WEST PAPUA - Regional Office (Kanwil) of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights (Kemenkumham) West Papua Province confirmed that there are no luxury cells or rooms in the Correctional Institution (Lapas) and State Detention Centers (Rutan) in West Papua and Southwest Papua Provinces.
"For a year I have served here, we make sure there are no luxury rooms like what happened in other areas," said Head of the West Papua Regional Office (Kakanwil) of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights Taufiqurrakhman in Manokwari, Thursday, May 4, as reported by Antara.
According to him, so far the correctional technical implementation unit (UPT) of the West Papua Ministry of Law and Human Rights Regional Office, both prisons and detention centers, continues to make maximum efforts to carry out the transformation.
This, he said, is in accordance with the mandate of Law Number 22 of 2022 concerning correctional facilities, so that all prison ranks are required to apply a more humane pattern of coaching for prisoners and detainees.
"Now the inmates are no longer tortured or ostracized but given various types of coaching," he said.
Taufiqurrakhman explained that the transformation of coaching patterns is divided into two categories, namely personality development and independence coaching.
For personality coaching, it includes mental and spiritual development, increased awareness of the nation and state, intellectual development, and other activities.
Then, what is meant by the development of independence, namely each prison and detention center provides space for expression for the inmates according to their abilities.
"For example, the development of creative art talent, wood carpentry, welding, automotive, livestock, and culinary. We provide many types of coaching to prisoners and prisoners," he said.

He explained that the change in the pattern of coaching that had been implemented by the Correctional UPT was aimed at restoring the identity of each perpetrator of a criminal act, so that after serving his sentence, the inmates already had provisions to develop their potential through creative businesses.
Therefore, he said, prisons must increase the synergy of collaboration with local governments so that efforts to foster prisoners have a broad impact.
He also appreciated the support from a number of community social institutions (NGOs) and the mass media for changes to the correctional system, especially the UPT Regional Office of the West Papua Ministry of Law and Human Rights.
"The convicts are also people who violate the law, so the coaching is not only the responsibility of the prison," said Taufiqurrakhman.
