Papuan students and leaders of West
Papua’s Free Papua Movement have sent their congratulations to the
newly-elected Prime Minister of Vanuatu, Hon. Charlot Salwai.
The Student Forum Cooperation Groups of
Melanesia (FMKRM) congratulated the new Prime Minister of Vanuatu
Charlot Salwai Tabimasmas, elected at the first parliamentary session in
Vanuatu on 02/11/2016.
Mael Alua, administrator of Cenderawasih
University (Uncen) Students Consultative Assembly Jayapura said it also
congratulates the election of PM Salwai. “We the West Papuan students
congratulate the success of Hon. Charlot Salwai Tabimasmas”, said Alua
on Monday in Jayapura.
According to Alua, the students take
pride in the new Vanuatu PM because the country is one of the Melanesian
nations that publicize the repression and human rights violations
occurring in West Papua.
Meanwhile, the chairman of the Student Executive Board of
the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences of Uncen Jayapura, Yali
Wenda, said Papuans should convey a greeting to the new PM, since
he will help stabilize the political crisis in Vanuatu.
“We hope that new Prime Minister Salwai
and Solomon Islands PM (Manasseh Sogavare) can re-invigorate MSG’s
efforts to push the West Papua issue at the international level”, said
Wenda, who went on to say that he is pleased that the new Prime Minister
is a person who understands the Papuan struggle, along with his
Deputy Prime Minister, Joe Natuman.
The United Liberation Movement for West
Papua (ULMWP) hopes Vanuatu will return to its position as a traditional
supporter of the Free Papua Movement. “Congratulations to Charlot
Salwai. We knew he was a good man. He and his cabinet are the ones who
are always close to us, supporting Papua Merdeka, “said
Secretary General ULMWP, Oktovianus Mote last Thursday, shortly after
Salwai was elected. Mote added that Papuans should celebrate PM Charlot
Salwai and the people of Vanuatu for the smooth and peaceful general
election in Vanuatu.
