11:06 pm
a 2nd time early next week if the delay bill the legislation going through the house of lords to force him to seek an extension and to ward off a no deal if that does actually wrap up on friday it's pretty certain that boris johnson will try again to trigger a snap general election and now the opposition is saying that they won't grant him his wish they want to make sure that there's no way that britain can be taken out of the e.u. without a deal on october the 31st they want to guarantee the either he goes to brussels and seeks an extension because there's still talk among the opposition that they don't trust him and that he could simply try to ignore that legislation or they want to force him to resign which under the law would see perhaps a national union national unity government formed boris johnson is still insisting

11:30 pm
toward. an isolated incident this is something that has occurred for decades students studying but one student studying outside of. you've always heard stories about how they're called monkeys. of course also has impacted. also have been called. who have been called monkeys or nuclear. before. this one incident where an appeal was actually thrown into the field so betty you can hear some of the hurt in her voice there commute describe for us what it's like to be in indonesia. 588 years we've been under suppressed by indonesia illegal occupation that's ambassador to say that. it's part of indonesia but not west proper never part of
11:31 pm
indonesia we've been separate we've been separate we had different graphically culturally linguistically we had never been part of indonesia that's why they called us a monkey from the beginning when since they're. going to occupied our country 96 to treat since then blasted beginning 500000 men a woman has been killed up to now so in the news ambassador he claimed that was popular part of indonesia never in the west but was never a part of indonesia we 20 years we separate indonesia got independent 945 west but when they were part of indonesia we'll call it dutch new guinea that's why dutch gave a independent 90616263 indonesia illegally occupied that's why that's the beginning of the massacre up to now so indonesia claim over west
11:32 pm
palm is illegal so they say cleaning is continuing rape torture imprisonment people just coming out and wrists read peacefully we demand our right to self-determination 9069 indonesia and we are called up to pretoria we call actually doing choice that is why we dumped or claimed that you know new you'll agree men 66. august 96 somebody we're number one bringing the international committee out today with a story that as you have said can spot for many many decades you any please jump in here because what that he's saying is that we don't even belong to. do you have no claim to have for us this is the root of the question. here i. if you want to look at the roots of these are what i think is simplifying the issues just to aid and issues human rights violations there are many structural issues that have been
11:33 pm
happening in part one and that has led to the sense factions and grievances that many have feeling to this day i think. the process of creation process is not yet the process is not finished yet and there are many things that the central government should have done better to integrate the pup once more into the society but i would i don't understand i am saying so i is the answer you get teaching me a lot of things today as well i don't understand what integration means in the context of indonesia and the west papuan region can you give us an example yes but what ben you mentioned before about the york. 69 basically that gave grant it only shows. that the police part of the leisure and.
11:34 pm
not us was a large part of indonesia you are wrong it is recognized by no. means 9 to 68 by solution programme was. only took the note united nation on little bit north africa cut again country rejected your claim by the african so he were hearing but then again you have come to me and many this is a perfect example of why there is a dispute internees here right now because we're hearing the claim in the celtic lord i was i was just very curious if you could give me one example and getting out quickly about what you meant by integration. yes. become a became part of leisure then there's a problem with. building more of one problem the other problems that that's happening here but it's not just because of the way current mishandles about the issue here but it's also due to
11:35 pm
a mission of this well and the issue of lack of prosperity issue of. not not very good good governance there in public what we actually done by the part one themselves so get it's a very complex issues and populous a truly has a special autonomy granted to them which is not enjoyed by other problems. basically the special autonomy grants once great people it is for example are only public ones can one for office in what but also it can also run for office in other provinces even for the highest position if you know if they want to and so we mostly don't know. how many people will be i missed the last. almost half of the 1000 been killed and it is still autonomy what you're talking about there. yes.
11:36 pm
there are government cannot just save their lives while it's you know cycle of violence i mean if you're on it absolutely anybody got any i didn't ask you for it is lost forever any i'm betting i'll bet also from polls from i've picked i think tight for a 2nd a little i do want to take a victory see you trying to get in there and i want to bring you in a couple of comments here because there are voices that people online are telling us that we're not hearing and that is because government and acted a shutdown data for the most part of internet data and so it's been hard to get those voices out this is what one person on twitter says he says this means that we are able to verify facts it means there was a chance of more fake news getting out of hand in tunisia handles this all wrong all because they were desperate for control so that's one person's perspective but then news broke just today this from stephen who says intern egypt has partially
11:37 pm

11:38 pm
any information. this is a problem for us is not only to prepare him but also because we are based in online . so what. people say than to do this i think is very true. so when we. were in america before. the fall of the intervention. of the government and rick we want to you know we were working pretty hard to do a little angel. because you know no more. media. publish this story which probably is only some media like us. but it's very hard ok to be honest i think it's really. ok not only to be united but also to work.
11:39 pm
for the news. let me just move on a little bit i want to show our audience benny's twitter page and the 20 trip profile he calls himself a west point independence leader this is really important in the context of this conversation because after this violence. complaints about discrimination betty you've been asking and pushing for the independence of west papuan region for a very long time does this latest series of protests does that mean that you're closer to independence than ever before. i'm confident that this is the time to you know change now because you know a world is finding out wall in watching what happened and what happening because the last 50 years in and he said do not least i'm honest the international rescue and international peace brigade so that's right now world is finding out because.

a new hero morgan who said robert mugabe is early achievements will always be overshadowed by the years of oppression. do we put the great liberator or do we put somebody who has betrayed the liberation that the food. i think the little prevail the 2 rivals ended up in government together although mugabe made sure he kept the real power and chunky violator returned to a position where he would eventually die without being is constantly sharing how hypocritical the west is and africa loves that and for that reason and i think he will be judged alternately as being a more important figure in africa than simply this party isn't as part he's a dictator he's a tyrant he's anywhere you want to threaten but it's something more than that he says he's the wrong messenger with the right message. by now his wife grace 41

but please tell me. the real tragedy robert mugabe could never bear da da or of his country enjoying a 2nd freedom from his ruinous grip. nelson chamisa is the leader of the official opposition in zimbabwe the movement for democratic change and is joining us live from hard out here we appreciate your time since thank you very much indeed robert mugabe had a reputation in the latter part of his role as treating the opposition in zimbabwe brutally how is the opposition going to view his legacy now that he's dead well we you know the latest of mr mugabe there way to ease there is nothing that we can add or subtract to work done is commissions and omissions are clear and. our position is very clear as an alternative and indeed the incoming government in
11:56 pm
zimbabwe that we are knowledge their contribution made by mr mugabe to the liberation of our country and also his contribution to the early days when he contributed to education and health but he also acknowledged the reality that there were all so negatives in terms of detainees that people had to go through or not congo is all missions and commissions in government. it seems that robert mugabe is still widely held in positive terms by many of his supporters many zimbabweans particularly within the country itself how frustrating is that to the opposition. well we are not frustrated because mr mugabe had a global footprint he also had an international presence he had a contribution internationally but what is gratifying to us is the fact that at the end of his reign when he had been. out of office even voted for change
11:57 pm
for myself incidentally someone got is one of the few people who did not hide their votes he clearly and those there were tentative it clear then goes. not even part of them or change and we are excited that there was the end of his reign in the country senses on the need for democracy the need for justice the need for freedom the need for accounting for the past transgressions what you call again is the eyeless involvement in the human rights in humanitarian issues and for that reason we celebrated in fact we have lost of what we have lost their supporter we have lost a citizen and african son. how confident can smart and day zimbabweans be that the country has the correct checks and balances now politically to avoid a situation like the last 2 years of robert mugabe's rule happening again. yes we have seen that here we had many twists and turns many gains and pains but
11:58 pm
more pains particularly on our count of mr mugabe so activities during his reign and we are fighting so hard to make sure that we gate or those are transgressions that resulted in the loss of lives loss of property loss of time loss of opportunity for many zimbabweans most of the zimbabweans are now in that yes on account of missed opportunity or neglected when it is in their country but only someone got there is not helping matters their exit got him some god there was supposed to hear out a new dispensation a new era but we have not seen such in fact we have gone back to the dark days of the past where we are seeing an increase in escalation in human rights abuses in the human heart in crises in the economic mismanagement corruption and or other such crises that we have been trying to get and this is why it is in buckland's looking at mr mccarthy we are drawing a line in the center said this far and no further lest we forget we can't afford to
11:59 pm
look back in the past and repeat the past in a replica of the past or the past is simply horrible horrifies as we've been covering the story since the news broke of mr mugabe's death many people have been saying that he was such a strong driver of the formation of modern day zimbabwe that he created the basis for that and he never lost that vision although the way he delivered the message may have changed do you think that there is a misunderstanding by many other parts of the world of the way that robert mugabe was trying to achieve what he set out to achieve. well me someone got there was a human being is now it is now a part of this economy you could not have been docked perfect because he was not an engineer you made mistakes he had strengths and weaknesses but more importantly as far as we are concerned we threw that in left the nation divided 11 the nation and
12:00 am
more disunited he left the nation in difficult seconds and especially in the breakdown of the rule of law the breakdown of governance system and those are the issues we need to correct so mr mugabe is an indicator of what we should do right the fact that he has led to pass on in foreign lands is something that points to the problems that we have in our country we can have our leaders in africa being treated in foreign lands we must be able to fix our politics fix our governance institutions fix our governance systems so that we have big ideas not just big men big institutions not just big is in our personalities that we will be airboat to be proud of ourselves so i totally understand those who think that mr mugabe did not probably do what was supposed to be done but he had good intentions i suppose for his country but all that's it is an african for us to start to focus on the negatives with my.
