Hungry bellies calling for a counter lunch

British Petroleum chairman Peter Sutherland is to speak at a business lunch in Dublin on Sept. 9th.

Today marks the 41st anniversary of the New York agreement concerning West Papua.

Basically control of the western half of the island was handed from the colonial Netherlands to the regional power Indonesia.

Ignoring the native tribespeople, Indonesia brutally repressed Papuan demands for independence, countless numbers of people have been killed.

The Indonesians also allowed mining companies to wreck havoc on much of the environment that sustains tribal life.

Undaunted the demand for independence still grows among West Papuans

BUT !

British Petroleum is 'helping' to pay for the Papua councils running costs ... if Papua gets independence it's government is likely to emerge from this council. So as the floorplans for an 'independent' Papua are been drawn up, corporations are in on the groundfloor.

And speaking of corporations in on the ground floor ...

That rabble of cabal-rousers the American Chamber of Commerce Ireland are holding an exclusive business lunch on Tuesday 9th September.

Chairman of British Petroleum Plc. (and darling of the World Economic Forum) Peter Sutherland will be a guest speaker at the Conrad Hotel, Earlsfort Terrace (around the corner from St. Stephens Green).

If you have an appetite for an all inclusive counter-business lunch (maybe with some leftover Anti-WEF energies) give us a shout at the above e-mail address to knock about ideas to put on the the menu for Sept. 9th.
