| Tell the UN Security Council how you feel about justice! They will discuss Timor-Leste on 23 October. The United Nations Security Council will meet on Timor-Leste later this month, in what is known as an open debate, where representatives of the 15 members of the council (see list below) and other governments make statements. For the next two weeks, diplomats in New York will pay attention to issues involving Timor-Leste, including issues of justice, accountability and impunity for serious crimes and violations of human rights committed during the Indonesian occupation from 1975 to 1999. For years, these diplomats have heard from Timorese leaders, including Jose Ramos-Horta, Xanana Gusmăo and Zacarias da Costa, that the Timorese people are not interested in justice for past crimes, have other priorities for the country. As the recent liberation of Maternus Bere shows, the governments of Indonesia and Timor-Leste think that ending impunity is not as important as developing friendly relations with people and institutions who committed crimes against the people of Timor-Leste. If you as a citizen of Timor-Leste don’t agree with this, the UN Security Council needs to hear from you, so that they have a better understanding of Timorese views. The Security Council has the power to create an International Tribunal, but they will never do it if they believe that Timor-Leste doesn’t want it. For years, the UN has promised justice and accountability for human rights crimes committed during the Indonesian occupation, but they done little except repeat their principle that “impunity must never prevail anywhere.” If José Ramos-Horta and Xanana Gusmăo do not represent your views on justice, this is your chance to communicate directly to the leaders of the international community. Tell them who you are, what you think, what you want the Council to do, and why. Don’t worry about format or protocol; write according to your own capacity. Letters can be from individuals or organizations, in Tetum or English, handwritten, typed or emailed. If the letter is from an organization, please put it on letterhead. The East Timor and Indonesia Action Network (ETAN) and the International Federation for East Timor (IFET) will copy your letter and deliver it to each Security Council member in New York. Please email it to etan@etan.org in MS Word or Adobe PDF format, or bring your letter on paper to La’o Hamutuk’s office in Farol. Please send your letter as soon as it is ready, but no later than 19 October. Be sure to include your name and location. Members of the Security Council: Austria | France | Turkey | Burkina Faso | Japan | Uganda | China | Libyan Arab Jamahiriya | United Kingdom | Costa Rica | Mexico | United States of America | Croatia | Russia | Viet Nam |
