One way to solve this problem is to use a cultural and welfare approach.

Until now, the Government of the Republic of Indonesia itself has been looking for various solutions and strategies that are very appropriate to be able to overcome an unsafe situation with various actions that seriously threaten the safety of civilians and even many other actions that have also caused casualties, both from the security forces. security to civilians themselves.
Some of the steps taken by the government are not only taking firm action and prioritizing the military, but these actions are also very measurable. This is because the Government of Indonesia itself also cooperates with various stakeholders or related stakeholders such as religious leaders such as the Church. Apart from that, the government is also working with many other parties such as community leaders, traditional leaders, to local regional governments to be able to optimally solve problems.

Because if this is not the case, then a prolonged negative impact will continue to be generated. So that the strong commitment possessed by the Government of Indonesia in solving this problem deserves the highest possible appreciation.
