Head of Keerom Students, the value of the continuation of Otsus is important for Papua

Head of Keerom Regency Student, Ayub Biuk, assessed that the continuation of the Special Autonomy Law (Otsus) is important for Papua Province in accelerating development in all fields, especially education.

According to him, the narrative of the failure of Otsus that was echoed by a number of parties was actually a turning point from the policymakers' lack of understanding in addressing the overall meaning and purpose of Otsus.

However, said Ayub, Otsus was considered a failure not as a whole, but rather a misunderstanding by regional officials in implementing the budget in many fields which were considered not on target.

Representing the Keerom community, Ayub said that the development of development in the area was mostly funded by the Special Autonomy Fund so that the continuation of Otsus was considered very important.

"As long as I studied the Special Autonomy Law, I have never come across a word related (when) to the end of Otsus itself, but we have high hopes that this special policy will remain a priority for us by the central government," he hoped.
