Ahead of the simultaneous Regional Head and Deputy Regional Head Elections (Pilkada) throughout Indonesia, especially in West Papua, the escalation of hoax news continues to increase on social media. People are asked not to swallow raw, irresponsible information circulating on social media.
Chairman of IJTI Pengda West Papua Chanry Andrew Suripatty said the public should not be taken in hoax information, ahead of the simultaneous regional elections in West Papua. Do not swallow the information circulating on social media, which cannot be justified.
According to Chanry, in the upcoming simultaneous regional elections, West Papua will also carry out the annual democratic party. There are 9 districts in West Papua that will hold the democratic party.
Chanry Suripatty deeply regrets, currently people prefer information obtained from social media, to news that is presented through online media which is a journalistic work. Even though the accuracy of data and information from social media cannot be justified.
This MNC Media Group correspondent also hopes that media and journalists in West Papua must maintain neutrality, integrity and uphold the journalistic code of ethics. Especially before the simultaneous post-conflict local elections on 9 December 2020.
