Jakarta (ANTARA) – Petrus Kasihiw has officially become a prospective candidate for deputy regional head in the 2024 simultaneous regional elections.

During his leadership, he managed to bring significant changes, especially in the infrastructure sector. One of the major projects that has been realized is the construction of the Sumuri People's Port, which has improved connectivity and access to sea transportation for the local community.

In addition, Petrus also prioritized road construction, including road construction projects connecting isolated areas, such as the Bintuni to North Moskona and East Moskona roads, as well as the roads from Merdey to Masyeta and Bintuni to Merdey, all of which have been built with concrete construction (rigid).

Before becoming regent, Petrus served as Head of Bappeda Tambrauw Regency and Acting Regional Secretary of Tambrauw Regency.

In terms of education, he is a graduate of the State University of Papua (UNIPA) with a bachelor's degree in engineering.

At the end of his term as the regent of Teluk Bintuni, Petrus stepped up to a higher level, namely advancing as a candidate for deputy governor of Southwest Papua 2024. Currently, the candidate pair for governor and deputy governor AFU and Petrus Kasihiuw are being supported by four political parties, namely the Demokrat, NasDem, PKS and PSI parties.
