This week world leaders met in Paris to kick-off a two-week climate change summit, a meeting some say will determine the future viability of human civilisation on our planet. JUST ASIA looks at the implications for Asia from a human rights perspective.
Next, JUST ASIA reports on the violent arrests of Papuans during a peaceful protest in Jakarta, Indonesia. The Papuans were publicly marking their independence from colonial rule.
In India, a controversial former Supreme Court judge, Markandey Katju, has slammed Prime Minister Modi and the justice institutions in India in a straight-talking TV interview. JUST ASIA brings viewers excerpts of the interview.
Finally, JUST ASIA catches up with Basil Fernando to get the latest on his recent visit to Sri Lanka, where he held workshops and seminars for lawyers, prison officials, and human rights defenders to assist his home country in its long road back to a functioning rule of law culture.

In this first episode of Just Asia in 2016, AHRC TV covers stories of disappearances and shrinking spaces for the freedom of expression.
However, first up, the programme reports on the conclusion of a rape case in Sri Lanka, more than 14 years after the case began being heard. Rita, unlike many other rape victims, was able to persevere through a decade and a half long trial through courage, determination, and dedicated support from human rights organisations. Today, justice has been served; the perpetrators have been convicted and sentenced to 23 years in prison.
Next, Just Asia reports on the mysterious case of disappearing book publishers in Hong Kong. A fifth person linked to the same publishing house, which publishes books critical of the Communist Party of China, has apparently been picked up from the streets of Hong Kong and taken across the border to mainland China illegally. Agnes Chow from the pro-democracy group Scholarism talks about what this means for the future of Hong Kong’s Basic Law and the concept of “One Country Two Systems”, which guarantee freedoms and civil rights to Hong Kongers, denied to people across the border.
Another well-known case of enforced disappearance in Asia has reached its final verdict. Thai human rights lawyer Somchai Neelapaijit was abducted and disappeared from a street in Bangkok in 2004. No remains have been found and, as a result, the Supreme Court of Thailand has now decided that no one can be held responsible for the missing lawyer, as there is no evidence of his death or injury. The previous acquittal of the five police officers who have been implicated in Somchai’s disappearance was therefore upheld by the Court.
Finally, Just Asia marks the one year anniversary of the gruesome massacre of Charlie Hebdo cartoonists in Paris by Islamic militants, by noting that the last year has seen a shrinking space for free expression – including the right to offend – worldwide.
PEN International, along with a number of free expression organisations and writers, has published an open letter voicing great concern.

In this episode of Just Asia, AHRC TV reports from Sri Lanka where the police still appear to consider themselves above the law. Police officers in Embilipitiya killed a young man and authorities responded by simply re-locating the perpetrators to other stations rather than investigating the crime.
Just Asia continues to report about the missing book publishers in Hong Kong, suspected to have been illegally snatched by Mainland China secret police. Thousands of people marched in protest last Sunday and prominent politicians and celebrities have expressed their fear for the future of the city.
Next, Just Asia caught up with Bangladeshi human rights defender Adilur Rahman Khan who expresses great concern for democracy and the rule of law in his country. The space available for human rights defenders to do their jobs is now virtually non-existent.
In Indonesia, Jakarta’s governor has gone ahead with a forced eviction of more than 500 people in Bukit Duri in South Jakarta, despite its residents filing a case in court. According to Indonesia’s law, the court case must be allowed to conclude before any contested eviction can take place.
Finally, the sister of murdered backpacker Hanna Witheridge has strongly condemned the Thai investigation and conviction of two Burmese migrant workers. She claims the majority of Thai police are corrupt and that the two Burmese men are in fact scapegoats, framed to avoid tainting Thailand as a tourist paradise.

In this episode of Just Asia, AHRC TV continues its coverage of the saga of the missing Hong Kong book publishers. One of the five abducted men, Gui Minhai, has turned up on Chinese State television making a “confession” for a years-old alleged drink driving offence.
Gui vanished three months ago from holiday in Thailand and there is apparently no record of him having left that country, leading to suspicions of Chinese agents acting illegally outside of their jurisdictions. Similarly, Lee Bo, who disappeared from the streets of Hong Kong, has finally been confirmed to be in China, also without his travel documents, and with no record showing that he crossed the border.
In related news, Swedish human rights activist, Peter Dahlin, was recently arrested in Beijing, accused of endangering China’s security through his organisation’s support of human rights lawyers. Dahlin was also paraded on State television making a “confession”.
Next, Just Asia reports on the continuing protests and violence in the Terai region in southern Nepal; the police have killed more demonstrating protesters.
Bangladesh’s Chief Justice has publicly urged legal professionals in the country to do more to defend judicial powers. Chief Justice Surendra Kumar Sinha warned that the Executive branch is usurping the powers of the Judiciary, allowing an authoritarian system to emerge in place of democracy.
Finally, the Indonesian military has demanded arrest powers in the wake of the terrorist attack in Jakarta. The AHRC cautions against such moves, which could increase the number of cases of illegal arrests and torture.

In this episode, Just Asia continues to cover critical human rights flashpoints in Asia.
In Pakistan, three employees of Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) have been killed in clashes near the Jinnah International Airport, Karachi, on February 3. The employees were on a countrywide protest against privatization of the national airlines. Around 30 persons have also been injured, including two women and five journalists, when Pakistan Rangers resorted to baton charges and fired water cannons and rubber bullets.
Staying in Pakistan, Just Asia turns to the annual report of the Freedom Network, an independent Pakistani media and civil liberties watchdog, on the state of the media. According to the report, “The year 2015 proved to be the year of censorship for media in Pakistan.” While 2014 was the most murderous year for press freedom, with 14 journalists killed, the year 2015 has seen a dramatic rise in censorship, states the report.
The programme then pans to Indonesia, where residents of Sukamulya Village, Rumpin Sub-district, Bogor Regency, have been fighting for their land and houses since 2007. The Indonesian Air Force has claimed over 1,070 hectares of land in Sukamulya that belongs to the villagers. The latest protest against this injustice was held in front of the Bogor Regency Office on 29 January 2016.
Next, Just Asia covers the suicide of young Dalit scholar, Mr. Rohith Vemula. Rohith chose to end his life after facing discrimination from the management of the Hyderabad University. Rohith’s suicide is yet another example of the continuing domination that suppresses the less privileged communities in India, particularly the Dalits.
For the past six months, life in Nepal has been at a standstill. The Himalayan nation has undergone a protracted blockade and faces an impending humanitarian crisis. Markets are closed and vehicular movement is stopped. Schools and hospitals barely function in Nepal’s Terai region, due to the ongoing border blockade initiated by the Madhesi groups and supported by the Indian establishment. To cover the latest, Just Asia speaks with Dipendra Jha, Advocate, Supreme Court of Nepal, and Member, Madhesi Think Tank group.

This week’s episode of Just Asia focuses on Hong Kong, where the first day of the Lunar New Year saw violent clashes between protesters and police. The unrest caused shock and increased the sense of uncertainty lingering in the wake of the disappearance of five booksellers in January.
The violence erupted overnight as police attempted to shut down unlicensed food stalls in Mong Kok District. Police fired live warning shots into the air as demonstrators and activists set fire to rubbish bins and hurled stones and bricks at officers. Over 64 people were arrested, for offences of unlawful assembly, assaulting police, and possession of offensive weapons. This is the worst episode of visible unrest for decades, and showcases deterioration of trust between the public and the police, and the growing rift between sections of the population and the government.
From this story, Just Asia turns to the continuing discussion about the disappearance of five Hong Kong booksellers. One of them, Mr. Lee Bo, was abducted from Hong Kong and remains missing until today. Not only are people concerned about the pattern of abductions, but also with the direct threat to Hong Kong’s freedom of speech and expression. Just Asia joins Hong Kong Barrister Y.L. Cheung and Solicitor John Joseph Clancey for their commentary on the implications of the missing booksellers.

In this week’s episode, Just Asia covers the commemoration of the 1989 Talangsari Massacre in Indonesia. Although the Talangsari Massacre was mentioned by President Widodo as one of his government’s priorities, until now no concrete solution has been provided.
Next, Just Asia looks at the unrest at India’s prestigious Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU). The unrest began after a group of students commemorated the death anniversary of Afzal Guru, and called his hanging a judicial murder. To learn more, AHRC TV interviewed former JNU student Avinash Pandey.
Moving to Nepal, Just Asia caught up with Sabitri Shrestha, who has been fighting for justice for her sister for the past 17 years. Ujjan Kumar Shrestha was murdered by Maoist leader Balkrishna Dhungel in 1998.
From Pakistan, Just Asia reports that nine activists were recovered after 22 days of disappearance.
Finally, Just Asia introduces a new feature: a brief report on weekly human rights violations across Asia. The AHRC’s Urgent Appeals system was created to give voice and support to those affected by rights violations. This week’s Urgent Appeals include a police officer murdered in India for doing his job, the lack of outcome in the police investigation in the Tolikara violence, Papua, and a human rights defender summoned for questioning by the Indonesian police regarding his statement on a TV talk show.

According to the report, “The year 2015 proved to be the year of censorship for media in Pakistan.” While 2014 was the most murderous year for press freedom, with 14 journalists killed, the year 2015 has seen a dramatic rise in censorship, states the report. The programme then pans to Indonesia, where residents of Sukamulya Village, Rumpin Sub-district, Bogor Regency, have been fighting for their land and houses since 2007. The Indonesian Air Force has claimed over 1,070 hectares of land in Sukamulya that belongs to the villagers. The latest protest against this injustice was held in front of the Bogor Regency Office on 29 January 2016. Next, Just Asia covers the suicide of young Dalit scholar, Mr. Rohith Vemula. Rohith chose to end his life after facing discrimination from the management of the Hyderabad University. Rohith’s suicide is yet another example of the continuing domination that suppresses the less privileged communities in India, particularly the Dalits. For the past six months, life in Nepal has been at a standstill. The Himalayan nation has undergone a protracted blockade and faces an impending humanitarian crisis. Markets are closed and vehicular movement is stopped. Schools and hospitals barely function in Nepal’s Terai region, due to the ongoing border blockade initiated by the Madhesi groups and supported by the Indian establishment. To cover the latest, Just Asia speaks with Dipendra Jha, Advocate, Supreme Court of Nepal, and Member, Madhesi Think Tank group. -
AHRC TV: JUST ASIA, Episode 109
This week’s episode of Just Asia focuses on Hong Kong, where the first day of the Lunar New Year saw violent clashes between protesters and police. The unrest caused shock and increased the sense of uncertainty lingering in the wake of the disappearance of five booksellers in January. The violence erupted overnight as police attempted to shut down unlicensed food stalls in Mong Kok District. Police fired live warning shots into the air as demonstrators and activists set fire to rubbish bins and hurled stones and bricks at officers. Over 64 people were arrested, for offences of unlawful assembly, assaulting police, and possession of offensive weapons. This is the worst episode of visible unrest for decades, and showcases deterioration of trust between the public and the police, and the growing rift between sections of the population and the government. From this story, Just Asia turns to the continuing discussion about the disappearance of five Hong Kong booksellers. One of them, Mr. Lee Bo, was abducted from Hong Kong and remains missing until today. Not only are people concerned about the pattern of abductions, but also with the direct threat to Hong Kong’s freedom of speech and expression. Just Asia joins Hong Kong Barrister Y.L. Cheung and Solicitor John Joseph Clancey for their commentary on the implications of the missing booksellers. -
AHRC TV: JUST ASIA, Episode 110
In this week’s episode, Just Asia covers the commemoration of the 1989 Talangsari Massacre in Indonesia. Although the Talangsari Massacre was mentioned by President Widodo as one of his government’s priorities, until now no concrete solution has been provided. Next, Just Asia looks at the unrest at India’s prestigious Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU). The unrest began after a group of students commemorated the death anniversary of Afzal Guru, and called his hanging a judicial murder. To learn more, AHRC TV interviewed former JNU student Avinash Pandey. Moving to Nepal, Just Asia caught up with Sabitri Shrestha, who has been fighting for justice for her sister for the past 17 years. Ujjan Kumar Shrestha was murdered by Maoist leader Balkrishna Dhungel in 1998. From Pakistan, Just Asia reports that nine activists were recovered after 22 days of disappearance. Finally, Just Asia introduces a new feature: a brief report on weekly human rights violations across Asia. The AHRC’s Urgent Appeals system was created to give voice and support to those affected by rights violations. This week’s Urgent Appeals include a police officer murdered in India for doing his job, the lack of outcome in the police investigation in the Tolikara violence, Papua, and a human rights defender summoned for questioning by the Indonesian police regarding his statement on a TV talk show. -

Comics and World Wars; A Cultural Record
This film by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC), is shining a light on a fascinating research project that reveals how long-forgotten comic strips from 1914-18 contributed to the origins of modern international popular culture -- both military and civilian. Professor Jane Chapman and her team of researchers at the University of Lincoln are uncovering comics from the UK, Europe, Commonwealth countries, the USA, and exploring their unique depiction of epic events of the First World War and their influence on the public consciousness and cultural heritage. Examining attitudes to war as expressed through comics strips, as well as the various national, political and social tensions they conveyed, the researchers are uncovering the kind of views that comics offer in specific aspects of world war history. These sources can show a unique form of insight into depictions of heroes, enemy and victims. Amateur cartoon artists in the trenches had to beg and borrow paper; iodine and paint brushes, normally used by medics for wounds, were sometimes used to create comic strip colour. Professor Chapman adds: "these popular communications were the armed forces' Great War equivalent of today's mobile phone citizens' journalism'. -

In this first episode of Just Asia in 2016, AHRC TV covers stories of disappearances and shrinking spaces for the freedom of expression.
However, first up, the programme reports on the conclusion of a rape case in Sri Lanka, more than 14 years after the case began being heard. Rita, unlike many other rape victims, was able to persevere through a decade and a half long trial through courage, determination, and dedicated support from human rights organisations. Today, justice has been served; the perpetrators have been convicted and sentenced to 23 years in prison.
Next, Just Asia reports on the mysterious case of disappearing book publishers in Hong Kong. A fifth person linked to the same publishing house, which publishes books critical of the Communist Party of China, has apparently been picked up from the streets of Hong Kong and taken across the border to mainland China illegally. Agnes Chow from the pro-democracy group Scholarism talks about what this means for the future of Hong Kong’s Basic Law and the concept of “One Country Two Systems”, which guarantee freedoms and civil rights to Hong Kongers, denied to people across the border.
Another well-known case of enforced disappearance in Asia has reached its final verdict. Thai human rights lawyer Somchai Neelapaijit was abducted and disappeared from a street in Bangkok in 2004. No remains have been found and, as a result, the Supreme Court of Thailand has now decided that no one can be held responsible for the missing lawyer, as there is no evidence of his death or injury. The previous acquittal of the five police officers who have been implicated in Somchai’s disappearance was therefore upheld by the Court.
Finally, Just Asia marks the one year anniversary of the gruesome massacre of Charlie Hebdo cartoonists in Paris by Islamic militants, by noting that the last year has seen a shrinking space for free expression – including the right to offend – worldwide.
PEN International, along with a number of free expression organisations and writers, has published an open letter voicing great concern.

In this episode of Just Asia, AHRC TV reports from Sri Lanka where the police still appear to consider themselves above the law. Police officers in Embilipitiya killed a young man and authorities responded by simply re-locating the perpetrators to other stations rather than investigating the crime.
Just Asia continues to report about the missing book publishers in Hong Kong, suspected to have been illegally snatched by Mainland China secret police. Thousands of people marched in protest last Sunday and prominent politicians and celebrities have expressed their fear for the future of the city.
Next, Just Asia caught up with Bangladeshi human rights defender Adilur Rahman Khan who expresses great concern for democracy and the rule of law in his country. The space available for human rights defenders to do their jobs is now virtually non-existent.
In Indonesia, Jakarta’s governor has gone ahead with a forced eviction of more than 500 people in Bukit Duri in South Jakarta, despite its residents filing a case in court. According to Indonesia’s law, the court case must be allowed to conclude before any contested eviction can take place.
Finally, the sister of murdered backpacker Hanna Witheridge has strongly condemned the Thai investigation and conviction of two Burmese migrant workers. She claims the majority of Thai police are corrupt and that the two Burmese men are in fact scapegoats, framed to avoid tainting Thailand as a tourist paradise.

In this episode of Just Asia, AHRC TV continues its coverage of the saga of the missing Hong Kong book publishers. One of the five abducted men, Gui Minhai, has turned up on Chinese State television making a “confession” for a years-old alleged drink driving offence.
Gui vanished three months ago from holiday in Thailand and there is apparently no record of him having left that country, leading to suspicions of Chinese agents acting illegally outside of their jurisdictions. Similarly, Lee Bo, who disappeared from the streets of Hong Kong, has finally been confirmed to be in China, also without his travel documents, and with no record showing that he crossed the border.
In related news, Swedish human rights activist, Peter Dahlin, was recently arrested in Beijing, accused of endangering China’s security through his organisation’s support of human rights lawyers. Dahlin was also paraded on State television making a “confession”.
Next, Just Asia reports on the continuing protests and violence in the Terai region in southern Nepal; the police have killed more demonstrating protesters.
Bangladesh’s Chief Justice has publicly urged legal professionals in the country to do more to defend judicial powers. Chief Justice Surendra Kumar Sinha warned that the Executive branch is usurping the powers of the Judiciary, allowing an authoritarian system to emerge in place of democracy.
Finally, the Indonesian military has demanded arrest powers in the wake of the terrorist attack in Jakarta. The AHRC cautions against such moves, which could increase the number of cases of illegal arrests and torture.

In this episode, Just Asia continues to cover critical human rights flashpoints in Asia.
In Pakistan, three employees of Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) have been killed in clashes near the Jinnah International Airport, Karachi, on February 3. The employees were on a countrywide protest against privatization of the national airlines. Around 30 persons have also been injured, including two women and five journalists, when Pakistan Rangers resorted to baton charges and fired water cannons and rubber bullets.
Staying in Pakistan, Just Asia turns to the annual report of the Freedom Network, an independent Pakistani media and civil liberties watchdog, on the state of the media. According to the report, “The year 2015 proved to be the year of censorship for media in Pakistan.” While 2014 was the most murderous year for press freedom, with 14 journalists killed, the year 2015 has seen a dramatic rise in censorship, states the report.
The programme then pans to Indonesia, where residents of Sukamulya Village, Rumpin Sub-district, Bogor Regency, have been fighting for their land and houses since 2007. The Indonesian Air Force has claimed over 1,070 hectares of land in Sukamulya that belongs to the villagers. The latest protest against this injustice was held in front of the Bogor Regency Office on 29 January 2016.
Next, Just Asia covers the suicide of young Dalit scholar, Mr. Rohith Vemula. Rohith chose to end his life after facing discrimination from the management of the Hyderabad University. Rohith’s suicide is yet another example of the continuing domination that suppresses the less privileged communities in India, particularly the Dalits.
For the past six months, life in Nepal has been at a standstill. The Himalayan nation has undergone a protracted blockade and faces an impending humanitarian crisis. Markets are closed and vehicular movement is stopped. Schools and hospitals barely function in Nepal’s Terai region, due to the ongoing border blockade initiated by the Madhesi groups and supported by the Indian establishment.

This week’s episode of Just Asia focuses on Hong Kong, where the first day of the Lunar New Year saw violent clashes between protesters and police. The unrest caused shock and increased the sense of uncertainty lingering in the wake of the disappearance of five booksellers in January.
The violence erupted overnight as police attempted to shut down unlicensed food stalls in Mong Kok District. Police fired live warning shots into the air as demonstrators and activists set fire to rubbish bins and hurled stones and bricks at officers. Over 64 people were arrested, for offences of unlawful assembly, assaulting police, and possession of offensive weapons. This is the worst episode of visible unrest for decades, and showcases deterioration of trust between the public and the police, and the growing rift between sections of the population and the government.
From this story, Just Asia turns to the continuing discussion about the disappearance of five Hong Kong booksellers. One of them, Mr. Lee Bo, was abducted from Hong Kong and remains missing until today. Not only are people concerned about the pattern of abductions, but also with the direct threat to Hong Kong’s freedom of speech and expression. Just Asia joins Hong Kong Barrister Y.L.

In this week’s episode, Just Asia covers the commemoration of the 1989 Talangsari Massacre in Indonesia. Although the Talangsari Massacre was mentioned by President Widodo as one of his government’s priorities, until now no concrete solution has been provided.
Next, Just Asia looks at the unrest at India’s prestigious Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU). The unrest began after a group of students commemorated the death anniversary of Afzal Guru, and called his hanging a judicial murder. To learn more, AHRC TV interviewed former JNU student Avinash Pandey.
Moving to Nepal, Just Asia caught up with Sabitri Shrestha, who has been fighting for justice for her sister for the past 17 years. Ujjan Kumar Shrestha was murdered by Maoist leader Balkrishna Dhungel in 1998.
From Pakistan, Just Asia reports that nine activists were recovered after 22 days of disappearance.
Finally, Just Asia introduces a new feature: a brief report on weekly human rights violations across Asia. The AHRC’s Urgent Appeals system was created to give voice and support to those affected by rights violations. This week’s Urgent Appeals include a police officer murdered in India for doing his job, the lack of outcome in the police investigation in the Tolikara violence, Papua, and a human rights defender summoned for questioning by the Indonesian police regarding his statement on a TV talk show.

This film by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC), is shining a light on a fascinating research project that reveals how long-forgotten comic strips from 1914-18 contributed to the origins of modern international popular culture -- both military and civilian.
Professor Jane Chapman and her team of researchers at the University of Lincoln are uncovering comics from the UK, Europe, Commonwealth countries, the USA, and exploring their unique depiction of epic events of the First World War and their influence on the public consciousness and cultural heritage.
Examining attitudes to war as expressed through comics strips, as well as the various national, political and social tensions they conveyed, the researchers are uncovering the kind of views that comics offer in specific aspects of world war history. These sources can show a unique form of insight into depictions of heroes, enemy and victims.
Amateur cartoon artists in the trenches had to beg and borrow paper; iodine and paint brushes, normally used by medics for wounds, were sometimes used to create comic strip colour. Professor Chapman adds: "these popular communications were the armed forces' Great War equivalent of today's mobile phone citizens' journalism'.
