It is no longer a secret that Papuan separatists are always looking for loopholes to launch their actions. The TNI / Polri and the community are expected to be unaware and continue to be vigilant about the movement of this group ahead of PON XX 2020 in Papua.
Preparations ahead of PON XX 2020 in Papua did not escape a number of preparations. Including the matter of security. This is to anticipate the possibility of interference from Papuan armed separatist groups. Reflecting on experience, this group seemed tirelessly looking for loopholes in order to launch the action. This anticipation is also carried out so that the implementation of this sports party runs smoothly.
These concerns are not without reason, considering that the KKSB embraces extremism. They do not hesitate to take cruel actions against anyone who disagrees with them. In fact, those who openly visited the headquarters of the security forces and attacked the Police and TNI blindly. Either with weapons, spears, or weapons look at it.
Previously, BIN Detection and Mapping of Potential Security Vulnerability at PON XX Papua was coming. There are at least four regions that carry out the match. Among them are Jayapura City, Jayapura Regency, Mimika and Merauke.
Budi explained that from the detection and mapping series there were several potential vulnerabilities, but a joint operation had been carried out to prevent and cut these potentials so that they would not become a real disturbance.
In general, Collaboration between BIN, TNI and Polri has carried out a number of joint operations, both intelligence operations, security restoration operations, and maintaining security stability. Until now, future security predictions can still be maintained. He detailed, there are patterns of security systems either open or closed. This needs to be done, following the planned visit of heads of state and ambassadors especially in the Asia-Pacific region.
Previously, the government asked all contingents not to worry about security issues ahead of the XX 2020 National Sports Week in Papua.
The Minister of Youth and Sports, Zainudin Amali, is concerned about security ahead of the implementation of this grand event, which has received a guarantee of readiness from the Provincial Government of Papua both in terms of infrastructure and in the security sector.
This is normal if the security process must be improved. Because, not only President Jokowi but also guests from abroad. Of course the optimal security oversight needs to be prioritized. The implication is, Indonesia’s good name is at stake in this regard.
Although Papuans themselves have expressed their readiness in relation to the implementation of the grand event, it is possible that disruption might occur. So that all steps and efforts continue to be made.
Separatists who continue to undermine the country cannot be tolerated. They are in the name of the people of Papua to get independence. In fact, most of the black land people claim to be part of the Homeland until whenever. It has also been approved, nationally and internationally.
Then there are indications of outside interference who command this group. Starting from the supply of weapons to funding. This possibility can happen, black soil is rich in abundant natural resources. While the HR is not yet optimal in processing it. Another indication is the rejection of infrastructure development in a number of areas of Papua. Starting from the toll road, access to isolated areas to internet network projects.
This rejection proves that there are certain parties who do not want Papua to progress. Regardless of the goals of the separatist group. In fact, it still leaves an impression in memory. The separatist frontman brought this issue to the other country and twisted the truth. Unfortunately, the international community also did not condone the group’s bad efforts. After all Papua is still the Homeland.
Efforts failed, they also launched other ways, including bringing the issue of human rights which some time ago had become viral. They even urged the Republic of Indonesia to free a number of prisoners who had committed treason. Is this crazy? Those who commit cruelty actually even brag if they become victims. This is called Playing victims!
However, Indonesia did not lose the effort. The entire security fleet to the synergy of the government to the people of Papua (who claim NKRI) was mobilized to confront this separatist group. And now Papua has been transformed into a new figure, by declaring readiness to carry out the XX PON 2020 event in their region. Even though the percentage of disturbances is there, everyone is ready to face it.
