Kapanlagi.com - Comedian Arie Kriting caused a stir on social media after expressing his opinion regarding the appointment of Nagita Slavina as the ambassador of PON XX, which will be held in Papua. According to the husband of actress Indah Permatasari, the beginning of his expression of concern originated from the request of his friends.

"Basically, my older brothers asked me to help voice their concerns, so I voiced them. You can maybe ask brother Jakaerlimena or maybe brother Stefan Wali, there are also younger siblings from Papua who have spoken up. I'm just conveying what their grievances are, I'm just helping to convey it. You can ask the older brothers from Papua for more clarity," said Arie Kriting, met in the Senayan area, Jakarta, on Thursday (3/6/2021).

"They've been expressing this for two to three days, but no one paid attention, so I just helped out," he said.

1. Tuai Pro Kontra

Regarding the pros and cons that have occurred, Arie admitted that he doesn't mind. At least he has conveyed the aspirations of his friends.

"It's okay, there are pros and cons. But I'm happy that there are some who support. Just pray for us, because we are only conveying aspirations. I am only conveying the aspirations of my friends. I have conveyed some of them for a long time and maybe it's better to ask them for more clarity," he said.

2. Komentar Arie Kriting

For KLovers who are not aware of Arie Kriting's comment on his Instagram account, here is Arie Kriting's concern about Nagita Slavina's appointment as the ambassador for Pon XX.

"Actually, from the beginning, I felt something strange about this, but I was waiting for a response from the native Papuan people regarding this matter. The appointment of Nagita Slavina as the ambassador for Pon XX Papua can ultimately lead to Cultural Appropriation. The figure of a Papuan woman should be represented directly by a Papuan woman. But we also realize that Kak Nagita's capabilities in carrying out the mission of socializing for Pon XX are very much needed.

My solution is that the ambassador for Pon XX Papua should still be a Papuan woman. Lift up one of the Papuan women figures, @mikhelia, @nereputri, or whoever is deemed adequate.

This Papuan woman figure can accompany brother Boaz Solossa as the ambassador for Pon XX Papua. Brother Raffi Ahmad and Nagita Slavina can be positioned as friends of the ambassador for Pon XX Papua because it is clear that their strength in promoting the socialization of Pon XX Papua is much needed.

In my opinion, with the presence of a Papuan woman figure as the ambassador for Pon XX Papua, it will avoid Cultural Appropriation and be a positive signal for our recognition of Indonesia's diversity.

In the end, the success of PON Papua will not only be achieved in the implementation of the event, but also in successfully becoming a unifying force for the nation. Let's show and be proud of our diversity as the Indonesian nation." Hello everyone," she closed.
