A visiting Western Papuan environmentalist is calling on our government to address human rights issues with Indonesia over its destruction of rainforests in their region. Wensislaus (Wensi) Fatubun is a former diplomat, a film-maker and human rights activist highlighting the toll the continued spread of oil plantations is having on West Papua tribes, traditions and the environment. Wensi explains the Indonesian military is making it nearly impossible for protests to be held.
