JAYAPURA - The Acting Regent of Mamberamo Raya Regency and the Regent of Waropen were officially inaugurated.
The Acting Governor of Papua, Ramses Limbong, held the inauguration at the local Governor's Office, Soa Siu Dok II, Jayapura City, Wednesday (25/9/2024).
"These two Acting Regents have a tough task to ensure that the Regional Elections run well and ensure the neutrality of the State Civil Apparatus," said Limbong.

Governor Ramses Limbong in his speech also emphasized the two Acting Regents to ensure that the implementation of the Regional Elections runs safely and smoothly.
"So that the two Acting Regents do not leave Waropen and Mamberamo Raya while carrying out their duties as Acting Regent," he said.
It is known that the Acting Regent of Mamberamo Raya and Waropen will carry out their duties from the inauguration today until November 28, 2024. ***
