Descriptionout of great waves, from pacific oceans, there is a sound, a song of praise in sweet voice, to the noble land, unto the great land, with its white shore, and its mountain that rises up to the highest clouds in the sunny sky. such is the land in which I delight "West Papua" A Song composed by: Pastor I.S Kijne. The song -translated from Malay to English Walking down the only protocol street in Sorong City, you will pass through a container harbor, a large commercial port in Sorong, West Papua. To the right side is the Mamberamo Hotel. After the harbor and Hotel, just on the left side of the road bordering the beach, with wide views of the distant sea and islands, stands about one to two meters thick wall along the coastline. Not less than three kilometers, the wall was built as a fence, embankment or even as breakwater in the west wind season. Uniquely, every day along the wall is always crowded by city residents, to just unwind and enjoy the afternoon ocean view. The "Berlin wall" in Sorong City seems to be a landmark as public need space, to gather and socialize the citizen. It is also a favorite location. You can spend the afternoon at Tebok Berlin - enjoying the sunset. Such a long beachspace will be crowded by citizen when the sea is calm ... old, young people, children spend an hour swimming and sunning under the morning sun before start the whole day of their activities. But instead, do not try to go near and use this beach in any activities during the waves season. The Sorong citizen calls it the Berlin Wall. remind us of the wall bordered both Germany, the West and the East before united and finally torn down. "Berlin" is short word for "Berlindung". We usually call it " Tembok Berlin" (in Indonesia) which means "Protection Wall". The atmosphere of Berlin Wall along the night was no less interesting. More than 50's seafood tents row neatly set up along side of the wall change the face of the Berlin Wall into a typical culinary tour. Fresh fish, shrimp, squid and crabs are the main menu in each tent. ... really intrigue us. Copyright: Jason Sentuf
