JAKARTA - Papua Police Chief Inspector General Pol Patrige Renwarin made a working visit to the Yapen Islands Police in Serui, Japen Island, Papua, Friday 9 May.
This visit is to check security readiness ahead of the 2024 Papua Pilkada re-voting (PSU).
"That's why during a working visit to the Yapen Islands Police, it was also carried out to check the readiness of the Resort Police and its staff regarding security in the area," said the Papuan Police Chief at the Yapen Islands Police Station, Japen Island, Papua, Friday, May 9, which was confiscated by Antara.
He said that checking the readiness would also be carried out on eight Polres and Polresta in the Papua Province area.
From the data revealed at the Yapen Islands Police, there were 230 polling stations spread across 17 districts, while the number of personnel available was limited.
"That is why it is hoped that it can empower the potential in the community to help carry out tasks to ensure the success of PSU security in the election of governors and deputy governors of Papua," he said.
"Hopefully our presence here can encourage us in preparing ourselves and everything related to the PSU so that it can take place safely," he continued.
The 2024 Papua Pilkada PSU will be held on August 6, 2025, according to the decision of the Constitutional Court regarding the election dispute case.
