Her working visit reflected the central government’s commitment to accelerating the development of South Papua, a part of the New Autonomous Regions (DOB), to support the goal of Indonesia becoming an advanced country by 2045.
Upon arriving at Mopah Airport at 8:20 a.m. local time, Haluk went to the South Papua Administration Zone (KPP) construction site located in the Salor Integrated Independent City (KTM) area, Kurik sub-district.
She was accompanied by South Papua Governor Apolo Safanpo.
“After our visit, we can see that construction is progressing. The Provincial People’s Representative Council (DPRP) office has reached 11 percent. The Papuan People’s Assembly (MRP) office is also showing development, and the Governor’s Office is currently at 11 percent progress,” Haluk said.
She expressed optimism that all construction projects in the KPP area would be completed on time by the end of December 2025. According to her, infrastructure readiness is key to ensure that the South Papua administration can operate independently and deliver effective public services.
She also thanked local communities for their support in advancing development in the region, and called for maintaining synergy among all stakeholders, including the DPRP, MRP, the military and police, and the public.
She added that her side will continue to monitor and assist in the KPP project completion. She also encouraged all stakeholders in South Papua to maintain the spirit of development toward regional progress.
