Jubilee Scotland: "Cancel Indonesia's Arms Debt"

From 14th -19th October, Jubilee Campaigners north of the border kept a vigil for the cancellation of Indonesia's debts incurred by General Suharto when he bought aircraft and tanks, used to repress his own people, from the UK.




Rising before dawn each day and only leaving their prime position on Princes Street after sundown, the group drew in more supporters each day.

Hundreds of members of the public who passed the vigil, stopped to sign a petition for Alistair Darling demanding that the UK "cancel these debts to end this terrible injustice". It was delivered to the Chancellor of the Exchequer on friday morning and campaigners are waiting for his response.
