Support the Implementation of OTSUS Volume Two for the Progress of Papua

The Papuan people who are members of the Harmony of Gathering of the People of East Java, support Special Autonomy (OTSUS), this was conveyed through a statement of attitude.

Previously, OTSUS Volume one had been carried out, and the Papuan people had felt its development and the attention of the government. However, the Papuan people smell nepotism in its implementation, therefore they hope that in the implementation of OTSUS Volume two later, there will be no more negative smell, and the Papuan people can feel the development of their area to the fullest.

This support was conveyed through a statement of attitude made by the Papuan Community who are members of the Harmony of Gathering of the People of East Java, the statement contained five points of which.

1. Support the implementation of Otsus Papua Volume II in the context of accelerating development and community welfare in Papua and West Papua

2. Papua Special Autonomy Volume II is a government program that must be supported in order to improve education, health, economy and infrastructure development, so that Papua becomes an advanced and equal province with other regions in Indonesia.

3. Provincial, Regency and City Governments throughout Papua to be professional and transparent in managing the use of Otsus Papua Volume II funds and not KKN in determining the target of Otsus Volume II recipients, especially education for Papuan and West Papuan children and Papuan children overseas .

4. Encouraging the government to immediately audit the Special Autonomy program for Papua Volume I, so that the Papuan people can find out whether the use of the funds is right on target or not, because the Special Autonomy Volume I program is only felt by certain people.

5. Urge the central government to establish an independent institution for assistance and supervision of the Special Autonomy program for Papua Volume II so that its distribution is truly targeted.

Robert. Y. Korwa, as a Papuan elder said, OTSUS must be supported because this is a government program that must be implemented, even though he considers the Papuan people to have never experienced it firsthand.

“In my opinion, OTSUS is a government program that must be supported, so that it can help our communities in Papua and West Papua, including us who are overseas. Because so far, we have never experienced OTSUS directly when compared to Papua," he said.

Meanwhile, Freek Christian, who is also an elder of the people of Biak, Papua, conveyed the same thing. He admitted that this OTSUS really helps the Papuan people, and it is hoped that this OTSUS can be felt by the Papuan people from remote areas in Papua.

"This OTSUS is very important and very helpful for the people in Papua, where everyone feels everything from OTSUS, maybe the implementation that we hope can be accepted by small communities, in remote areas of Papua, so they can enjoy this OTSUS, " he explained.

Furthermore, Christian pleaded with the government so that the implementation of this OTSUS can be monitored properly, so that the Papuan people can feel it all, "That we are part of the Papuan and West Papuan families who deserve and deserve to be part of this autonomy, ” he added.

Bram Asmuruf, added, OTSUS has many benefits for the people of Papua, when compared to Papua in the past and Papua now, the comparison is very far, but for its implementation it must be evaluated more, so that its implementation can be maximized.

"This OTSUS has many benefits, but unfortunately many do not reach the target, and the implementation of Volume two can be evaluated more, so that it can be good, useful, and achieve the target,"
