The Indonesian House of Representatives conducted a strategic working visit to Southwest Papua Province in order to absorb community aspirations regarding development progress in the New Autonomous Region (DOB) which will later become the basis for implementing central government policies in the future.
Chairman of Commission II of the Indonesian House of Representatives, Dr. Muhammad Rifqinizami Karsayuda, in Sorong, Friday, said that his party is ready to oversee all crucial issues faced by the people of Southwest Papua as part of efforts to present the state to fulfill the interests of the people.
"We came to listen directly so that the solutions prepared are truly in accordance with the needs of the community," he said in a meeting with governors, regents, and mayors throughout Southwest Papua.
On that occasion, he explained that the Indonesian House of Representatives had prepared legislative steps that would accommodate various regional issues in the Draft Law (RUU) on New Special Autonomy and Changes to Regional Governance.
