Indonesia: Australia and US Need to Clean Up Their Mess

Indonesia has said Australia and America need to clean up their mess to
salvage relations with Indonesia after revelations that Australia spied on
a law firm representing Indonesia in a trade dispute.
.
New documents from whistleblower Edward Snowden reveal that the Australian
Signals Directorate (ASD) spied on an American law firm representing
Indonesia in a trade dispute and offered the information to America, the
New York Times reported on Sunday.
.
Indonesian presidential adviser and spokesman on foreign affairs, Teuku
Faizasyah, said the president had been advised of the revelations by
foreign minister Marty Natalegawa.
.
Indeed, it is another perplexing revelation of spying toward Indonesias
national interest, he told Guardian Australia via text message.
.
I wonder what more Snowden has in store? Therefore, it is the
responsibility of countries (US & Australia) engaged in this complicity to
clean up the mess, to salvage their bilateral relations with Indonesia.
.
Prime minister Tony Abbott said it was a longstanding practice of all
Australian governments not to comment on intelligence matters, but that
the country did not spy for commercial purposes.
.

.
Negotiations are ongoing between Australia and Indonesia to set up a code
of ethics between the countries after Guardian Australia and ABC reported
last year that Australia had tapped the phone of Indonesias president and
his inner circle, including his wife.
.
The documents used in the latest reports came from whistleblower Edward
Snowden and also revealed that Americans mentored Australians on how to
crack encrypted communication used by Papua New Guinea in 2003 and that
America had given Australia access to mass cell data from Indonesia, which
included information on officials working in ministries.
.
Greens senator Scott Ludlam said Australia was being used for corporate
and economic surveillance that had nothing to do with national security.
.
He said the latest documents were helping expose how enmeshed Australia is
in a global surveillance network and in helping other countries to
circumvent their own laws.
.
This uncovers the degree to which agencies and surveillance powers are
being used for economic and corporate espionage, which has nothing to do
with national security, he said.
.
I suspect this is going to further degrade the trust between Indonesia and
Australia, he said.
This is not targeted espionage, this is not breaking up terror cells, its
wholesale vacuuming of metadata involving ordinary people and it is not
clear to me, or many people, how this improves the ability to find people
who are legitimate intelligence targets.
