Papuan Community Leaders Support The Establishment Of DOB
WAMENA - Community leader from the central highlands of Papua Province, Lenis Kogoya, supports the establishment of a New Autonomous Region (DOB) in Papua.
Lenis Kogoya while in Wamena, reported by Antara, Tuesday, May 17, saw the need for a new autonomous province in the central highlands of Papua because it was feasible.
"As a tribal chief, I accept, agree with DOB", he emphasized.
The former Special Staff of President Jokowi also asked the central government to form a new district because the mountainous people have longed for it.
Several proposals for new districts in the mountainous region of Papua, for example, are Bogoga, Trikora, Baliem Centre, Okika, and Yahukimo.
"So, tomorrow the submission of the decree (SK) for this province must be the same as the district decree by the aspirations of the people because these districts have been proposed for a long time, almost 20 years", he said.

He invites the community to support the program because it is for the welfare of the community.
"People who ask for this development, we also want to go forward. For those who don't want to go forward, please, but the rest of us will continue to advance with the government", he said.
