TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) told the people of Papua to maintain the peace and unity in the region, especially heading towards the regional head elections (Pilkada). 

“Don’t let any rifts spark between us all during the democratic process (Pilkada),” he said Wednesday, April 11.

The president’s message of peace was delivered on the sidelines of the land certificate handover to 3,331 local residents spread in several regions in Papua Province.
