"It has to be assured that the House should invite leaders and also representatives of community in Papua to formulate the policy, which is aimed at giving welfare to people," he said.
Reflecting on previous special autonomy that has been implemented in Papua province since 2001 and West Papua since 2008, he said the central government has to improve many things, including evaluation of the transparency in the use of regional budget by regional administrations.
"And you also have to question the Papua and West Papua province administrations on how they used the huge amount of budget given by central government ," he said
However, Rasyid said he has seen chances for the development of Papua and West Papua with the special autonomy plus.
He explained that in the special autonomy plus the government needs to strengthen authority at provincial administrations and rises budget allocated in the region while conducting proper monitoring on its implementation.
