Aceh tsunami tragedy and aceh peace

The other side of the aceh tsunami tragedy and aceh peace.

GAM rebels vow the imminent cease-fire won't stop them working for an independent Aceh. But how has the Tsunami affected their chance of success?

"It may be peace or it may be war but we will still mobilise our forces," states Commander Muharram, GAM's top leader in North Aceh
