Thanks and yes make more about Australia and New Zealand.
As for this part of the world, it is some of the most inhospitable you can find.. Chevron and Bechtel run the place like a pirate state. The Howard government gave all that gas to China decades ago. President Obama's mother and father were deep in the oil biz with Suharto.

Wonder to head you up regarding Latin America. Most countries are under international communist control now. Despite people support on current president, next year will be general election in Brazil; deep state and supreme court are forcing a coup through non auditable electronic voting system… in the meantime narcos, NGOs, globalists and china are aware of loosing power… there is a chance of civil unrest and maybe the need of militaries to get back country’s control…. We are moving closely to US. Your feedback is much appreciated. Good job
10:29 As an Indonesian, I should clarify the fall of Suharto (the New Order) occurred in 1998 not 1989.
As an Australian I still can’t believe how we prosecute the guy that exposes this and then compliment ourselves on how free and open of a democracy we are
Bill of rights 404
We live in the illusion of freedom and democracy. good to see you are finally waking up... too bad most never will.
same goes with Britain in 17th century
during imperial and colonial era
Did you see what happend last year?
The staate wants control! they expand it with every opertiunity
Thats why big goverment is causing problems wich they blame on others so they can convince the public that we need more goverment
Australia: We want your resources
East-Timor: Someone heeelp
China: *enters the chat*
Australia: ...well that backfired
The irony of how the Australian exploitation of the weak(instead of offering something like a mutual rights agreement), allowed for China to enter decades later.
The funny part is the Australia govt is now crying foul, after being the bully in this whole issue.
There’s always someone bigger
sadly, they barely got the help
And our media will scream bloody murder and fear monger about China being an evil empire. The hypocrisy is astounding.
It will back fire for Dili. They are about to be a colony again.

As an Australian, this was a hard watch. It's a good reminder that every country can commit unjust or immoral acts in the name of national benefit, especially your own.
First time?? I’m American.. you get used to the lack of power against evil lol
That wasn't meant as a reminder of how every country falls short. It is an expose of Australia''s hypocrisy, deception and greed. Indeed it's complicity in genocide. Now say something...
@@spotthedod why HE need to say something?
@Big Ghoulish Boi, some people tend to do it more than others.
Since the day Australians set foot in that region everyone in that area as suffered terribly. The chickens will come home to roost one day, I'd imagine it will come with a lot of Chinese support.
@@Vroomfondle1066 It's possible but if I'm from east Timor, the alternative couldn't be much worse.
Honestly, I don’t blame East Timor rejecting Australia in favour of China. During WWII, Australian troops were sheltered from the Japanese by the Timorese, at great risk to themselves (thousands of civilians were killed by the Japanese). We repaid them by recognising Indonesia’s invasion and occupation of East Timor and ignoring the genocide (and even the killing of Australian journalists by Indonesian troops, look up the Balibo Five). We changed our stance and supported their independence in the 90s, but then turned and cheated and bullied them out of their natural resources. They have every justification in aligning with the Chinese.
If Australia wants to be the voice of law and order and rules based diplomacy in the Indo-Pacific (i.e. opposing Chinese expansion into Taiwan and the South China Sea) we need to start acting like a fair and responsible neighbor, otherwise it'll just be playing realpolitik against a stronger adversary.
Same
Hi, Australia doesn't need to start acting fair. It's way too late by now and irrelevant really. The so called western world wants everyone to come to their side against China because they are supposedly abusive and self centered and true as that may be, it means nothing to poor nations like Sri Lanka, East Timor etc. because the west treated them no differently and right now China seems a better bet economically anyways. Another good (and important) example is how the US treated Turkey. Turkey was concerned greatly over the US invasion of Iraq and what it might do to the local.. "ecosystem" (and i guess an independent kurdish nation). The important point is, the US didnt even bother to consider the interests of one of its most important allies in the region. They flatout ignored Turkey and now Turkey sits with the massive consequences of the chaos (refugees, chaos, violence, economic problems etc) while the US pulled out, and naturally Turkey goes its own way now.
It's too late. East Timorians have been betrayed three times. There's literally no reason for them to trust Australia and be backstabbed a fourth.
@@dracomet2097 The sad truth is that China will exploit them heavily too. I am not too well versed in these affairs of Australia, but my impression is that China or Australia is a pick your poison scenario (but China is stronger, and not going against them is safer). It's not a given that Australia will treat them with more fairness though, given how low standards Australia has, it's frankly anyone's guess which partnership will work out best for Timor. One cannot with any legitimacy automatically claim "it's Australia". I dont want it to sound like I root for China; China is just the Nemesis that the west has to suffer for its continous, arrogant hubris that in many ways has not seen its likes in human history. The west, after all, claims to have invented and formalized human rights and the international legal system only to make a mockery of it so many times when it wasnt convinient. Many western politicians of the mainline liberal/conservative wing still act as if third world (i mean this in the "unaffiliated" sense) countries are lucky and priviliged that we wanna talk to them (and that the west has a ton of goodwill in the third world that it probably does NOT have) and that they should be kind of in awe of wester superioty and sophistication. China is under no such illusions about tis own image; its brutally down to hard business and not surprisingly, many may repect this approach more.
You look like a slav, yeah, you aren't shilling at all.
Australia's politics and government is heavily influenced by those big mining and gas companies.
I know. I live here in Western Australia 🇦🇺
It's also interesting looking at which political parties were in government during the various stages.
Australia isn’t a country it’s a foreign owned economic zone , we get no benefit from our lands being raped and pillage on top of our mining oligarchs raping the lands of others ( Bougainville )
It would make sense for a country to support and finance its bigger sector

I've been to Timor Leste in 2019 and this topic was omnipresent. People are aware but just can't do anything about it.
@Dan2314 Wonderluck Selling out to China isnt advantageous to East Timor either though. You effectively become a vassal. So either they become a Chinese puppet or they remain broke.
@Dan2314 Wonderluck - the Timorese are not stupid. Indonesia was bad enough for them.
@Dan2314 Wonderluck China is worse than Indonesia in many regards. It pretends to help you, showering you with promises and funds, and when you get indebted to them, they will take your land piece by piece. Don't believe me? Ask Montenegro. Montenegro was promised a highway built with Chinese loans, loans that could not be paid. Now that China is asking for the money, Montenegro needs to concede land to them as payment, including the already built infrastructure. So Montenegro now is both broke, indebted and without the fruit of labor.
@Dan2314 Wonderluck Also, realistically speaking, if Indonesia and Australia are faced with the prospect of a Chinese port and military base in East Timor, they would rather invade East Timor and settle the issue with war. They would rather take the bad press than see their power and influence in the region being diminished. Australia is acting hypocritically, but the ramifications of a Chinese military presence in East Timor will not resonate in Canberra only, but also at Washington and other powers that have interests in the region.
Between Chinese and Indonesian timoresse will choose Indonesian ffs the invasion is headed by a dictator at the time by now theres not much bad feeling.
And all of the time, Indonesia is the one to blame for the east timor conflicts as human rights violators. Ironically, those come a lot from Australian
I always thought our country is a black sheep or a Scape goat for this western bullshit, even tho what soeharto did still unforgivable (but its the same for other indonesian no one genuinely like him)
"...cannot do both simultaneously anymore than it can mix oil and water."

I had no idea that in modern times, Australia had behaved in such a disgustingly underhanded and scummy manner.

@@MrVice123456 It was largely thanks to the hard work of some very dedicated activists.
@@MrVice123456 the entire reason why Indonesia invaded East Timor was they have the support of Australia
As someone said at the time, Australia arguing with East Timor over the oil, was like Bill Gates arguing with a servant over a dollar.
The most pathetic part about this is that Australia could've been nice to Timor and established some kind of economic relationship. Instead they chose to play the imperialism game and ultimately that's lead to an adversarial global super-ish power now having friend right off their coast.
And I'm sure Timor is fully aware that China will screw them over too, probably don't even want to do it, but Australia has backed them into a corner and left them with no choice but to bring in China. The Timor people need those resources and stability *now*.
Had Australia been fair to Timor the little nation could have built themselves up into a regional economic power, becoming a strong ally in the region and with good economic ties which would have been far better for both countries than what they have now.
@@HarleyHerbert they are aware that Australia will screw them over. Nothing China can do will be as bad because Australia is just off their coast and China is kind of far away. It's a reasonable assumption.

@@HarleyHerbert China has historically treated it's allies, vassals and tributaries with great respect. I doubt it would be any different now with East Timor, the whole idea that "Oh now the Chinese would screw them" shows how far Western propaganda is rooted in the minds of people who don't know anything about Chinese history.
So basically, Australia robbed East Timor.
those whites robbed the territory of the indigenous too. It's basically an English Empire in disguise as calling themselves as Australians. They don't even have their own language to begin with. It's a fake country. It's a colony.

@@formulaoneigniti0n994 no, it is imperialism. A perfect example of it. Corporatism is an ideology which advocates for workers and employers to be organized into groups based on industry called corporations subordinate to the state. What Australia is doing is clearly not corporatism but imperialism.
@@SA-np5yy You make it sound as if corporatism is a good thing when it has already been proven time and again that it is not the case at all. Corporatism is the biggest expression of usury and banditry within the sphere of capitalism. "imperialism" is just a catch-all term for communists to refer to anything they don't like.
On one hand you have Australia exploiting them like the capitalistic corporation they are, and then you have communist china telling and giving the Timorese sweet sounding deals while holding a knife behind their backs.
In other words; australian lawmakers and communist china can go to hell. They are two sides of the same coin owned by the globalist merchants anyways.
Well... behind the curtain Australia is a colony (commonwealth). It has the same feather as the UK, Canada, NZ, and US. It does not have its own language. The head of state is the same as the UK. The people are basically Europeans.
It is basically part of an Empire.
That's why Australia supported Timor Leste's independence from Indonesia. Had nothing to do with human rights.
Yeah nah yeah yeah nah, humans rights mate. Don't worry 'bout it 'ey, 't's all good, fair dinkum.
As was mentioned in the video, the agreement Australia has with Indonesia would have granted Australia resource rights to the area, if anything East Timor's independence has complicated the matter.
Did you actually watch the video? What he was saying was the exact opposite. It was in their interest that Indonesian took over East Timor and the Australian Government secretly agreed to it. They just didn't count on the Australian Public sense of Fair Go and Aussie Vets rallying against it.
Let’s hope that west papua has oil then
The lies the mainstream corporate media will spoonfeed you... in collusion with those very same governments.
correction:
The fall of the Soeharto government was in 1998 not 1989
Yeah...farely recent (unfortunately)
I would have thought Shervan as a former geopolitical analyst would not make those kind of errors. Shervan needs to do his homework.
My opinion soeharto is a doodoo because he killed many indonesians (300.000-2.000.000 depending on source) only for being a communist or a supposed communist, or a political adversary. So fortunately his regime fell

There is historical and cultural ties between Austronesian and Melanesian tribes. Political will to developing Papua is strong right now. The only times when Indonesian government discriminate Papua is during Soeharto era, but only in development matters not racial. There is no apartheid and segregation law in Indonesia. If there is any racism toward Papuan, it only a minority. And historically, Indonesians is more racist towards ethnic Chinese than Papuan.
If you assuming Indonesian is racist why native Papuan and migrants from other islands can live in the same neighborhood? Separating term of Papuan from Indonesian itself is stupid.

Reality : "Lol no We freeing you and we will steal your resources just like in East Timor 😂"
@@PerryKobalt I think based on West Papua's position relative to Australia it'd be much harder to claim an Australian EEZ around it; which is essentially what they've done with shafting timor-leste. Either way, the right to self-determination is still important for any nation, including West Papua if the citizens there so desire it.
@@InimicusXII well Papua is a whole just like an mini Africans and some of my friend(actual native Papua) told me
"During my childhood he witnesses the Papuans killing each other daily (Loyalists of Indonesian vs Independenist movement) and also he(survived) almost died on bullet on his chest right near the heart"
And he says back then I want West Papua independence 12 years ago want to become an Independece Guerilla but after he read *the East Timor case* he now changed his mind and become Indonesian police
he told me
"After I research the whole mess of my land I realized this bloodshed had so many interests of themselves(WestPapuanIndepenceRevolutionaryArmy), not for people that we hoped , now I have seen why WPIRA killing Civilians of Loyalists and that made me question of the WIPRA is it they truly for the Papuans of all ? but killing our own people even they(loyalist) are also papuans but we killed them just for that ? That's not for all Papuans that's literally G*nocides against ourselves and that's why I surrendered myself and Become an Indonesian police in order to not let these happened again"
And that his story of my friend Amara in 2019
I don't know now how my friend doing now but I'm sure he doing his duty
Well as a whole about West Papua thing, it's a big mess with many interests group interests that want something but I'm sure in the future we need a find a solution for this mess

Fu*k them, what about what our government has been doing to us! I could give to two flying fu*ks about any of the islanders around Australia at the moment, we've got it far worse than any of them do. They're having a sook about resources, meanwhile we can't even work to pay bills or make ends meet.
@@AsttoScott That's a pretty ignorant, selfish comment mate. No doubt things are hard for some Australians at the moment, and the government has been shafting us pretty hard in some areas. But fuck you're comparing that to living on an impoverished and comparatively undemocratic island. Even your average high end worker in east timor earns less USD than a dole bludger in Australia.

As an Indonesian myself i blamed our dictator soeharto for so willingly dancing into the westerner's tune and got ourselves involved into the whole east timor shenanigans, We shouldve STAYED AWAY from the beginning.
Edit: for any of you who still have no idea about it, the western allies not only knew about the incoming indonesian invansion in the 70's, they also endorsed and supported it.

"The strong do what they can, and the weak suffer what they must."
To the extent that Australian policymakers have followed this precept, it has caused a massive stain on our history. After fighting the Japanese alongside us, then getting beat up standing between us and Indonesia and the metaphorical liquor cabinet, I don't think we've done enough to make up for it. Who knows if we ever will. The irony of communists gaining a foothold on our doorstep after all serves us right.

9:13 "200000 east timorese...were deprived of their existence"
That is one way to say it.
And now australia trying the same tactic to separate east timor from indonesia to other indoneaian teritory. West papua
The goal? Natural resource such as natural gas and rare earths
That’s what most big and powerful nations have been doing even though the emphasise on rules-based order. They use the rules when it is in their favour, and work against the rules when they feel the need to.
Rules for you, but not for me.
And then Canberra acts outraged when China does the same. At least the Chinese have an equally long maritime history as their neighbors in the South China Sea. Australia was not a thing until ~200 years ago and the Aboriginals were adapted to continental life, not big seafarers. The Timor Sea belongs to the Timorese and Indonesians who had even a word for the (today) shallow sea. They called it Sahul. It is actually a submerged landmass like the Doggerbank between Denmark and England. The knowledge of that former landmass in the word Sahul proves Timor's claim.

@@AsttoScott Maybe not in terms of hard power (military confrontations), but definitely in terms of soft power.

Soft power is nice, but without overwhelming Hard power it's useless.
Basically yes.
No its not. WHat's power ? The ability to make others act the way you want. And to do so, looking nice and cool is as effective as pointing a gun at other's head. You want an example ? European hostility to Turkey is largely due to Greece's soft power.
Without the capacity to commit violence you will always be beholden to those who do
@@alioshax7797 it has nothing to do with greece's 'soft power' - they don't have much of it, especially after the economic collapse. it has to a lot do with USA and france's fear of turkey becoming too powerful and influential and thus supporting countries and groups (greece, separatist movements in turkey, political dissidents etc) that will keep turkey distracted and fragment their ability to engage in any one issue with focus.
@@the80386 Soft power isn't related to the economy, that's the point. In Europe, Greece's soft power is insane (I'm not Greek or anything, by the way), through its history. Socrates, Pythagore, Thales, Sophocles, many fields of "western culture" are percieved as greek inventions. That's why, in the XIX century, lord Byron and European intellectuals heavily supported Greek war of independance while remaining mostly neutral about Serbian own fight for independance. Greece, although being today just a second zone country with a poor economy, is still, at least in my country France, percieved as the "birthplace of Europe" and thus has a prestige that its economical and political situation can't explain.
And when it comes to Turkey, of course there is also political factors explaining the current situation, but not only.

Thank you so much for this report. For years Australia always blame Indonesia and act as if they are innocent. As an Indonesian, I understand that we are not angle. But watching Australia medias narrate their heroic story saving east Timor was really annoying.
it was more Australia regretting agreeing to annexation after watching Indonesia brutally oppress and murder Timorese civiilians for 20 odd years
The Australian public demanded the ADF do something about Indonesian genocide in East Timor in 1999. Much of the motivation was because the average Australia was embarrassed by what happened in the 1970s. Indonesia started shelling villages with artillery and naval gunfire, despite there being absolutely no military opposition. They then executed Australian journalists in front of East Timorese witnesses. Australians were still angry about Indonesia's behaviour, years later. So, troops were sent in 1999 to prevent a similar thing happening. Despite Indonesia saying it would leave East Timor without violence, it still sent KOPASUS troops (dressed in wigs!) to try to start an insurgency against Australian forces and East Timor, pro-independence elements. It has shown the Australian public that trusting Indonesia is not something Australia should do. As an interesting side note, the only fresh water production on the island was at the Coca Cola factory, owned by the Indonesian General who was over-seeing the genocide. He later tried to submit a legal claim to get his factory back but I guess he realised if he went to East Timor to press his claim, he would be tried for murder.
@@N17C1 bla bla bla. And indonesian public should not trust australian government. After all they steal East Timor oil. Australian public is always ignorant and act innocent most of the time.
@@liamknight2662They didn't regret. They just changed their tactics. The invasion of East Timor was supported by USA as it was about crushing communism in that area. And you know to which country, Australian diplomacy was steered into.

@@dasbubba841 Well, maybe not prosperous, but it definitely can make a country rich, especially if it has large reserves with a small population. All Gulf countries, Norway, and Brunei are examples of that.

Dulu australia yang meminta Indonesia untuk menyerang timor timur untuk melawan komunis fretilin, setelah menemukan minyak, mereka juga yang memprovokasi timor untuk memberontak melawan Indonesia, mereka juga menyudutkan dan menjelekan Indonesia di depan dunia hingga Indonesia diembargo. Mereka tidak peduli pada rakyat timor, yang mereka inginkan hanya minyak timor, mereka tau kalau merebut minyak dari Indonesia akan sangat sulit, dan seperti biasanya anglo-saxon ahlinya dalam tipu muslihat .. Sekarang, australia menyebut Indonesia sebagai sahabat dekat karena mereka takut diserang China .. Munafik🤧
I like seeing this point of view, what we see on mainstream media in New Zealand is not what this shows. 👍
It's such a smear on our Australian reputation that this had happened. I won't forget this and I hope one day, we can make up for it in the future for East Timor and be a proper neighbour.
What about the genocide Australia committed against indigenous people, murdering 98% of the population, sold them to slavery and human zoo's. Destroyed their culture, language, tradition, religion and only when they finished the job they established some fake organizations and charities that 'now' somehow protects indigenous people. Fake democracy...
@@mladendjukic1061 That was from before. We did not murder 98% of the people and we did not create human zoos. Now there are many organisations and some government subsidised that promote indigenous culture, language and tradition and social welfare. There are many indigenous Australian museums, and natives typically enjoy better opportunities for education and moving to cities. These are not fake, feel free to come to Australia and see for yourself rather than reading stuff from the internet. By the way, my parents were migrants from China in 1990s, so we had nothing to do with that, and neither does any of the current generation of Australia regardless of their race.
@@theholyasdf3593 i didn't say you have to do anything with that, i said Australia meaning government. That was before? How much time before? It was only 15 years ago when the genocide stoped, educate yourself a little about this topic before you even comment anything. Those agencies, charities and other organizations are fake because they are only established to show fake narrative of how caring and democratic Australia is. They only exist for damage control now that majority of indegenios people are eradicated, so now they don't have any political power with the numbers they have now, wich is less then 3%. They became minority on their own land. About the human Zoo's i didn't say Australia had them, I said they sold people to human Zoos, in Europe. But sure defend the undefendable..
@@mladendjukic1061 Nope. These are genuine welfare systems that part of the government. If you are Aborigine, you are paid to look for a job. If you are Aborigine, you are paid to study to become a mechanic, plumber, carpenter etc. If you are Aborigine, you are paid to have children. If you are Aborigine, you are paid. If you Aborigine and have any disability or are isolated and cannot access schools cause you live in remote areas, you are also paid for that. And that's just the money, as an Aborigine, you are entitled to various services from raising a family, domestic violence, mental health, travelling, housing education usually provided by local institutions/centrelink who can most easily get in touch with the local community
This is the government you decry for genocide. Genocide is too broad of a term, all the Aborigine massacres in the 1900s and later were not conduct by the government, but perhaps by local authorities representing local government. While heinous, they are recognised and honored with remembrance. It honestly disappoints me that you would call all this fake. Who even has time for that? It's not even logistically sound. Have you really thought about what an enormous waste of tax money it is to run a fake one and how much easier it is to run a real one? Stop and think for a second mate. People here actually care and if you doubt, feel free to come over when the lockdowns are over and see with your own eyes
Doesn't sound convincing. Sound like white washing! And accusing China of genocide while hiding its own genocide against its natives population whether committed by the state or province is still considered as being committed in the same house!
Big respect for providing deep analysis on pretty peripheral and seemingly minor, but interesting geopolitical issues from around the world!

Poor east timor, they do not realize that indonesia actually support them so much with infrastructure , food and education, so huge budget spent for them but after they separated there were no support anymore and see now ? hunger is everywhere, australia and portugese left them and you know what, now it is indonesia who support them with infrastructure development (this content didnt mention development had been done before china coming, it is indonesia investment not china), food, even job. ASEAN members reject them but it is indonesia who fight for their membership. They cant see what really happening and then their suffer because of australia and portugese greed.
While sign a contract deal with australia over the oil before invaded Timor, that's what you call protecting?
