JAYAPURA - Minister of Social Affairs Tri Rismaharini provides technological support for efficient transportation for Papuans, to support sustainable social empowerment programs in the region.
Social Minister Risma said that currently there are two ships, the result of a collaboration between Cenderawasih University (Uncen) and the Sepuluh Nopember Institute of Technology (ITS), which will be submitted for empowerment programs in Mamberamo Raya Regency.
"The three are in the finishing stage. There is already a certificate of eligibility from the Ministry of Transportation," said Risma during her visit to the Tanah Papua GKI, Jayapura City, as reported by Antara, Tuesday, March 22.
Social Minister Risma said the ship would be used as a means of transportation for students and teachers in Mamberamo Raya Regency.
In addition to water transportation, Social Minister Risma also followed up the trial of two-wheeled vehicles, which were modified for freight transportation designed like a trail bike by ITS.
The vehicle is expected not only for transportation, but can also be used to transport goods. So it is expected to reduce costs for the price of transporting goods.
"Because we design everything with technology," said Social Minister Risma.
He said the procurement of transportation was carried out by transfer of knowledge carried out by Uncen and ITS. For example, when there are residents of the Yapen Islands Regency who want to build a ship, they will be flown to Surabaya to transfer knowledge.
