The
Indonesian military has publicly said that it will "destroy anyone who
boycotts the Indonesian elections". Huge numbers of West Papuans will
boycott the elections and will only vote in a free and fair referendum
on self determination. The Indonesian military regards all West Papuans who want to be free as targets.
Regional Indonesian military Commander) XVII / Cenderawasih, Maj. Gen. Drs. Zebua MM, also said "I want to know who is going to boycott the presidential elections in Papua? Which group I want to know, because we from the military will crack down if there are such efforts,"
As a mass coordinated effort by the Free West Papua Campaign, West Papua National Committee [KNPB] and many other Papuan groups unfolds to boycott the upcoming Indonesian elections on July 9th, the Indonesian military has issued a statement that it will "destroy/annihilate anyone who boycotts the Indonesian elections".

The KNPB also published this news story and released a statement saying that this statement of terror is an old story and that the boycott will continue exactly as planned.
It will be entirely peaceful.
This incredibly violent and malicious threat is nothing new to West Papuans, who still live under a state of constant terror in their own country with widespread violence occurring almost every day.
Indonesia has claimed that the situation in West Papua is "getting better not worse" but when the military threatens to "destroy" anyone who refuses to vote for a government which will kill the Papuan people, how can the situation be getting better?
It is our duty to educate the world about why we are struggling for West Papuan self-determination and independence.
