Ransiki, (Antara)-Tentara Nasional Indonesia Angkatan Laut (TNI-AL) akan membangun pangkalan di wilayah Kabupaten Manokwari Selatan, Papua Barat.

Wakil Bupati Manokwari Selatan Wempi Rengkung di Ransiki Manokwari Selatan, Selasa, mengatakan, sejak sah terbentuk menjadi daerah otonomi baru, pembangunan perangkat daerah dan vertikal gencar dilakukan di Manokwari Selatan.

Menurutnya, kahadiran TNI, Polri dan perangkat dari berbagai instansi pemerintahan yang lain diharapkan untuk mendukung keamanan dan upaya percepatan pembangunan daerah.

Terkait pembangunan pangkalan TNI-AL, lanjut Wempi, bulan lalu pihaknya telah menerima Liaison Officer (LO) atau perwira penghubung dari Lantamal XIV Sorong.

"Kita sudah bertemu dan berbicara panjang lebar. Rencananya, pangkalan akan dibangun di Momiwaren," kata Rengkung.

Perairan Manokwari Selatan, kata dia, akan menjadi salah satu wilayah pertahanan laut di Indonesia bagian timur. Pemerintah daerah siap mendukung rencana tersebut.

Mengawali program rencana tersebut, pemerintah daerah menfasilitasi gedung sebagai kantor LO di Oransbari. Dalam waktu dekat Komandan Lantamal XIV akan berkunjung ke daerah ini.

"Pada tahap awal ini, akan ada beberapa kapal pengintai yang ditempatkan di wilayah perairan kita. Juga ada 200 personil yang akan ditempatkan di sini," ujarnya lagi.

Dia menambahkan, selain menyiapkan lahan, pemerintah daerah juga siap mendukung dana operasional bagi.

"Rindam Kasuari sementara dibangun, SPN (Sekolah Polisi Negara) pun sedikit lagi dan sekarang angkatan laut masuk. Lengkap sudah, Manokwari Selatan siap berkembang," katanya lagi.

Belajar Ulang Dari Indri Lidiawati : Hari Ini Saya Baca Ulang Lebih Dari 100 Artikelnya

Tidak terasa, Hingga waktu istirahat kantor lewat, mata saya masih terpaku pada layar monitor dan jari masih menekan tuts ke tombol "older posts" di blog Juragan Cipir. Sudah lebih dari 100 halaman atau artikel yang dibaca selama itu. Untungnya artikel-artikelnya pendek-pendek, jadi saya bisa membaca banyak selama waktu istirahat yang tidak panjang itu. Memang heran karena blog Juragan Cipir, kepunyaan Mbak Indri Lidiawati sendiri sudah lama sekali tidak diupdate. Rasanya sudah hampir 6 bulan sejak artikel terakhir diterbitkan di blog tersebut. Setelah itu tidak ada lagi tulisan baru yang masuk, baik dari si empunya atau para rekan sesama blogger. Situasinya sudah agak mirip kuburan karena perlahan tapi pasti forumnya pun ikut terimbas dan tidak ada lagi percakapan tentang apapun. Padahal dulu banyak sekali tanya jawab tentang Adsense atau blog. Meskipun demikian, tetap saja saya rutin, setidaknya secara berkala datang berkunjung kesini. Saya paham bahwa tidak akan ada apapun...
