PAPUA - TNI-Polri soldiers tasked with maintaining security and public order in Papua received motivation and enthusiasm from TNI Commander Marshal Hadi Tjahjanto and National Police Chief General Listyo Sigit Prabowo.

Because all TNI-Polri personnel have worked hard and mobilized all their abilities to maintain security in Papua. This, said the National Police Chief Sigit, is the best form of a soldier's dedication to the nation, state and people of Indonesia.

"I would like to express my appreciation to all TNI-Polri personnel who tirelessly and enthusiastically serve in the field, providing the best service to the nation and state and society," said Sigit in Papua in an official statement, Friday, October 22.

One example of the hard work carried out by the TNI-Polri, said Sigit, was the implementation of the XX National Sports Week (PON) in Papua, which went smoothly in terms of security. At the same time, safe in terms of health in the midst of the Covid-19 Pandemic.

The former Police Chief of Criminal Investigation Unit also saw the hard work of TNI-Polri members who continue to synergize with the Health Office and volunteers related to the acceleration of vaccination.

Where at the time of the PON implementation activities, although spectators were present, only 136 people were positively exposed. Then, at this time the average was almost partially cured.

"We have seen that this past week compared to last week there was a decrease in positive confirmation. This means that all the work done by colleagues related to efforts to control the pace of covid is going well," said Sigit. The Banten Regional Police Chief also appreciated the TNI-Polri ranks for securing the implementation of the PON from the interference of the Armed Criminal Group (KKB).

According to Sigit, the successful implementation of securing national events in Papua can be a reflection that Indonesia is capable of organizing events both domestically and internationally.

"This shows that in the eyes of the world, Indonesia during the COVID-19 period was able to hold large events with spectators and run smoothly and safely. All of this could happen because of the hard work of TNI-Polri colleagues, the community and related elements to make PON run well , said Sigit.

Furthermore, Sigit emphasized that the synergy and solidity of the TNI-Polri along with other stakeholders must be maintained and strengthened in the future. According to him, the success so far can occur because of these strategic factors.

"Thanks to the synergy and solidity of the TNI-Polri and with the full support of the entire Papuan community. We have succeeded in maintaining security and order in the Papua region," said Sigit.

Not only that, Sigit emphasized that the solidity and synergy between the TNI and the National Police must be maintained in order to maintain the sovereignty of the state and Papua.

"Papua can progress, Papua can develop with all existing resources, so the key is stability related to security," concluded Sigit.
