In sending donations, I strongly urge members to make sure they go
directly to human rights organizations and NOT through
military/governmental organizations, especially in Aceh and Banda Aceh.

 Nearly 100,000 Dead in Aceh From Tsunami, as Activists Blast Indonesian
Military for Holding Up Critical Aid
January 3, 2005

As the aftermath of the Asian Tsunami continues to devastate the region,
the people of Aceh in Indonesia have paid the heaviest price with some
94,000 feared dead. But human rights activists and aid groups accuse the
Indonesian military of holding up aid to the most needy because of its war
against the province. We'll talk to a human rights activist from Aceh and
veteran activist and journalist Allan Nairn.

Please consider encouraging the UN and governments in your countries to
speak out against what the Indonesian Army is doing, even in the face of
this terrible crisis.
