The Papua Provincial Government (Pemprov) sent 30 superior students of indigenous Papuans (OAP) to study abroad, especially in the United States. They are recipients of special autonomy scholarships.
"These OAP students are recipients of special autonomy (autonomy) scholarships. They have 45 credits in their studies," said the founder and CEO of Jakarta International College (JIC), Dr. Wenny Susanto, Tuesday (4/5/2021).
The release of these students took place in Jakarta on Monday (3/5/2021) night. The sending of these students is the commitment of the Papua Provincial Government in developing human resources (HR) to become a driver of regional development. The Papuan student will continue his studies at several well-known universities that are included in the top national ranking of universities in the US, including The Ohio State University, Michigan State University, Western Michigan University, The University Of Kansas, Auburn University and Louisiana State University.
The head of the Papua Human Resources Development Agency (BPSDM), Aryoko AF Rumapen, said that the Papuan superior student was expected to become an ambassador for Papua, in particular and Indonesia in general, while studying abroad. "Study hard so that you will be able to return home later on to Papua. Always remember that your job is only to learn to gain knowledge," he said.
