AAI, CFI and IHEU criticise "World Statesmen Award" for Indonesian President

Written by administrator | 10 May 2013

Atheist Alliance International (AAI), the Center for Inquiry (CFI) the International Humanist and Ethical Union (IHEU) are dismayed that the Appeal of Conscience Foundation has decided to award Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono the World Statesmen Award at its 2013 Special Awards Dinner. Indonesia's record on human rights and religious freedom is very poor and, as President, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono bears a significant degree of responsibility for the situation. We urge the Appeal of Conscience Foundation to re-consider this decision and alter its processes so that a similar mistake is not made in the future.

AAI, CFI and IHEU have campaigned specifically in the case of Alexander Aan, an Indonesian atheist who was attacked and arrested after posting 'there is no God' on Facebook in 2012, and notes that there are many cases of abuse against religious minorities in Indonesia, as documented by a February 2013 report by Human Rights Watch (Aan's case is mentioned on page 81). Human Rights Watch described President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono as "inconsistent at best in defending the right to religious freedom".

Come to the World Atheist Convention in Dublin, Ireland!

Comment by lt_zippy2 on November 27, 2010 at 3:52am: Justin, The next convention near the UK will be in Dublin next year, but I don't think there have been any formal announcements about it yet.

Comment by Shelley on November 24, 2010 at 11:30am: Justin - When there is information on future conventions available, it will be here: http://www.atheistalliance.org/programs/conventions I don't think AAI's membership cost is too steep... it includes a subscription to an amazing publication - "Secular Nation." Our local organization (in DC) has a $35/year fee without a publication.

Comment by justin gold on November 24, 2010 at 11:13am: is there a list for future conventions,as id like to know when the next nearest one to or in the u.k will be.been on the web page and couldn't see any info,also i thought the cost of joining was a bit steep,what do other members of nexus think?cheers justin

Comment by Heather McIntosh on October 24, 2010 at 1:05pm: Mike,

Unfortunately, there can't be a convention in Jakarta at this time, but the Arab Atheist Network is in the process of planning a conference to be held on the island of Malta.

Comment by Mike McDonald on October 21, 2010 at 6:20pm: It would be nice to see an atheist convention here in Jakarta.
Unfortunately the peace loving, open minded extremist groups here would be attacking them like they did the gay rights convention what actually had to be shut down.
The more 'faithful', dedicated and extreme a religious follower is it seems, the less able they are to withstand challenges to their faith. Anything here that might make the brainwashed recognize their brainwashing is quickly averted.

Comment by Chuck VonDerAhe on September 29, 2010 at 7:54pm: Jay, check out the schedule of speakers and events. Doesn't look like there will be time for any "extra curricular activities" on Saturday before the show.

Comment by JayBarti on September 29, 2010 at 5:14pm: I am really looking forward to this upcoming weekend. I haven't been to an actual convention since Worldcon came to Toronto.

Sadly I will not be getting into Montreal until about 1-2 pm on Friday, so I might miss some of the starting stuff.

On another note:

Is there any plans for a pre-meetup for A|N people before Saturday night. Maybe we could meet someplace early before the Comedy Showcase (I got my ticket) on Friday.

Hmmm, who knows Montreal well enough to suggest some place?

P.S. Looking forward as well to having a Schwartz's deli Smoked meat sandwich and some Montreal poutine.
