Mar-29-2012 18:49TweetFollow @OregonNews INDONESIA: Indiscriminate Shooting by PoliceLetter by William Gomes Salem-News.comSalem-News.com Eye on the World report.
(HONG KONG) - People were shot in Mesuji village, Lampung, on 10 November 2011; the same day a villager was arrested by the Mobile Brigader (Brimob) for harvesting palms in the plantation area of PT Barat Selatan Makmur Investindo. When other villagers attempted to release him, the police responded by firing rubber bullets, provoking the villagers. This all stems from a huge land dispute between the plantation and villagers. During the ensuing clash, one person was shot on his left hand while another suffered a serious burn injury. The angry villagers then set fires at the plantation, which resulted in further shooting. One villager who was shot in the head, died. Another villager's leg was shot and broken. Four additional villagers were shot by police. Our goal with Eye on the World is to illustrate and highlight politically oriented problems and tragedies that traditional media channels don't have time or interest in covering. The world has its own set of laws that were agreed upon by the ruling nations in 1948, and many people are not aware of this simple fact. At the root of the concept of world citizenry itself, is the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, an overriding and supreme law that ensures many essential human rights that governments today fail to observe. Also central to any hope of human success, is the understanding of the human hierarchy of needs, as defined by Abraham Maslow- more information on this at the conclusion of this entry. We must use the Internet as a tool of justice at every junction, and we need to assist all human beings, everywhere, and not allow cultural, racial or religious preferences as determiners. In his letter, Mr. William Gomes asks Mr. Susilo Bambang Yudoyono, President of the Republic of Indonesia in Jakarta, Mr. William Gomes, asks that necessary measures are taken to settle an existing land conflict between the companies and the villagers, and for an independent investigation concerning the shooting. He says adequate compensation should be given to the villagers whose land had been taken away and some of its land into plasma plantation as required by the law. Any allegations regarding conspiracy between the company and the government officials should also be investigated.
Maslow's hierarchy of needsAs children we are educated in right and wrong, we are told how to conduct ourselves; we learn both expectations and limitations, and from that point we go forth with these tools, and our individual personalities, and fail or succeed accordingly.
