Developing Papua As A Way Out To Overcome The Armed Violence Group ( Kelompok Kekerasan Bersenjata ) in Papua

Abstract

Papua’s development m us t be considered in developing Indonesia. It is the unity in Bhineka Tunggal Ika. The equality and justice in striving the people’s prosperity is also important for Indonesian people. Pancasila is the basis of the nation, which explains the five principles that have a power in developing Indonesia towards a “Mutual Cooperation ( Gotong Royong )” society. The fifth principle, the justice for all Indonesian people shows that it is Soekarno’s idea of how the people can relish the existence of justice and prosperity in both formal and non - formal fields which leads to mutual cooperation. It is implemented in Jokowi’s era which is building and developing the marginalized areas, from Sabang to Merauke, esp ecially the neglected areas. This is the time to realize the real action for Papua to gain justice although the challenges and obstacles that will be faced are not easy. Injustice, marginalization, and sub - culture are often being the starting points of var ious crimes and violences in Papua. The Violence Armed Group ( Kelompok Kekerasan Bersenjata ) uses those three variables as the reasons for committing various forms of violences and politically frame it with the desire to escape from Indonesia. The governme nt and the ruling regime are in charge to keep increasing the development in Papua. It is all for the sake of justice, equality, and prosperity for Papua’s people.
