It brought down the government of Sir Julius Chan, and took Papua New Guinea to the verge of a military revolt. The event was named after Sandline International, a UK-based private military company force.

  • Die Sandline-Affäre war ein politischer Skandal in Papua-Neuguinea um einen Anfang 1997 geschlossenen Kontrakt des Staates mit dem privaten Sicherheits- und Militärunternehmen Sandline International zur militärischen Lösung des Konflikts um Bougainville. Der Kommandeur der regulären Streitkräfte, die mit den Söldnern zusammenarbeiten sollten, ließ stattdessen in der Vorbereitungsphase das Sandline-Personal festsetzen. In der Folge kam es zu Unruhen, die Papua-Neuguinea an den Rand einer Staatskrise führten. Während die Sandline-Affäre die Regierung von Premierminister Julius Chan zum Rücktritt zwang, bedeuteten die Ereignisse in Bezug auf Bougainville einen Wendepunkt – der Konflikt konnte infolge der Affäre beigelegt werden.

  • The Sandline affair was a political scandal that became one of the defining moments in the history of Papua New Guinea, and particularly the conflict in Bougainville. It brought down the government of Sir Julius Chan, and took Papua New Guinea to the verge of a military revolt. The event was named after Sandline International, a UK-based private military company force. After coming to power in mid-1994, Prime Minister Chan made repeated attempts to resolve the Bougainville conflict by diplomatic means. These were ultimately unsuccessful, due to the repeated failure of Bougainvillean leaders Francis Ona, Sam Kauona and Joseph Kabui to arrive at scheduled peace talks. In November 1994, Chan attempted to set up the Bougainville Transitional Government, under a moderate Bougainvillean, Theodore Miriung. However, this too was doomed to failure, as Ona, Kauona, Kabui and others all chose not to take part. This was the last straw for Chan, and he decided to resolve the conflict using military force.
