This city was once called Port Numbay, and now it's called Jayapura
One of the common sights of Jayapura is native Papuan women who sell vegetables
They are called mama-mama Papua
This footage was taken in 2007
There is no roof, mama-mama are bothered when the downpour occurs
On September 14, 2009
the mama-mama asked the Government of Papua Province
to provide a viable market in downtown Jayapura
It was all done to urge
the setting up of a market that Governor Barnabas Suebu promised
This is Robert Jitmau, he is a companion to the mama-mama Papua since 2004
The faces of the mama-mama show
the faces of injustice Papuans as a whole experienced to date
At the end of 2010, while the market was being built by the Government of Papua Province
Victory for the mama-mama in the market was brief, their earnings were slumped
If successful Yes 60, 70, Yes to 100 if the daily practice
If it's not sold, around 20 or 30

Where we're selling here in Papua, the mama-mama market is not crowded
But over there in Mesran it's crowded. Is the Government in Papua only providing for those newcomers?
This is the market of Mesran, its location less than 1 km away from the market of the mama-mama Papua
This place is a city transport terminal so it filled the market activities
Its location is strategic, there are more buyers than at the market of the mama-mama
The meeting of the mama-mama and the Government on February 1, 2011
agreed that the market was in the Mesran terminal only sells manufactured goods
and doesn't sell farmed produce, when in fact farmed produce is also sold in this market
and the mama-mama are not able to compete
While the mama-mama are waiting for a permanent market, Jayapura Mall is under construction
Actions taken by the Government until today, are arguably still half-hearted
In a sense, he provided the model to build the market, but didn't follow-up
Before it's built, don't abandon the mama-mama, but reward them
A variety of local Government Act half-heartedly pushing mama-mama back protest
They called for closing the Mesran market
And order for the construction of a viable market for the mama-mama Papua in Jayapura to be immediately implemented
Mama-mama Papua didn't come here for nothing
We ask that you please pay attention to our HOUSE'S mama-mama Papua is here
Eight, urging the Government to no longer build the Mall and shops in the town of Jayapura
