NDUGA - One of the military units under the command of the Indonesian Armed Forces Operational Command HABEMA, the Task Forces of the Para Raider Infantry Battalion 503/Mayangkara Kostrad, is currently conducting mobile security at the border of Indonesia and Papua New Guinea, especially in Nduga Regency, Papua Pegunungan Province. On Monday, 26 August 2024, the 503 Task Forces completed the communal work with the Mumugu residents in repairing a building of the "Sekolah Rimba (Jungle School)".
The communal work was conducted due to Social Communication (Komsos) which was actively organized by the 503 Task Forces. According to the 503 Task Forces Commander, Lieutenant Colonel Gurbasa Samosir, the Komsos is an implementation of the TNI's commitment to implementing inclusive social communication with all components of the community within the Papua region. Previously, the Batas Batu Post led by First Lieutenant Galih Widiharyo met and communicated with Mr Daniel Menjeh, the Leader of the Mumugu Village. The results of the Komsos approved the plan to repair the Sekolah Rimba building which was damaged in several parts such as roof of the building and access road to the school. Furthermore, the Soldiers had established well territorial development with the Officials and Community Figures in Mumugu Village. It resulted in the implementation of communal work which ran safely and smoothly and involved many parties who could speed up the repairment of the school.
The Mumugu residents enthusiastically welcomed the initiative of the 503 Task Forces to repair the condition of the Sekolah Rimba building. It was due to the residents’ limitations in providing building materials. Eventually, on Monday afternoon, the process was completed successfully. In response to the completion of the repair, Mr Daniel Menjeh enthusiastically said, "Thank you Commander 503. The Mumugu Sekolah Rimba was finally repaired. God bless."
After receiving the activity report, the HABEMA Commanding General, Brigadier General Lucky Avianto, acknowledged the 503 Task Forces’ initiative to communicate socially with Mumugu residents to repair the Sekolah Rimba. His words: "The 503 Task Forces' initiative is a testament to TNI's commitment to conduct inclusive Social Communication with all parties to support the acceleration of development in the Papua region." This acknowledgment from the highest authority in HABEMA underscores the importance of such initiatives and their impact on the region's development.
