Editorial

Aceh Peace Train 

After five months of restive deliberations, marred by the government's 
alleged attempt to bribe legislators, all the factions in the House of 
Representatives on Tuesday passed the Aceh governance bill into law. The deliberations were 
conducted in a democratic manner, despite suspicions directed toward the 
former separatist group in Aceh and narrow-minded nationalism among some of the 
House factions.

It is understandable that some parties in Aceh, including the Free Aceh 
Movement (GAM), might be disappointed with the new Aceh Governance Law, because 
they had great expectations that the province would eventually receive an 
effective and powerful mechanism to create a self-governing authority in the 
territory, which has emerged from decades of violent rebellion. 

Since the signing of the memorandum of understanding between the government 
and GAM in Helsinki on Aug. 15, 2005, the peace train has been running on the 
right track because the two parties have committed themselves to ensuring the 
peace train, with the entire Aceh population on board, will reach its final 
destination on schedule. 

The people on board expect to enjoy lasting peace and democracy in the war 
and tsunami-torn province -- no matter how difficult and costly the journey. 

Many believe the memorandum of understanding is a miracle recipe for ending 
their decades of suffering from the war between the central government and GAM, 
and rebuilding a new Aceh after the Dec. 26, 2004, tsunami devastated the 
province. 

After the passage of the law Tuesday, however, there is a strong sense of 
dissatisfaction among elements of Acehnese society, because they think Indonesia 
has failed to live up to its pledges. Indonesia promised that Aceh would 
become an autonomous province with minimum interference from the central government 
in most governance affairs, apart from fiscal and monetary issues, foreign 
affairs, external defense and national security. 

The fragile peace process could be at risk if those who are unhappy with the 
law and the government waver in their commitment to pursuing peace and 
democracy in Aceh. 

It is worthy to note that the government, which believes it has done its best 
to accommodate the interests of the people of Aceh, also has to satisfy the 
interests of major political players, including the Indonesian Military and 
major political parties, who share the view that Jakarta should ensure that Aceh 
remains an integral part of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. 

It is encouraging that GAM remains firm in its commitment to peace, although 
it may have more difficulty now convincing all of the different elements and 
factions in GAM that in principle the peace process is still on the right 
track. More sacrifices and patience are needed, because the road is rockier and 
steeper than originally thought. The government itself has shown its willingness, 
as expressed by Home Minister Ma'aruf, to address complaints about the law. 

Those who are unsatisfied with the law can take several measures to channel 
their dissatisfaction, including taking the law to the Constitutional Court for 
judicial review. 

Therefore, we call on all concerned parties inside and outside Aceh, 
including Jakarta and abroad, to realize that the law itself is only one part of a 
long journey -- no matter how effective or damaging it may be -- the Aceh peace 
train must complete to reach its ultimate destination. They should not let the 
train derail, because once that happens it will be very difficult to get it 
back on track and continue the journey. 

Thanks to international help, Aceh is now rebuilding itself after the 
tsunami. The development process is only possible because the warring parties in the 
province are serious about maintaining the momentum of peace. Also, thanks to 
international monitoring, the peace process has progressed smoothly and has 
faced few big problems, like the recent tragic killing of farmers by 
unidentified assailants. 

International assistance is still needed to ensure the peace process 
continues on this path. We hope no one will manipulate nationalistic sentiment to 
provoke a new war in the troubled territory and end the international presence 
there. 

In September elections of governor, mayors and regents in the province are 
scheduled to begin. GAM still has the opportunity to nominate candidates to 
contest the elections, because the law on governance allows members of the group 
to run as independent candidates or to form coalitions with existing political 
parties. 

Again, although the law fails to satisfy all key players in Aceh, we strongly 
hope all parties will remain on board and continue the journey with the 
people on the peace train.

AMM vows to keep out of law fray 

Nani Afrida, The Jakarta Post, Banda Aceh

The Aceh Monitoring Mission (AMM) will not step into the controversy about 
the newly passed Aceh governance law, chief Pieter Feith said Wednesday.

He said the law on the administration of Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam was not a 
sudden "incident", but rather the result of the lengthy efforts of Indonesian 
legislators. 

"What we must stress about is that this is not an incident, but the work of a 
parliament. And all parliaments in democratic countries work independently 
and there must be no interference." 

The AMM, consisting of representatives of the European Union and the 
Association of Southeast Asian Nations, is assigned to monitor the process of 
legislative change and to rule on complaints of alleged violations of the Helsinki 
agreement, which was signed between the Indonesian government and Free Aceh 
Movement (GAM) leaders in Helsinki last August. 

Feith described the law as comprehensive and fairly accommodated the elements 
of the agreement between the government and the GAM. 

"Anyway, we need to study it further because it has many articles and 
details," he added. 

The law passed Tuesday by the House of Representatives is based on the tenets 
of last year's Helsinki agreement. But GAM officials and activists argue the 
law fails to live up to the its principles, particularly in curtailing the 
power of the local administration in international cooperation and management of 
natural resources. 

They also condemn the use of non-retroactive principles for past human rights 
abuses. 

Along with several non-governmental organizations, the GAM plans to file a 
complaint with the AMM about the law. 

In Jakarta, Indonesian Military (TNI) Commander Air Chief Marshal Djoko 
Suyanto said the armed forces "were committed to supporting the peace process in 
Aceh". 

Speaking at a meeting Wednesday night with media editors, he conceded rampant 
crime persisted in the province, but said such disturbances should not 
obstruct the overall passage to peace, "and should not lead us toward fresh 
fighting". 

The unrest, he insisted, should be resolved in a peaceful and professional 
manner. 

But an activist from the Aceh Referendum Information Center (SIRA), Dawan 
Gayo, said the law had to be immediately revised because it contravened the 
spirit of the peace deal. 

He said the law was an even worse deal than the 2001 Aceh Special Autonomy 
Law, which was enacted in a bid to appease separatists by allowing the 
application of Islamic law in the province. 

Information and Communication Minister Sofyan A. Djalil, who was a member of 
the government negotiating team, said the option to seek amendments was always 
available. 

He said the Aceh law was unique because its 99 articles could lead to the 
issuance of 94 bylaws, or qanun, three presidential decrees and two government 
decrees. 

The law provides the basis to prepare a local election, which has been 
delayed twice, which is expected as early as September. 

Meanwhile, support for the law continued Wednesday. 

The head of the Aceh Sharia Department, Alyasa Abubakar, was quoted as saying 
by Antara newswire that the law gave a much clearer explanation about the 
application of Islamic principles in the overwhelmingly Muslim province. 

A group of civil groups under the Ulee Kareng forum in Aceh also responded 
positively to the law, which they said could serve as the momentum to build a 
better, more independent province.

Aceh gains autonomy after legislation passes

By Simon Lauder

ELEANOR HALL: Indonesia has for the first time opened the way for local
political parties to be formed in Aceh, as part of a deal with former
separatist activists in the province.

The Indonesian Parliament has passed legislation giving autonomy to the
northern province of Aceh and sealing the negotiated peace deal.

But while Indonesia's President, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, has been
nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize over the deal, there are claims that
Indonesian police have already violated the agreement.

Simon Lauder has this report.

SIMON LAUDER: It's been almost a year since the Free Aceh Movement and the
Indonesian Government reached an agreement, ending about three decades of
conflict in the province.

The military presence in Aceh was blamed for the deaths of some 15,000
people.

Last August, the Free Aceh Movement, or GAM, agreed to drop its demand for
independence in exchange for the Bill that has now passed the Indonesian
Parliament. And it delivers more than just peace.

DAMIEN KINGSBURY: Most Importantly, what this agreement has done has been
to create a democratic space in Aceh, a genuine democratic space.

SIMON LAUDER: Deakin University's Damien Kingsbury was an adviser to GAM
during last year's peace talks.

He says the Indonesian Government has opened the way for the people of
Aceh to elect their own representatives later this year.

DAMIEN KINGSBURY: The Acehnese will largely have control over their own
affairs. Of course, there are some matters which will still devolve to the
Government in Jakarta, such as foreign affairs, communications, external
defence and so on.

More importantly, I think that there will be a local representative process.

SIMON LAUDER: The new local government of the resource-rich province will
get 70 per cent of revenues from Aceh's oil and gas reserves.

But Damien Kingsbury says there's concern the agreement reached last year
has been weakened in the final draft.

Associate Professor Kingsbury says the ongoing role of the military is
vague under the Bill, which doesn't allow proper prosecution for past
human rights abuses and also leaves Jakarta largely in control of Aceh's
foreign aid and foreign investment.

He says that's already sparked protest.

DAMIEN KINGSBURY: There was a strike called by the Aceh Referendum
Information Centre, which is an umbrella NGO (non-governmental
organisation) for groups in Aceh. So they distributed leaflets calling for
a general strike, which was largely recognised. Most shops and transport
wasn't running yesterday.

But unfortunately the police have now arrested a number of organisers from
this NGO, and in contravention, I might say, of both the Memorandum of
Understanding and Indonesian law. And these people have been held captive
now since Monday, and we don't know where they are.

There's also been a few shootings of civilians in the last few weeks too,
which have indicated that there were some in the armed forces who were
trying to derail the process.

SIMON LAUDER: Despite the misgivings of the armed forces, who've
effectively ruled Aceh for about 30 years, Aceh now has partial self rule,
a middle ground between the prospects of separatism and continued
conflict.

Damien Kingsbury says it's a success for President Susilo Bambang
Yudhoyono, one that may strengthen the case for change in Papua province
and the President's chances of winning the Nobel Peace Prize.

DAMIEN KINGSBURY: One would think that he would see this as now offering a
model for the resolution of conflicts elsewhere, in particular in West
Papua, and seeing if it would be possible to talk to people there about
coming up with a similar sort of arrangement.

SIMON LAUDER: He's in the running for the Nobel Prize. Do you think he's
looking good on that front?

DAMIEN KINGSBURY: Well, it's interesting that he would be nominated for
the Nobel Prize.

Whilst he was ultimately responsible for the success of the peace
agreement and he gave it his stamp of approval, he was never at any stage
directly or actively involved in the process.

But finally, I think that there's also credit due to the people of Aceh
for having had to put up with for so long a brutal military presence in
Aceh and finally embracing peace when they were given the opportunity to
do so.

ELEANOR HALL: And that's Associate Professor Damien Kingsbury, ending that
report from Simon Lauder.

Mixed reactions over autonomy law in Indonesia's Aceh

JAKARTA, July 12 (AFP) -- Former separatist rebels in Indonesia's Aceh
insisted Wednesday that a new law giving the province greater self-rule
falls short of provisions in last year's peace pact and warned they may
complain.

The law, passed by the national parliament on Tuesday, clears the way for
local elections to be held in the tsunami-lashed province, where 29 years
of conflict had left around 15,000 people -- mostly civilians -- dead.

"It is clear from the draft that there are things that are not in line
with the Memorandum of Understanding," a spokesman for the Free Aceh
Movement (GAM), Munawarliza Zain, told AFP, referring to the peace pact.

The pact was signed in Helsinki last August, spurred on by the devastating
2004 tsunami which left some 168,000 Acehnese dead. GAM agreed to drop its
demand for independence in return for, among other concessions, the right
to form local political parties which are banned elsewhere in Indonesia.

Zain argued that the new law's provisions on the role of the central
government were prone to multiple intrepretations, giving Jakarta room for
interfering in Aceh's regional affairs.

"It says the government has authority over matters related to national
interests. We fear that many of the powers of the Acehnese government will

be stifled under the pretext of national interests," he said.

Former GAM members were studying the law and would announce a formal
stance in a few days, he said.

Zain also said GAM would allow its members to run as independents in the
upcoming elections but would set up a political party to contest regional
seats in the 2009 national elections.

Another GAM spokesman, Bakhtiar Abdullah, said the law gave the central
government a major role in the management of Aceh's rich natural
resources, including oil and gas.

"This is one of the sources of dissatisfaction among GAM and the Acehnese
people," he said.

Abdullah said his group would lodge a complaint to the European Union-led
Aceh Monitoring Mission (AMM), which is tasked with overseeing the peace
pact and mediating any disputes, if it agreed the pact was violated.

Representatives from the government, GAM and the AMM would meet later
Wednesday to discuss the new law, he added.

The AMM, which ends its mission in September, said Tuesday that it was
studying the law's content.

Other Acehnese were optimistic about the new legislation.

"I think the law is a good step forward. Of course it is not perfect and
GAM will never get everything they want, that's why they need to
compromise," said Azwar Hasan, coordinator of the Aceh Revival Forum, a
non-government organisation focusing on tsunami recovery.

Food vendor Abdullah said he was hopeful for a peaceful future now the law
-- which under the pact should have been passed by March 31 -- was passed.

"Today I read a newspaper story about the passing of the law. I'm grateful
to Allah and pray that Aceh will remain peaceful for a better future," he
told the state Antara news agency.

Vice President Yusuf Kalla said he was confident that the law would be
accepted by most Acehnese.

"I'm sure everything will go smoothly. This law will enable the local
government to function," he was quoted as saying by the Detikcom news
website.

A report released in March by the International Crisis Group warned that
the law had been diluted by the home affairs ministry and that the
toughest times were ahead for the pact.

Acehnese welcome political law and newfound peace

BANDA ACEH, Indonesia, July 12 (Reuters) - Many residents in Indonesia's
Aceh say they are unaware of the specifics of a new law giving the ravaged
province greater autonomy, but don't want any opposition to it to derail a
new-found peace.

The Indonesian parliament passed a bill on Tuesday aimed at cementing a
peace deal signed in Helsinki last August between Jakarta and the
separatist Free Aceh Movement (GAM), ending a conflict that killed around
15,000 people, mostly civilians, from 1976 to late 2004.

The peace agreement was a result of months of talks spurred by the 2004
Indian Ocean tsunami that left around 170,000 Acehnese dead or missing.

Acehnese, weary of past failures to end the conflict, want this pact to last.

"Working people like me have no idea on the shape of the bill," said
43-year-old Khairuddin, who lives near the provincial capital Banda Aceh,
1,700 km (1,060 miles) northwest of Jakarta. "I don't even know the shape
of the government we have now."

"What I want is just a safe Aceh," said the fruit farmer.

The bill covers a range of issues, including rules paving the way for the
first direct election of Aceh's governor and the chance for ex-rebels to
run for that post.

"Hopefully, this bill will improve the lives of the Acehnese and violence
will no longer exist," said Syamsuddin Nur, who works for a local
government agency. "The central government must obey the rules in that
legislation."

"The bill should not disrupt the peace that has been painstakingly
restored," he said, sipping a cup of sweet, black Acehnese coffee at one
of the ubiquitous roadside stalls in Banda Aceh.

GAM officials say the bill falls short of Jakarta's promises to give Aceh
control of most of its affairs.

But Indonesian lawmakers argue the deliberations conformed to the Helsinki
truce and the end result is that Aceh has more autonomy than any of
Indonesia's 32 other provinces.

Indonesian officials have challenged GAM to spell out which part of the
273-article bill is in violation of the Aug. 15 peace deal.

After Indonesian and GAM representatives met on Wednesday with
European-led foreign monitors ensuring the implementation of the truce,
the former separatists said they needed time to read the bill.

"GAM has not looked into, nor thoroughly studied, the approved bill. We
need to study its content first," GAM spokesman Bakhtiar Abdullah said.
That would include inviting the opinions of independent legal experts and
the process could take around a month, he added.

The Helsinki agreement came after GAM dropped its demand for an
independent Aceh state. Jakarta in turn promised to allow local political
parties, including any group set up by GAM, to operate in Aceh, although
that contradicts Indonesian laws.

Existing national laws require parties to have branches in more than half
the country's 33 provinces and individuals to get party endorsements
before they run in elections.

Analysts say GAM could hurt its chances in the coming polls if their
disappointment with the bill goes too far, because public opinion is
largely in favour of the peace process moving forward.

Indonesian media reacts to passing of Aceh governance law

Sources: As listed

The Aceh governance law was ratified by the Indonesian House of
Representatives (DPR) on 11 July 2006, and the event received broad
coverage in the online media on 11-12 July.

Following is a roundup of major relevant articles covering announcements
of the ratification, in addition to pro and contra responses from
government officials and former members of the Free Aceh Movement (GAM).

"House approves law cementing 2005 peace deal with Aceh rebels"

The Jakarta Post website, 11 Jul 06, attributed to Associated Press: The
article reported that the DPR passed the law which "granted Aceh greater
autonomy and paved the way for elections", and also "gave Aceh control
over 70 per cent of its mineral wealth, including significant oil and gas
reserves".

A spokesman for the former GAM, Munawarliza Zain, was reported as
criticizing several sections of the legislation, stating that "it gave too
much authority to the central government and left the role of the military
unclear".

Zain was further reported as saying that "while former GAM members had no
plans to take up arms, they would complain to members of the European
Union monitoring mission deployed in Aceh".

Head of the DPR special committee which formulated the legislation, Ferry
Mursyidan Baldan, was reported as acknowledging the criticisms and advised
that amendments were still possible. He was quoted as saying, "We are very
aware that what we have achieved is not perfect, but this is the best we
could do".

"Aceh governance bill unanimously ratified"

Kompas website, 11 Jul 06, unattributed report: This Kompas article
similarly reported the law's ratification, adding that of the 279 DPR
members who attended the morning's plenary session, around 160 remained
for the afternoon session at which the Aceh law was passed. Government
representatives attending the session were Home Affairs Minister M. Ma'ruf
and Minister for Communications and Information Sofyan Djalil, according
to the article.

The article reiterated the DPR special committee's proviso that the law
"was not perfect", adding that "it was not made merely to please everyone,
but was based on the aspirations of Aceh society that they and the
government of Aceh could develop a specific society under the auspices of
the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI)".

"Kalla: "[Ratification] of Aceh law deserves congratulations"

Detikcom website, 12 Jul 06, attributed to Ken Yunita: Vice-President
Jusuf Kalla is reported by the article as saying that congratulations are
in order for the ratification of the Aceh law. He said that the law was
the foundation upon which to build a good quality Aceh provincial
government. "I am sure everything will run smoothly, this law will make it
possible for the regional government to function properly," Kalla was
reported as saying.

In response to a number of rejections of the law from various quarters,
the vice president was reported as saying that such reactions were normal.
"Once the law is implemented, the people of Aceh will definitely accept
it," he said.

"Vice-president optimistic on implementation of Aceh law"

Media Indonesia, 12 Jul 06, unattributed report: This article also covered
similar comments by the vice-president, again reassuring doubters that
their doubts would disappear once the law was put into practice. He was
quoted as saying, "Once the law has been in place for a year, there will
be no more concern, people will accept it once they have seen it in
operation. The doubts are only based on speculation like 'hopefully the
government doesn't take over authority again'. So, it's just speculation".

Kalla was further reported as saying that the law actually delivered more
than what was stipulated in the Helsinki MoU. He provided the example of
the additional funding of two per cent of the 'general funds allocation'
[for 15 years], and the joint management with the central government of
oil and gas resources.

The vice-president went on to say that local elections (pilkada) could now
be held in either October or November, noting that a period of three
months was required to complete preparations. He was further reported as
discounting the possibility of Aceh being sub-divided into two or more
provinces, pointing out that the law very clearly defined the boundaries
of the province.

"KPA does not agree with Aceh governance law"

Media Indonesia, 11 Jul 06, unattributed report: This article reported the
objections of the Aceh Transitional Committee (KPA) to the Aceh law,
because according to the KPA, the law did not comply with the articles in
the Helsinki MoU.

KPA spokesman Sofyan Dawood was quoted by the article as follows, "Much of
the content of the draft [now ratified] does not comply with six of the
articles agreed upon in the MoU. One of them is unclear regarding the
authority to govern Aceh".

Dawood went on to comment on the management of the province's oil and gas
resources, saying, "We want the sole rights to manage our natural
resources in Aceh. We want 100 per cent management rights, however we will
share the profits with the central government".

"Aceh governance law regarded as not meeting wishes of ALA community"

Analisa, 12 Jul 06, unattributed report: The issue of the sub-division of
Aceh Province is the focus of this Analisa article, which covers comments
by the Speaker of the regional legislature of Bener Meriah District,
Tagore Abubakar.

This article and a number of previous reports advise that five local
government administrations, with the full support of their constituents,
were lobbying for the establishment of a new province named Aceh Leuser
Antara (ALA). Reference is also made to moves in other districts for the
establishment of Southern West Aceh (ABAS) Province.

Abubakar was reported as saying that he strongly suspected the new law did
not provide for the creation of new provinces from the existing Aceh
province. He continued that if this was proven correct on 13 July, when
the content of the law was publicized, the districts supporting the
creation of ALA would boycott local elections. "If the wishes of the ALA
community are addressed, we will support the law. If not, the obligation
to comply with the articles in the law is no longer valid," Abubakar was
quoted as saying.

"Aceh governance bill ratified, but impediments remain"

Liputan6.com, 11 Jul 06, unattributed report: The article covers the
ratification of the bill and the lead-up work that produced the final
result. It reports comments by the Deputy Chief of the DPR special
committee which formulated the law, Sukartono, who noted that the
committee had received and considered input from all levels of Aceh
society, including the governor, Islamic scholars and customary councils.

Responding to complaints that the section in the new law dealing with the
distribution of oil and gas profits was in conflict with what was
stipulated in the Helsinki MoU, Sukartono was reported as saying that it
was not within the scope of the Aceh law to rule on the issue, as there
was a separate law which regulated distribution of profits.

The article goes on to advise that it has been determined that Aceh will
receive 55 per cent of oil and gas profits and the government 45 per cent,
whereas the Helsinki MoU had advocated a figure of 70 per cent for Aceh.

"President to visit Bireuen District in Aceh"

Republika, 11 Jul 06, attributed to Antara: According to the article,
President Yudhoyono was scheduled to visit Bireuen District in Aceh on 14
July to officiate at the opening of three schools. An Aceh regional
government spokesman advised that according to information he had
received, a number of cabinet ministers would accompany the president on
his visit.

The article made no mention of the Aceh governance law, and gave no
indication that the president's visit was being made in this context.

Muslim figure hails Aceh governance law

Banda Aceh, July 12 (ANTARA) - A noted Muslim figure on Wednesday hailed
the newly-enacted law on Aceh governance which he said lays a firm basis
for the implementation of sharia law.

Compared to Law No. 18/2001 on special autonomy for Aceh, the new law made
one step forward, Head of the Aceh Provincial Islamic Sharia Office Prof.
Dr. Alyasa Abubakar said.

"The implementation of sharia law in Aceh is not firmly stipulated in Law
No.18/2001 as the law still needs further elucidation. However, in the new
law on Aceh governance the implementation of sharia law is stipulated more
clearly and firmly," he said.

This meant that the comprehensive implementation of sharia law as
stipulated in the law on Aceh governance made significant progress
compared with Law No. 18/2001, he said.    "Under Law No.18/2001, the
implementation of sharia law in Aceh is obscure and still needs further
regulations, such as on the authority of judges and public prosecutors.

However, all problems related to sharia law have been contained in the law
on Aceh governance and therefore, government regulations will no longer be
needed," he said.     "We hope in the future Aceh will become more secure
and peaceful so that the dignity of Acehnese people will improve and we
can work to build Aceh not merely to serve group or seasonal interests but
the interests of the whole Acehnese people," he said.

The House of Representatives (DPR) passed the Aceh governance bill into
law on Tuesday after five months of intense deliberations.

Some Acehnese people said the law served as a starting point to improve
the welfare of Acehnese people who were suffering the misery of the three
decade-long conflict and the 8.9 magnitude earthquake and its subsequent
tsunami on December 26, 2004.

"It is the obligation of all Acehnese people to thank God because we
believe that starting today we will be free from conflict after the
central government has fulfilled growing aspirations by endorsing the Aceh
governance bill into law," Abdullah, resident, said on Wednesday.
