media - "No problem being an ethnic Chinese in Aceh"

Carolyn Liu, our brave reporter of the Oriental Morning Post, should not have have any problems with her being Chinese when she is in Aceh, writes Jim Hollington of the British Council in Shanghai in an email. The Apple Daily suggested yesterday Chinese in Aceh were fleeing massively.
"I know Aceh quite well, having lived in Indonesia eight years and been there four or five times," he writes. "She'll have no problem with being ethnic Chinese, my former partner was ethnic Chinese from Aceh - the ethnic tension there is between Acehnese and Javanese (the cause of the civil war)."
