JAKARTA - Mobs of indigenous Dayaks torched more homes in Borneo yesterday as security forces made their first attempt to seize weapons and stop the slaughter of Madurese immigrants.
Screaming "Long live the Dayaks!" mobs swept through the outskirts of the Central Kalimantan capital, Palangkaraya, witnesses said, burning homes abandoned by Madurese. A military spokesman said special forces troops from the Army's airborne unit would soon be sent into Borneo, although he did not say when. The Army's feared Kopassus special forces would not be dispatched, as some local media reported, he added.
