Jayapura – Papuan academician Dr. Alifius Aninam, S.Th., M.Pd., has urged Papuan students, both those studying within and outside Papua, to remain focused on their studies and avoid involvement in organizations that oppose the government. According to him, such involvement could be detrimental to the students’ future.
“I encourage all students pursuing their education in Papua and beyond to dedicate themselves to their studies,” he stated on Monday (24/2).
Dr. Alifius also reminded students not to be influenced by views or ideologies that could negatively impact their lives and future.
“If there are dynamics arising from political factors, as intellectuals, we must be cautious and wise. Our actions should not end up harming ourselves. Let us work together to create a peaceful atmosphere, both on and off campus,” he added.
