not as much as making Timor Leste as a buffer but actually they are chasing Timor Leste's massive oil and gas reserve.Reported Australia/Timor-Leste Oil Deal "Cheats" East Timorese, Says ETAN
Contact: John M. Miller, 718-596-7668; 917-690-4391 (cell)
For Immediate Release
May 17 -- The East Timor and Indonesia Action Network (ETAN) today said that the reported agreement between Australia and Timor-Leste on the division of resources in the Timor Sea "cheats" the new nation. It urged the two governments to transparently conduct negotiations based on fundamental international legal principles. ETAN also condemned Australia's continued pressure through media leaks and other means to force Timor-Leste to concede its oil and gas rights by making a rapid agreement on the Timor Sea.
"The pending deal cheats Timor-Leste's sovereignty and revenue," said Karen Orenstein, Washington Coordinator of ETAN. "Timor-Leste's independence will not be fully realized until its boundaries, both land and sea, are defined and accepted by its neighbors."
The Timor-Leste government has not yet approved the proposal, and the details of any agreement have yet to be released. After last week抯 negotiations, Australian media reported that Timor-Leste will receive some revenues from the disputed Greater Sunrise gas field in return for deferring resolution of the maritime boundary for generations.
"According to international law, Greater Sunrise belongs to Timor-Leste. It is the height of hypocrisy for the Australian government to claim it is somehow being generous while bullying Timor-Leste to give up what is rightfully theirs," added Orenstein.
"Why the rush to complete a deal?" asked Charles Scheiner, spokesperson for ETAN. "Timor-Leste will receive sufficient revenues from other oil projects for the next 15 years. Furthermore, the value of Sunrise natural gas will increase over time, and the companies involved have made a priority of other projects."
"After the negotiators reach a provisional agreement, both governments should involve their people in a thorough discussion of its merits before it is ratified," added Scheiner.
Late last month, East Timorese NGOs urged their government not to 搑ush in obtaining an agreement for the exploration of Greater Sunrise; it is more important that you determine based on international law..." They also asked "the Australian government to return to international dispute resolution processes for maritime boundaries" and to "cease exploration" and granting new licenses in disputed areas.
Background
Substantial oil and natural gas deposits lie under the Timor Sea between Australia and East Timor. How much each country will receive of the tens of billions of dollars of revenue is contingent on a permanent boundary or other agreement.
Last week, Australian foreign minister Alexander Downer announced that the latest round of talks with Timor-Leste had resulted in an agreement that would allow development to go forward on the disputed Greater Sunrise petroleum field. However, Timor-Leste's Prime Minister Mari Alkatiri vehemently denied the report, calling it "an absolute lie."
Australian media reported that Australia will pay Timor-Leste around $3.8 billion over the next 30 to 40 years; negotiations over the maritime boundary would be delayed for 60 years. Experts project government revenue from the Sunrise oil and gas at around $39 billion. Under a prior arrangement, Timor-Leste would receive only 18% of this. The rumored agreement this week would increase the Timor-Leste share to around 27%.
Since East Timor's independence referendum in 1999, the Australian government has taken in approximately $1.2 billion in revenue from oil fields much closer to East Timor than to Australia. Under current international legal principles, these fields should belong to East Timor. Australia claims the bulk of the revenues from the largest known field, Greater Sunrise, on the basis of prior occupation stemming from illegal agreements with Indonesia, the former occupier of East Timor. Development of Greater Sunrise has not yet started, and production and revenues won抰 begin flowing for at least a decade after an agreement is reached on ownership.
In October 2002, Timor-Leste enacted a Maritime Boundary Law, asserting its claim of a 200 nautical mile Exclusive Economic Zone in all directions, based on the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. Where neighboring claims overlap, as is the case with Timor-Leste and Australia, countries must agree on a boundary, usually halfway between their coastlines. The Australian government preemptively withdrew from maritime boundary jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice and the International Tribunal on the Law of the Sea two months before Timor-Leste's independence, leaving the new republic with no legal recourse if negotiations are protracted or unsuccessful, as they have been thus far.
In March, 17 senior members of both houses of the U.S. Congress wrote Australian Prime Minister John Howard to urge "Australia to move quickly and seriously to establish a fair, permanent maritime boundary with Timor-Leste, based on the rule of law..." They wrote that an "equitable sharing of revenue is not a question of charity; rather it is a matter of self-determination, sovereignty and Timor-Leste's future."
Last year, the Senate Appropriations Committee stated that it "again encourage all parties to negotiate in good faith in accordance with international legal principles."
In Australia, the Timor Sea Justice Campaign said this week, "You can't get a fair outcome from an unfair process," accusing the Australian Government of "trying to force East Timor into another shabby deal that well short of East Timor's legal entitlements..."
ETAN has supported human dignity for the people of East Timor since 1991. ETAN advocates for human rights (including national and women's rights), democracy, sustainable development, and social, legal and economic justice.

International law and political realities have changed since Indonesia and Australia carved up the seas before and during the Indonesian occupation of Timor-Leste. Under the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), maritime boundaries between nearby states are drawn on the median line, halfway between the coastlines. Under this principle, all of the fields in the above chart belong to Timor-Leste. These principles, rather than agreements signed by other nations over illegally occupied territory, establish the new nation抯 rights.
As Timor-Leste抯 belated independence became inevitable, Australia continued to lust after revenues from Bayu-Undan, the larger Greater Sunrise gas field, and lucrative Laminaria-Corallina. With support from Woodside and Phillips Petroleum, Australia wanted to continue the Timor Gap Treaty抯 joint development area, sharing the revenues with Timor-Leste instead of Indonesia. They also refuse to recognize current international legal principles, preferring obsolete ones which privilege larger countries.
Two months before Timor-Leste抯 independence, Australia withdrew from processes for settling maritime boundary disputes using the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea and the International Court of Justice. Instead, Canberra forced its poor, small neighbor into an unbalanced negotiation where Timor-Leste抯 right to a maritime boundary is indefinitely postponed (probably for generations, until all the oil and gas is extracted) in return for a share of the money from the oil and gas. With tremendous human needs and no other source of income, the newborn government felt it could not risk delaying Bayu-Undan, and the UN acquiesced.
Fourteen hours after the birth of the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste on May 20, 2002, it signed the Timor Sea Treaty with Australia sapa bilang kita tinggalkan mindanao terkapai-kapai:shakehead3:
Malaysia terus bantu MindanaoMANILA 1 Mei - Malaysia akan terus membantu proses damai di selatan Filipina, selepas mengundurkan pasukan pengamannya dari Mindanao bermula 10 Mei ini.
Panglima Angkatan Tentera Malaysia (ATM), Jeneral Tan Sri Abdul Aziz Zainal berkata, bantuan untuk proses damai itu tidak akan dihentikan.
"Kami telah menyediakan platform bagi membolehkan rundingan damai diteruskan, dan kami mungkin mencari format baru bagi membolehkan rundingan disegerakan," katanya kepada pemberita selepas mengadakan pertemuan dengan pemimpin tentera Filipina di sini, hari ini.

Malaysia telah menempatkan pasukan pengaman di Mindanao sejak 2004 bagi menamatkan ketegangan selama 40 tahun di wilayah itu yang telah mengorbankan lebih 120,000 nyawa dan menyebabkan lebih dua juta lagi penduduk menjadi pelarian.
Minggu lalu, Menteri Luar Malaysia, Datuk Seri Dr. Rais Yatim mengesahkan bahawa Malaysia tidak lagi akan menghantar pasukan pengaman ke Mindanao selepas mandat bagi pasukan sedia ada berakhir pada September tahun ini.
Menurut Rais, keputusan itu dibuat kerana tiada kemajuan dalam rundingan damai antara Kerajaan Filipina dan Barisan Pembebasan Islam Moro (MILF).
Kira-kira 20 daripada 41 anggota pengaman Malaysia dijangka kembali ke negara mereka pada 10 Mei ini selepas mandat berakhir.
Kerajaan Filipina dan MILF menyuarakan kebimbangan kemungkinan keganasan akan kembali tercetus selepas pengunduran pasukan pengaman Malaysia itu.
Menurut Abdul Aziz, kehadiran pasukan pengaman antarabangsa telah berjaya mengurangkan berpuluh-puluh kes pencabulan gencatan senjata sejak tahun 2005, berbanding 700 kes yang direkodkan pada 2002.
Justeru beliau percaya, penduduk di selatan Filipina yang telah mengecapi keamanan sejak dua tahun lalu akan berusaha mengekalkan keadaan tersebut dan tidak kembali berperang.
"Kami yakin bahawa situasi di wilayah berkenaan akan terus bertambah baik," katanya.
Abdul Aziz dijadual meninjau kedudukan pasukan pengaman antarabangsa di Davao City sebelum mengadakan rundingan dengan pemimpin MILF di wilayah Shariff Kabunsuan, Mindanao, Sabtu ini.

Rundingan damai yang digerakkan oleh Malaysia bermula 2001, telah terhenti sejak Disember 2007 selepas MILF menuduh kerajaan menukar beberapa persetujuan mengenai pemilikan tanah masyarakat Islam di selatan negara ini.
Selain menyediakan tempat untuk perundingan, kehadiran pasukan pengaman Malaysia telah berjaya mengurangkan ketegangan antara pihak tentera dengan pejuang Islam di wilayah terbabit.

COTABATO CITY 10 Mei - Kumpulan pertama anggota pasukan pemantau Malaysia mula berundur dari selatan Filipina hari ini.
Seramai 28 daripada 41 askar dan anggota polis Malaysia dalam pasukan itu menaiki dua pesawat pengangkut tentera di tiga lokasi di Pulau Mindanao dan diterbangkan ke sebuah pangkalan di Sabah.
Baki anggota dalam Pasukan Pemantau Antarabangsa (IMT) itu dijadual berlepas pulang pada akhir Ogos ini.
IMT yang diketuai oleh Malaysia itu terdiri daripada 60 anggota yang turut termasuk 10 askar dari Brunei, lapan dari Libya dan seorang pegawai pembangunan Jepun.
Ketua IMT, Mejar Jeneral Datuk Mat Yasin Mat Daud berkata, pasukannya telah meletakkan batu asas untuk perdamaian di selatan negara ini dengan mengawasi gencatan senjata antara tentera Manila dengan pejuang Barisan Pembebasan Islam Moro (MILF) sejak 2004.
"Kami semua meninggalkan Mindanao dengan perasaan bercampur-baur," kata Yasin kepada Reuters.
Beliau memerhatikan askarnya memasuki sebuah pesawat pengangkut Casa-235 sementara askar Filipina membantu menaikkan peralatan ke dalam sebuah pesawat lain.
"Kami gembira kerana akan pulang ke pangkuan keluarga tetapi kami juga bersedih kerana terpaksa meninggalkan impian yang belum tercapai.
"Kami masih menaruh harapan untuk melihat kerajaan dan MILF menandatangani perjanjian damai tidak lama lagi kerana itu juga menjadi impian kami," kata Yasin.
Malaysia sebelum ini menyatakan, pasukan pemantaunya diundurkan kerana tidak ada kemajuan dalam rundingan damai yang tergendala sejak Disember 2007.
Namun Kuala Lumpur memberi jaminan akan terus menjadi perantara rundingan tersebut.
Komander tentera kanan Filipina di kawasan Cotabato, Mindanao, Mejar Jeneral Raymundo Ferrer berkata, beliau menjangka kegiatan puak pemisah akan meningkat dalam beberapa minggu akan datang.
"Mereka di kawasan terlibat sudah mula merasakan peningkatan ketegangan yang mungkin menjejaskan gencatan senjata," kata Ferrer.
MILF yang meraikan pasukan pemantau Malaysia di markasnya di dalam hutan semalam turut melahirkan kebimbangan sama.
"Keadaan tidak pasti selepas Ogos ini," kata salah seorang pemimpin atasan MILF, Ghadzali Jaafar selepas menyampaikan sijil penghargaan kepada setiap anggota pasukan Malaysia di markas itu.
Pegawai Jepun dalam IMT, Masafuni Nagaishi berkata, kerajaannya tidak berhasrat untuk menghentikan projek kemasyarakatan dan ekonomi bernilai hampir 200 juta peso (RM14.8 juta) di kawasan konflik di Mindanao.
"Saya makin bimbang mengenai isu keselamatan apabila IMT berundur sepenuhnya lewat tahun ini," kata Nagasihi selepas berjabat tangan dengan askar pemantau di lapangan terbang di sini.
Menurutnya, Jepun mahu meneruskan bantuan kepada Mindanao tetapi segala-galanya bergantung kepada keadaan di kawasan ini.
"Saya khuatir keadaan keselamatan akan me rosot tanpa IMT," katanya.
- Reuters barisan hadapan kita pejuang MORO la... filipine tak bole dibiarkan aman, kalu
depa aman sure depa nak claim Sabah balik... so lagi skali di suggest supaya Msia
support perjuangan puak pemisah dan supply senjata.
Takyah. Bagi sokongan moral bley la, nanti tak pesal2 MY dituduh supply terrorists ngan persenjataan & bantuan dana. Tak pesal2 kita bg greenlite pd balaci2 US kat rantau ASEAN nih buat pre-emptive strike kat MY lak.
MILF bley survive on their own. Diorg dah bley buat small-arms & homemade rpgs, sure bley lawan tentera Pinoy yg rata2 kelengkapan persenjataan jauh lebih teruk dari militia Moro.
