The Community Supports the Implementation of PON Papua

 

The National Sports Week (PON) is a multi-pronged sporting event attended by all provinces in Indonesia. This year Papua gets an allocation to host the national scale event. The Papuan people responded positively to the event, so they were expected to be able to promote Papua to the world.

The Indonesian National Sports Committee (KONI) Papua Province also asked for the support of indigenous peoples to support the Training Center (TC) of Papuan athletes who will compete in the XX National Sports Week (PON) on October 02-13, 2021.

Meanwhile, the Jayapura City government has also prepared a number of beach tourism objects to support the implementation of the XX Papua PON in the Jayapura city cluster, Papua.

Jayapura Mayor Benhur Tomi Mano (BTM) in Jayapura said, God gave our land to Port Numbay with all the beauty of its coastal tourism objects, so that it can bring in income for welfare, especially during PON 2021, where of course tourists will flock to Jayapura city.

He admitted that the beauty of beach tourism objects in Jayapura City is a good opportunity to bring in money for the beach management community.

President Joko Widodo had reminded that PON in Papua is not just a sports competition. But PON is a common arena to celebrate diversity, strengthen the spirit of brotherhood and an arena to strengthen unity and integrity. So that in the midst of this pandemic, of course all parties will continue to prepare themselves as well as possible.
