Special Staff to the President of the Republic of Indonesia, Billy Mambrasar, revealed that the reason President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) is very concerned about infrastructure development and improving the quality of indigenous Papuans is because of Jokowi's deep love for Papua.
He explained this in order to answer several people's questions, which later emerged as chat speculations wrapped in hypothetical explanations using Jokowi's economic interest theory, imaging communication theory, and ambition conspiracy political theory, which Billy said was unproven.
"I don't want to argue or use a special theory to explain the reason. Then, what is it between Jokowi and Papua? The simple explanation is love," Billy said in a written statement, Sunday (11/14/21).
As seen when President Jokowi and his entourage stopped to buy noken at the Taman Imbi Noken Market, Jayapura City on Saturday (11/13/2021). This happened after Jokowi watched a judo match at the XVI National Park of Tourism at the Trikora Jayapura Sports Hall to the Cenderawasih Gymnasium to then watch the badminton match.
That moment reminded him when he accompanied President Jokowi at the opening of the XX 2021 PON in mid-October and made a working visit for almost a week at the same time. He said, when the group passed through the city of Jayapura, Jokowi pointed to the women from Paniai who were selling in Taman Imbi, Jayapura City.
"The two of us then had a little discussion in front of the hotel lobby before resting, and he asked about the mothers, which I then explained by telling stories about them. He then promised, when he came back, he would come to them," he said.
"He proved this, during a working visit to close Peparnas XVI yesterday. He came, greeted and bought Noken from Papuan women at Taman Imbi," continued Billy.
Not only that, Billy said that President Jokowi's form of love and concern for Papuan mothers was not only in that moment.
"In addition to ordering the construction of a market for Papuan mothers, he also encourages various programs in the form of business capital assistance, social assistance, and even always takes the time to listen to the complaints of mothers every time they make a working visit to Papua," he added.
Witnessing the fact that Jokowi's concern reminded him of Jokowi's advice, which is to always work hard, keep learning and make sure the foundation of public service must be strong. He continued, President Jokowi also often said that a good leader is a leader who serves, and serving must use taste.
"I continue to hold that message, that leaders are leaders who serve, and love is the basis, foundation, strength and source of energy to carry out that service, even though we are ridiculed, slandered, with envy and envy," said Billy.
Then, Billy, who is the Special Staff of the President from Papua, also said that Jokowi always mentioned and introduced him on several occasions. For him, Jokowi's attitude is a form of appreciation, deep trust and an injection of enthusiasm, not only to him, but to all Papuan children and young Indonesians.
"Pak Jokowi strongly believes that change exists and will continue to occur. Especially if it is driven by young people. He hopes that Papuan people, especially young people, are fully involved in developing Papua, even Indonesia. That's the reason he built the Papua Youth Creative Hub (PYCH). ) to encourage creativity and involvement of young Papuan people in various sectors," he explained.
It also provoked Billy's memory of Jokowi's words, which always emphasized that development should not only build infrastructure, but what is more important is the development of people. Even in actual action, Jokowi is keen to push for Presidential Instruction No. 9 of 2020, concerning the acceleration of the development of Papua and West Papua, whose breath is Papuan Human Development.
A series of significant changes have taken place in Papua, namely infrastructure acceleration, the construction of the magnificent Youtefa bridge in Jayapura, the fast-connected trans-Papua road, to the holding of PON XX, the holding of the 2021 National Tourism Park. According to Billy, President Jokowi believes that Papua and Papuans can already .
"One thing from his message, to me for the past two years working with him, is that building Papua is not just the work of one or two people. We all have the same important role. The trick is never stop working, do whatever it takes to get good education and optimistic that not only: People Can!, But also People are Great!" he concluded.
