aceh people who care about their spirit state
Bireuen - Deputy Governor of Aceh, Nova Iriansyah, said the Aceh Government is not in a position to provide solutions related to the problems facing Rohingya refugees. However, the Aceh government continues to provide assistance on a humanitarian basis. "The fate of Rohingya refugees who seek asylum is an international task undertaken by the UNHCR (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees), IOM (International Organization for Migration) and other concerned parties," said Vice Mayor, who was accompanied by Bireuen Regent Saifannur when reviewing Rohingya refugees at the Learning Activity Learning Center (SKB) Cot Gapu, Bireuen, Tuesday, April 24, 2018.
Nova said the Aceh Government has already communicated with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, UNHCR, IOM and other institutions dealing with refugee issues to get certainty related to the handling of Rohingya. "Based on information from one of the members of IOM earlier, their goal (Rohingya) is not to Indonesia, but to Malaysia," said Nova.
According to him, the handling of the Aceh Government is only temporary until there is a decision from the Central Government. "We follow the policy of the Central Government, we handle them because they are stranded in Aceh, they are also human like us, let alone they need help, so we help," Nova said again.
Nova also mentioned, the Government of Aceh does not allocate special funds for handling Rohingya refugees. "For now there is help from the community, or sympathetic institutions, and from Dinas Sosial Aceh for not violating the rules," said Nova.
Nova is grateful to Bireuen Regent and her staff, TNI, Polri, other related parties and the community that has helped save the refugees from Rohingya with sincerity. "We hope that if they move from here, they have finished all matters related to the handling of Rohingya," he said.
Also included in the review are Assistant for Economics and Development, Taqwallah, Head of Aceh Social Service, Al Hudri, Head of BPBA, Teuku Ahmad Dadek and other related elements.
