Quote: “The Netherlands with the 1947 Caberra Agreement has an international obligation to immediately restore West Papua’s decolonization process.

We have an obligation to make our freedomstruggle known on this international event, and tell to participants what is happening at the moment in West Papua Melanesia. This Flag for 4 days long will wave freely for every one to see. West Papua’s liberation is just a matter of time”.
