The Indigenous Peoples of West Papua Fully Support the Implementation of Otsus-DOB



The implementation of special autonomy (Otsus) and the formation of new autonomous regions (DOB) were approved. The Doreri Tribe Indigenous People in Manokwari Regency together with indigenous Papuan tribal chiefs in the Domberai Customary Region III West Papua agreed to provide support.

"As Papuan indigenous peoples in the West Papua region, we fully support the government's program aimed at developing and prospering all of us who inhabit this customary area," said Head of the Doreri Tribe, Gat Hendrik Rumfabe.

This commitment has even been declared through the signing of a joint statement on Wednesday (9/3) at the Doreri Tribe Secretariat in Manokwari Regency.

Rumfabe stated that the joint commitment was made to support the process of reconciliation and restructuring towards a peaceful Papua by implementing Otsus and DOB.
 
According to him, the implementation of Otsus in this area is proof of the central government's concern to raise the dignity of indigenous Papuans in order to rise up and work in various fields of development within the framework of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia.

"We strongly support the establishment of district and provincial new autonomous regions to answer development needs, as well as provide opportunities for indigenous Papuan sons and daughters to lead their own regions," said Rumfabe.
 
He acknowledged that in terms of human resources there are still many indigenous Papuan sons and daughters who have graduate degrees who need jobs. Therefore, the Special Autonomy Law provides an opportunity through the formation of new autonomous regions to address this gap.

"DOB will open up job opportunities and this must be supported by all indigenous peoples because the government is a partner of various traditional institutions that exist on Papuan land," said Rumfabe.
