The Head of Tembagapura District, Dev Richart Tatiratu, S.E., stated that synergy between all elements of society is essential to support development in the Tembagapura region, particularly in the field of education.
“We invite the entire community to jointly support every development program aimed at improving community welfare, including the planned school construction in Tembagapura District.
