History
On 31 December 2015, President Joko Widodo, accompanied by First Lady Iriana, visited Kenyam, Nduga Regency, Papua Province, to review the construction of the road that will connect Nduga and Wamena. The trip of Widodo and First Lady Iriana and his entourage from Wamena to Kenyam, Nduga Regency was taken for 2 hours by changing transportation modes from Hercules VVIP A 1314 and Heli Super Puma TNI AU. On that occasion President Jokowi also stated that, in addition to building a road leading to Wamena, a large port at Mumugu (in Asmat Regency of South Papua Province) will also be opened and connected to the Nduga Regency. With the opening of this large port, the logistics and materials from and to Mumugu can be distributed using land routes that have penetrated all districts in Papua.[http://presidenri.go.id/blusukan-2/resmikan-jalan-dan-kunjungi-pasar.html Resmikan Jalan dan Kunjungi Pasar] - PresidenRI.go.id - 31 December 2015
