Muhammad mengakui untuk daerah berkembang seperti Jayawijaya perlu pembenahan sebab pengguna jasa telkomsel terus meningkat dan jika tidak diantisipasi maka dapat berdampak terhadap kurang optimalnya pelayanan.

Salah satu persoalan yang dihadapi telkomsel wilayah Wamena, kata dia, pelanggan mengeluhkan suara pantul atau mendengar suara sendiri saat menerima bahkan melakukan panggilan telepon.

"Suara pantul itu disebabkan karena pengguna sudah semakin banyak sehingga kapasitas menjadi terbatas. Namun kami berupaya menambah kapasitas dan melakukan pergantian perangkat yang kami datangkan dari luar," katanya.

Mewakili pihak telkomsel, Muhammad meminta maaf kepada masyarakat Kabupaten Jayawijaya atas ketidak nyamanan yang dirasakan hampir dua bulan itu.

Sebelumnya Sekretaris Daerah (Sekda) Jayawijaya Yohanis Walilo, minta PT Telkomsel Cabang Wamena bekerja profesional dalam memberikan pelayanan kepada masyarakat, sebab hingga kini jaringan telepon gengam dan internet masih bermasalah.

"Masyarakat merasa terganggu dengan pelayanan telkomsel selaku penyedia jaringan internet, dan kadang - kadang kami kalau mau kirim laporan atau surat penting (surat elektronik) pasti saja terlambat karena jaringan yang tidak stabil," kata Yohanis. (*)

NewsPapua - Setelah Kota Jayapura dan Merauke, Bank Indonesia menargetkan 2017 ini Mimika dan beberapa kota di Papua untuk ikut dalam survei harga pangan.

“Survei ini kan baru di Jayapura dan Merauke, Timika mulai tahun ini, dan beberapa kota lainnya di Papua akan juga masuk secara bertahap,” ujar Joko Supratikto kepada Jubi, Selasa (7/3/2017).

Dengan survei ini, kata Joko, pihaknya akan mengetahui secara ‘real’ atau nyata di tiap kabupaten yang ada di Papua. Yang akan disurvei tak hanya pasar modern, tapi juga pasar tradisional di tiap kabupaten.

“Komoditas-komoditas tertentu penyumbang inflasi disurvei, jadi kita lihat secara real berapa harga komoditas di tiap daerah dan kemudian ter-update di Pusat Informasi Harga Strategis Pangan (PIHPS) Nasional ,” ujarnya.

Dengan begitu, Tim Pemantauan dan Pengendalian Inflasi Daerah (TPID) dapat melakukan upaya stategis dan solusi mengatasi inflasi dari komoditas tersebut.

“Ini diwajibkan secara nasional oleh seluruh BI Perwakilan Provinsi untuk melakukan itu, dan kami harap ada penambahan kabupaten secara bertahap,” ujarnya.

BI Papua, katanya, masih kesulitan untuk mencari tim surveyor di daerah, sebab biasanya bekerja sama dengan universitas atau perguruan tinggi. Namun tidak semua daerah ada.

Bupati Merauke Fredy Gebze mengatakan, pada prinsipnya sangat mendukung upaya pemerintah terhadap pengendalian harga pangan di suatu daerah.

“Ini langkah baik dan pembentukan TPID daerah bisa menjadikan ini terukur,” katanya.

Ia tak menampik, kabupaten Merauke sebagai salah satu pilot project, karena potensi pasar dengan tren pertumbuhan yang meningkat, tak hanya produk untuk konsumsi di wilayah sendiri, juga untuk wilayah lain. (*)

NewsPapua - Lagi tudingan bahwa Freeport lebih banyak menjadi momok bagi kelangsungan rakyat Papua ketimbang manfaat datang dari elemen gerakan sosial di Jakarta.

Kali ini protes datang dari Papua Itu Kita (PIK), sebuah komunitas solidaritas untuk kemanusiaan dan keadilan di Papua berbasis di Jakarta.

“Dengan berlandaskan Kontrak Karya yang mulanya ditandatangani pada tahun 1967 dan diperpanjang hingga tahun 2021 mendatang, PTFI telah, dan akan terus menimbulkan berbagai permasalahan bagi masyarakat Papua dan kerugian bagi Indonesia,” demikian menurut rilis Papua Itu Kita yang diterima redaksi Sabtu (25/2/2016).

Pasalnya, menurut PIK, kehadiran Freeport sudah terbukti menimbulkan kehilangan hak, kekisruhan sosial-ekonomi, penderitaan bagi penduduk asli setempat, penghancuran budaya, dan kerusakan lingkungan, karena tidak menghormati hak-hak masyarakat setempat.

PIK juga mengingatkan bahwa KK I PT. FI tahun 2967 itu illegal, karena dilakukan sebelum Penentuan Pendapat Rakyat (Pepera) 1969.

“KK I dilaksanakan 2 tahun sebelum PEPERA, yaitu 1967, dan Papua saat itu hanya diawasi oleh Indonesia sebagai perwakilan PBB dan belum secara resmi menjadi wilayah hukum Indonesia, dan perdebatan status Papua pada masa awal KK I menjadi masalah politik yang belum selesai,” tulis PIK.

‘Usir’ Freeport

Mengutip catatan LSM Imparsial dan KontraS, PIK secara khusus juga menyoroti peran TNI Polri dalam bisnis keamanan PT. FI. Dalam rilisnya itu PIK menyebutkan

“Imparsial mengungkapkan bahwa pada tahun 1995-2004 Polri dan TNI telah menerima aliran dana sebesar US$ 64 Juta dan US$ 1 juta pada tahun 2010 dari PTFI. Sedangkan KontraS juga melaporkan tiap bulannya anggota Polri memperoleh honor Rp 1,25 juta oleh manajemen PTFI,” tulisnya.

Pada tahun 2011 lalu, Indonesia Police Watch (IPW), menurut PIK juga pernah mendorong agar KPK mengusut “bantuan dana” sebesar US$ 14 juta yang dialirkan oleh PTFI pada Polri dan TNI.

Atas dasar hal tersebut, PIK menuntut agar PT. FI ditutup dan asetnya dikembalikan ke negara dan rakyat Papua. Mereka juga meminta kelangsungan pembicaraan terkait PT. FI agar melibatkan masyarakat adat papua, DPRD, dan elemen masyarakat Papua.

Terpisah, Direktur Pusat Budaya dan Hak-Hak Masyarakat (PUSAKA) Papua, Franky Samperante dilansir IndoPress, Jumat (24/2) mengatakan warga tidak terpengaruh terkait perdebatan Freeport.

Menurut Franky, perdebatan soal Freeport yang ramai saat ini hanya soal bagi-bagi untung antara PT Freeport dan pemerintah, namun sama sekali mengacuhkan nasib warga Papua sendiri.

“Sejak Freeport mulai ada di Papua, itu belum ada satu forum atau kesempatan buat masyarakat untuk suarakan aspirasinya terkait hak-hak mereka,”
