Jakarta - Merauke Police Chief Adjunct Senior Commissioner Untung Sangaji initiated training on making clothes buttons from coconut shells and processing cooking oil for indigenous Papuans. Adjunct Senior Commissioner of Police, Untung Sangaji, deliberately initiated the skills of the home industry or home industry to support the community economy in Meurauke. Over time, training in the skills of making buttons from coconut shells and processing of coconut oil has increased in demand. Not only mothers, some Asmat girls have started to become interested in learning the skills to process coconut shells into beautiful buttons. Initially three beautiful girls were very serious and concerned about participating in the coconut oil making training with 18 Asmat mothers. Over time, the three Asmat girls became interested in making unique buttons from coconut shells. "So there are three beautiful Asmat girls who are interested in taking part in additional training to make unique coconut shell buttons," said Adjunct Senior Commissioner of Police, Untung Sangaji in a statement received on Saturday (22/1/2021). The man who received certificates and awards from the minister for Communications Singapore and Under Ambrella and Mission Sacre of United Nations and ADCAIT Bangkok said that the three Asmat girls were very diligent in practicing and were very smart. "We provide a preparation for them, humans, and tools. Finally, we train, so cool, it turns out that this child is very diligent and very clever," he said. Of the 21 women in Asmat hinterland who are being coached, Adjunct Senior Commissioner Untung Sangaji will divide them into two teams. The first team is making coconut oil and the second is making unique buttons from coconut shells. That way, he believes that the skills of these Asmat women will be honed and better. Especially from day to day, the quality of coconut oil produced by the Asmat women is getting better. The Asmat women will continue to attend training at the Merauke Resort Police's home industry tent. They will continue to assess their development until they can finally manage the home industry in their respective settlements. "We want to make the work home industry team in their area, so we have to train as well as possible, until we finally decide it is good," he said. "Now that the oil is good, there is another desire for him to make buttons for clothes. New basic training is also good at making buttons. So Monday they have a test," he continued. The tests given to dozens of Asmat women included management, preparation of people and goods, order of the tools used, maintenance of tools, packaging, and collection of leftover items from work, be it cooking oil or coconut shell remnants. The Resort Police Chief said that when training them, his party always taught them how to tidy up, prepare facilities and infrastructure for both tools and people before and after work so that the work results were better and the training equipment could be well maintained. For more than two weeks, the Asmat woman has succeeded in producing more than 100 liters of coconut oil. The police chief has prepared the packaging bottles. Especially for the coconut oil label, it is prepared by a partner from the Merauke Indonesian Young Entrepreneurs Association (HIPMI). Of course, the production of quality coconut oil will be marketed. Meanwhile, people who have attended the training will be given a certificate indicating they are proficient. "We will give certificates to those who have been trained and proficient, both men and women, but not all," said the Ambonese son. The Head of Resort Police continued that the first group who had been trained was only left with the exam because the training was stopped during the elections on December 9 and Christmas 2020. "The second group is currently the Asmat women and girls," he said.
