Boycott Bali


Boycott Bali
The issue
HOW MANY SIGNATURES CAN WE GET IN 72 HOURS TO SEND TO THE INDONESIAN PRESIDENT?
Millions of Australians are sickened by the imminent execution of two of its citizens by Indonesia.
No date has been set for the killing of Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran, but Indonesia has said governments with citizens on death row have been invited to talks at the foreign ministry on Monday.
Chan, 31, and Sukumaran, 33, are facing execution by firing squad as early as this week as ring leaders of the so-called Bali Nine group trafficking heroin from Indonesia's island of Bali into Australia.
While all hope appears to be lost, prime minister Tony Abbott has stepped up & put pressure on Jakarta for the second day in a row.
Brazil and The Netherlands recalled their ambassadors in protest at executions of their citizens in January. Abbott has not said what Canberra's response would be.
Foreign Minister Julie Bishop last week warned Jakarta that Australians could boycott Indonesia, including the island of Bali, a popular holiday spot for its travelers.
Abbott also stepped up criticism of Indonesia for trying to save its own citizens on death row in other countries for drug trafficking while rejecting pleas from Australia.
There are 360 Indonesians on death row around the world, including in Malaysia, Singapore, China and Saudi Arabia, Australian media reported. Of that, 230 are on drug charges.
As time runs out for Chan and Sukumaran, attorneys-general from across each of Australia's states and territory have sent a joint letter to Indonesia's government asking they be spared, broadcaster ABC reported.
Their families are also due to be presented with a petition with more than 150,000 signatures urging clemency.
Chan and Sukumaran, who have been on death row since 2006, lost their appeals to President Joko Widodo, who has vowed a tough approach to ending what he has called Indonesia's "drug emergency".
Widodo has been a vocal supporter of capital punishment and recently executed six convicted drug smugglers.
These men do NOT deserve to die and have clearly been rehabilitated.
By signing this petition you are showing support for them as well as showing that we will crush Indonesia's tourism income and make them suffer which should in turn have their death penalty laws reviewed.
