FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Woodside’s contentious Browse gas hub project in Western Australia’s Kimberley region is the subject of another native title wrangle, with an indigenous splinter group signing a fresh compensation deal.
It is understood the Jabir Jabir Goolarabooloo people have inked a new $1.3 billion compensation package comprising housing, land and jobs.
The previous native title deal, an agreement signed in 2009 by the Kimberley Land Council (KLC), Woodside and the WA government, was to provide $1.5 billion in benefits for Aboriginal communities over 30 years.
But the KLC last week applied to the Federal Court to discontinue the existing native title claim because the splinter group sought to lodge its own claim.
The KLC was established in 1978 following a dispute between the Kimberley region’s traditional owners, the state government, and an American oil company that wanted to do exploratory drilling on a sacred site at Noonkanbah.
The KLC claims to represent 90 per cent of indigenous people in the Kimberley region.
