Indonesia --> Separate states such as East Timor/West Papua

A POD that is recent (I'd say after 1990)
  • 2004 Tsunami?
  • 1999 East Timor Independence?

For those who don't know, the stuff that the Indonesians do to the Melanesian people of the area is atrocious, and should be stopped in real life. Could it realisticly get to a point where Australia (with US backing?) invade for peace and the succession of these states?

Any ideas on what areas would go, and how this could be realistic?
