The indigenous Papuan Muslim leaders agreed to support the continuation of Special Autonomy (Otsus) for Papua to continue in the Provinces of Papua and West Papua.
This can be seen in the Talk Show on Nationality in the Perspective of Papuan Muslim Leaders organized by the Papua-owned IAIN Fattahul Sharia Faculty in Abepura.
Chairman of the Papua Province MUI KH. On the occasion, Saiful Islam Al Fayage said that the people of Papua should support the continuity of the Papua Special Autonomy, even though there are shortcomings, it is still continued to improve the welfare and human resources of Papua.
"I said that Otsus is still running but needs to be reconstructed. Because this is a state policy so that Papuans can compete with their relatives outside Papua," he said.
However, he said, the implementation of the special autonomy which was still ongoing during this 2001-2021 vulnerability had to be reconstructed. The group that rejects otsus is also considered too phobic about otsus.
"Otsus continues but must be reconstructed. I also say that Otsus ends then Free Papua is not that easy, independence is not that easy. Papua is recorded in the UN twice, it will not be easy, and there is still Freeport," he said.
Meanwhile, Thoha Al Hamid, a Papuan Muslim leader who is also the board member of the KAHMI Papua also conveyed the same thing. According to him, the group rejecting Otsus is only used as a protection for the Papuan elite who have spent the Special Autonomy fund.
Thoha Al Hamid, who was also one of the achievements of the Otsus struggle at that time with other Papuan leaders, asked all members of the community to see the reality that was happening. Otsus has provided improved welfare and improved human resources in Papua.
"We live this life realistically, the road looks wide open to see the situation. Schools are getting smarter, the brain is used to see developments. So there are results but they are rejected. I really hope that in the future the special autonomy will continue for the funds to be independently managed. It is no longer the government. province, district / city, "he concluded.
