yang baik, yang pada tengah malam mengantarkan makanan kepada siswa yang terperangkap di dalam asrama, mengaku telah diserang dan kemudian ditangkap oleh polisi yang menjaga daerah tersebut.
“Ini di luar pemahaman saya, kejahatan apa yang mungkin terjadi jika mengantarkan makanan dan air? Bahkan tahanan memiliki hak untuk makan, ”kata Veronica, menambahkan bahwa tekanan berlanjut pada hari berikutnya dengan polisi menembakkan gas air mata ke asrama dan menangkap semua 43 siswa di dalam gedung.
“[Semua gas air mata dan kekerasan] sama sekali tidak perlu. Mereka hanya siswa yang tidak bersenjata, lapar, haus dan lelah yang telah ditangkap oleh ratusan milisi sipil rasis dan pasukan keamanan selama lebih dari 24 jam, ”katanya.
Ketegangan antara warga setempat dan siswa Papua juga muncul di Kecamatan Candi, Kabupaten Candisari, Semarang, karena warga tersinggung oleh keengganan siswa untuk berpartisipasi dalam perayaan Hari Kemerdekaan di lingkungan tersebut.
"Kami mengirim undangan untuk bergabung dengan pawai pagi pada hari Minggu, tetapi dua siswa kemudian datang ke rumah saya mengatakan mereka tidak bisa karena mereka harus menghadiri kebaktian Minggu [di gereja]," kata pemimpin setempat Maryanto kepada Post pada hari Minggu. "Tapi ketika kami melewati asrama mereka pada hari Minggu pagi, kebanyakan dari mereka masih di sana."
'Menghina simbol bangsa'
Wakil Kepala Kepolisian Daerah Surabaya Ajun. Sr. Comr. Leonardus Simarmata mengatakan secara terpisah bahwa penangkapan itu dilakukan ketika polisi sedang mencari orang yang menghancurkan bendera Indonesia dan membuangnya ke selokan.
"Kami hanya menegakkan hukum tentang dugaan penghinaan terhadap simbol negara," kata Leonardus di depan asrama pada hari Sabtu. Namun, ia meyakinkan bahwa polisi tidak akan pernah menyangkal hak siswa untuk tinggal di kota.
Semua siswa telah dibebaskan setelah diinterogasi sebagai saksi.
Veronica menyesalkan bahwa kejadian seperti itu harus terjadi setiap tahun dengan pola yang sama.
Bentrokan juga terjadi tahun lalu pada 15 Agustus di asrama yang sama, di mana beberapa anggota organisasi massa diduga memaksa mahasiswa Papua untuk mengibarkan bendera negara di depan asrama mereka. Para siswa mengklaim bahwa mereka tidak keberatan dengan saran tersebut, tetapi mereka terlebih dahulu perlu memberi tahu penjaga asrama, yang berada di luar Surabaya pada saat itu.
"Penolakan" awal menyebabkan perkelahian antara siswa dan anggota organisasi massa, di mana satu terluka. Polisi Surabaya kemudian mengunjungi asrama dan membawa puluhan asrama ke markas mereka untuk diinterogasi. Para siswa dibebaskan beberapa jam kemudian.
'Diskriminasi yang berkepanjangan terhadap orang Papua'
Para ahli tentang masalah Papua berpendapat bahwa insiden itu terus berulang sebagai akibat dari beberapa faktor, termasuk diskriminasi berkepanjangan terhadap penduduk asli Papua dari sesama warga negara dan pasukan keamanan, di samping pelanggaran HAM masa lalu yang belum terselesaikan yang terjadi di bagian paling timur Indonesia.
“Orang Papua sering digambarkan [oleh pemerintah dan media massa] sebagai anti-nasionalis yang ingin memisahkan diri dari negara. Namun, media gagal untuk menyajikan alasan di balik aspirasi tersebut, ”kata seorang pakar tentang masalah Papua, Darmawan Triwibowo.
"Ada masalah hak asasi manusia di balik keinginan itu, yang merupakan masalah politik yang juga harus diatasi dengan menggunakan pendekatan politik alih-alih pendekatan keamanan atau ekonomi," tambahnya.
Suaranya digaungkan oleh koordinator Jaringan Perdamaian Papua Adriana Elisabeth, yang mengatakan berbagai pelanggaran hak asasi manusia yang terjadi di Papua belum terselesaikan sampai hari ini, meskipun Presiden Joko “Jokowi” Widodo berkampanye pada 2014 berjanji untuk melakukannya.
“Orang Papua merasa seperti mereka tidak berada di negara asalkan pemerintah tidak melarikan diri dari pelanggaran HAM masa lalu. Itulah latar belakang yang harus kita pahami, "kata Adriana, mendesak pemerintah untuk berhenti menstigmatisasi orang Papua dengan label separatis atau memperlakukan mereka seperti penjahat.
Pemerintah juga harus memulai pembicaraan dengan para aktivis dan tokoh-tokoh lokal dari Papua untuk mengatasi ketegangan dan konflik yang sedang berlangsung. “Presiden Jokowi sangat dihormati di Papua. Karena itu, ia harus memulai inisiatif, ”tambahnya.
Perwakilan dari wilayah tersebut sering menyatakan keprihatinan mereka atas kekerasan berkelanjutan pemerintah di Papua di berbagai forum internasional. Yang terbaru adalah di Forum Kepulauan Pasifik ke-50 (PIF), yang diadakan dari 13 hingga 16 Agustus di Tuvalu, di mana pemimpin pro-Papua Benny Wenda mendesak para pemimpin negara untuk mendukung kampanye Papua gratis di tengah meningkatnya kekerasan baru-baru ini di Papua, termasuk di Kabupaten Nduga.
Lusinan warga yang mendukung kampanye Papua bebas di Forum Kepulauan Pasifik dilaporkan ditangkap oleh Polisi Jayapura pada hari Kamis. Orang-orang menggelar unjuk rasa, menuntut "resolusi konflik" di Papua.
Juru bicara Kepolisian Papua Sr. Comr. Muhamad M. Kamal mengkonfirmasi penangkapan pada Kamis malam, mengatakan bahwa para demonstran sedang diinterogasi di markas polisi.
