Head of Regional Staffing Agency (BKD) Papua Nicolaus Wenda confirmed that he has not received a resignation letter, from the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) which is running in the concurrent elections in Regional Staffing Agency.
From journalists' observation, two Papuan Provincial ASNs had been appointed by the local KPU as a candidate of regent election.
The Head of Papua Marine and Fisheries Office ,FX Mote is running as a prospective regent in Nabire Regency, as well as former Assistant General Secretary of Papua Elysa Auri as a candidate for regent of Wondama Bay, West Papua.
"I have not received a letter of resignation from ASN that is advancing the Election. But this was only set a few days ago."
We'll just wait because the mechanism must be resigned if ASN is in politics. Mr. Mote has resigned from his position as head of the marine and fisheries office," explained Nicolaus in Jayapura, Thursday (9/24/2020).
There is no preparation for the names of the regents. Maybe after an incumbent submits his resignation, then the Acting Regent will proceed”.
"What is certain is the process (submitting resignation of the incumbent) we hope it will not take too long," he said.
