JAKARTA - Governor Isran Noor confirmed that the people of East Kalimantan (Kaltim) will support the construction of the National Capital (IKN) of the Archipelago. They will also not feel disturbed and refuse the arrival of residents from outside the area.
"The people of East Kalimantan have been fully supportive since the announcement of August 26, 2019 by the President. There are no problems, let alone rejection," said Isran in Samarinda, Saturday, January 22, quoted from Antara.
According to him, historically, the indigenous people of East Kalimantan are few, less than half of the total population. However, the people of East Kalimantan accept brothers from outside East Kalimantan living side by side.
"A lot of them are immigrants, mainly from Java Island as much as 35 percent. Then followed by Sulawesi around 20 percent. The rest includes the indigenous people, Dayak, Kutai and Banjar. But they already live together," he explained.
Therefore, support for the IKN development plan does not seem to be a problem and according to him, if the people of East Kalimantan want to be involved, it is a natural thing and not to be questioned.
"If it is necessary to adjust the capacity of each to involve what can be done, then do it," he said.
The governor is sure that the people of East Kalimantan will accept residents from outside well because the culture and customs of the local community always welcome anyone's arrival.
"Moreover, not too many people come, so at most one to two million people who will be in the IKN area," he said.
The former East Kutai Regent added that IKN is not land or people, but industrial plantation forests or state land.
"Maybe there are people who live in the surrounding area, not in the core area, for example in Sepaku Semoi there are residents from Java, it will definitely be arranged, it can't be taken over just like that," he explained.
Therefore, he guarantees that IKN development will be safe, including that no cultures are removed.
"I have communicated with the local community and they provide full support," he concluded.
