On Sunday, 27 October 2024, the 509 Task Forces Patrol Team held the areal security of the Sugapa District, especially the Bilogai Village. Local people supported this activity, and the whole process ran well. This initiative was made possible by the support of the local people, whose involvement was crucial for the operation's success.

Commander of the 509 Task Forces, Lieutenant Colonel Dian Dessiawan Setyadi, emphasized that Soldiers should focus on every effort to create a safe and peaceful situation in Papua. Therefore, on Sunday morning, the Soldiers of Bilogai Post, led by First Lieutenant Abdian, planned an area security activity by checking vehicles entering and exiting the village. In the context of synergy between the TNI and local stakeholders, 1LT Abdian took advantage of the time to conduct area security by inviting local community figures to participate.

Eventually, the program was enthusiastically welcomed by the residents and coordinated by a local community leader, Mr. Lukas Sondegau. The synergy between the community and the TNI Task Forces in securing this area is carried out by checking every vehicle entering and exiting the village. "We are happy that the TNI collaborates with the people to secure the Sugapa area. The improved security situation after the activity has reassured us that Papua is safe," said Mr. Lukas Sondegau, expressing his satisfaction.

After receiving the activity report, the HABEMA Commanding General, Brigadier General Lucky Avianto, acknowledged the 509 Task Forces’ initiative to successfully involve the synergy of residents in conducting area security activities in the area of Sugapa District. His words: "The 509 Task Forces' initiative is a testament to TNI's commitment to provide security support as an effort to accelerate development in the Papua region." This acknowledgment from the highest authority in HABEMA underscores the significant impact of such initiatives on the region's development, instilling profound hope and optimism about their potential to positively shape the region's future.
