>>14769286>>14769287I believed that the referendum was somehow rigged. That most Papuans don't really want to join us. Just because some guys supported Indonesian cause did not mean that their fellow islanders felt the same way.
I personally prefer supporting Papuan independence. They're just too diverse and different from the rest of us, but I also has a controversial argument on why we shouldn't let them go.
To me, either let the island become a single independent nation or have the entire island belong to us. That would have settled it for me.
