Students remembered

Thousands of students, including 3000 from Trisakti University, rallied on May 12 to remember the four student activists killed by Indonesian soldiers on May 12, 1998. The four were architecture student Elang Mulya Lesmana, economics student Henriawan Sie, industrial engineering student Hafidhin Royan and mechanical engineering student Hery Hartanto. As students from the People's Democratic Party travelled to visit the slain students' graves, they were stopped several times by soldiers and official militia.

about GLW - the need for alternative media

In these days of growing media concentration, Green Left Weekly is a proudly independent voice committed to human and civil rights, global peace and environmental sustainability, democracy and equality. By printing the news and ideas the mainstream media won't, Green Left Weekly exposes the lies and distortions of the power brokers and helps us to better understand the world around us.

Green Left Weekly, launched in 1990 by progressive activists to present the views excluded by the big business media, is now Australia's leading source of local, national and international news, analysis, and discussion and debate to strengthen the anti-capitalist movements.
