KALTIM - Deputy Chairman I of the Regional People's Representative Council (DPRD) of North Penajam Paser Regency, Raup Muin, said that the move of the State Capital (IKN) to East Kalimantan (Kaltim) should be accompanied by a local human resource development plan.

He asked the IKN Authority to pay attention to this by programing an increase in local human resources as IKN was moved to East Kalimantan.

"Human resources development for North Penajam Paser Regency must be carried out so that they are ready to accept and be able to compete with the relocation of the national capital," he said in Penajam Paser Utara, quoted from Antara.

IKN Nusantara infrastructure development in Sepaku District, North Penajam Paser Regency, he continued, must be in line with human resource development, especially the people in the area nicknamed "Benuo Taka".

The majority of residents of North Penajam Paser Regency support the transfer of Indonesian IKN to the area, but the community is also worried that they will not compete with migrants from other islands.

The program to improve local human resources, he stressed, must be carried out by the Nusantara IKN Authority Agency from an early age. "Local human resources are prepared to be competitive, do not let it become the capital city, human resources are not ready," he added.

Increasing human resources to face competition is very important, so that after becoming the state capital, the people of North Penajam Paser Regency do not become unemployed.

Human resource development for the people of North Penajam Paser Regency is very important, he explained, so that later they will not be far behind with immigrants from other regions.

With the stipulation of North Penajam Paser Regency as the new capital city of Indonesia, of course, increasing local human resources is very important in order to be able to compete in the world of work.

Raup Muin said that the central government and the Nusantara IKN Authority had to prepare a lot, starting from infrastructure to human resources.
