It is essential that the role of journalists and the media is respected as independent from the conflict.

There is a cruel systematic attack on the rights of individual journalists and editors under way in China. The aim is to silence voices that seek the truth.

The international community should universally condemn China's record as a repressor of journalists' rights and its misuse of laws with the aim of suffocating criticism. China wants to be a major player on the world stage but when it attacks journalists in such a concerted manner it demonstrates that it is a country where the truth is not able to be told.

The repression of all those daring to resist the autocratic regime represents a severe challenge to the restoration of democracy in Nepal.

Intimidation of journalists such as the searching of a newspaper office is an attempt at intimidating the media against a pro Tamil nationalism editorial stance.

This blatant violation of the right of the Nepali people to peaceful assembly and democratic dissent must immediately cease.

2005 was a year of tragedy and the targeting of journalists in the Asia-Pacific region.

We are very concerned about the situation in Nepal which seems to be deteriorating rapidly. In the lead up to the one year anniversary of the February 1 coup, civil liberty abuses are still occurring and the Nepalese people's rights to freedom of expression and a free press are being violently and deplorably ignored.

The events of the last 24 hours are appalling and intolerable. The violent intervention of police and the targeting of journalists during peaceful protests is totally unacceptable.

While this decision sets an important precedent in the trying of defamation cases, it is only the beginning. In order for journalists to be protected from serving jail time, the decision to use the Press Law and not the penal code when involving the media must be used by all Indonesian courts.

While this is a landmark crucial step in our campaign to abolish criminal defamation in Indonesia, we still have more work to do.

Freedom of the press is a pre-requisite for the peaceful resolution of conflict, and restricting the media from carrying out its professional activities can only lead to more suspicion and misinformation.

We urge the President of India not to give his assent to this undemocratic legislation, and initiate public debate on the complex causes of conflict, rather than treat it as a law and order problem.

It is unacceptable for the government to be warning media sources to report only one side of the emergency.

Restrictions on foreign journalists represent a blatant violation of this right and seriously curtail the ability of the world's media to report in West Papua.
