the basic rights of minority groups, especially indigenous peoples, is a priority issue that is
almost forgotten by policy or regulations
of local government
in the province of West Papua, Indonesia. There are many minority groups
who inhabit the province
of West Papua, but this description is more
focused on the minority groups, the Mairasi, Mie
`re and Kuri, as they
are the minority ethnic groups in the western part of the Gulf Wondama Regency,
Papua Province, Indonesia.
Also, besides that, there are the
Sebyar indigenous group act as the judge
and the owner of rival
tribal areas. Company operations by British Petroleum (BP - Indonesia)
are also located in the region, Aranday Bintuni, Indonesia,
and the indigenous peoples, the Arfak,
