00:00Papua is the second largest island in the world after Greenland.

00:07It is part of the Melanesian region which stretches across the Pacific Ocean.

00:13The Papua region is divided into two parts, namely West Papua, which is part of Indonesia,

00:20and Papua New Guinea, which is an independent country.

00:24Papua was formed millions of years ago due to the movement of tectonic plates.

00:30The Indo-Australian plate collides with the Pacific plate,

00:33creating majestic mountains and valleys,

00:36including the Jaya Wijaya mountains, home to Puncak Jaya,

00:40the highest point in Southeast Asia with an altitude of over 4,800 meters.

01:00Did you know that Puncak Jaya was once covered by a glacier?

01:05This proves that Papua has experienced major climate change in its history.

01:12Because Papua was part of the supercontinent Gondwana about 200 million years ago.

01:18When Gondwana broke up, Papua shifted north and became an important part of the tropical biodiversity region.

01:25Because of this, Papua is very rich, geographically and has extraordinary diversity.

01:34Starting from tropical rainforests, highlands,

01:37To the coast and small islands which are rich in coral reefs.

01:47Of course, it is equipped with the life of endemic species in it.
