PDP stands for Presidium Dewan Papua or Papua Presidium Council.  PDP was established on Papua National Congress II 2000, in Port Numbay, capital of West Papua on 29 May - 4 June 2000. PDP is the re-emerged form of the New Guinea Council, established by the Crown of the Netherlands on 1 December 1961 by the name of the Nieuw Guinea Raad, in the Papua National Congress I 1961, which legally still has the legal base to act representing Papuans in West Papua. The Gazette of the establishment of Nieuw Guinea Council and the approval of West Papua Flag, National Anthem , the Name of the Nation and the name of the State and the geographical boundaries have never been legally cancelled. Therefore, legally, under the UN De-colonisation Rules, West Papua is still a colonised state, which was re-colonised by Indonesia.

Radongkir, 15 April 2003 "Jikalau Engkau Anak Allah, jatuhkanlah diriMu dari sini, dan Ia (Bapa di Surga) akan memerintahkan malaikat-malaikat-Nya di Surga untuk menahan Engkau agar kaki-Mu tidak terantuk batu." Ini merupakan salah satu perkataan Iblis yang disampaikan kepada Yesus, ketika Ia dibawa Iblis keatas bubungan bait Allah.
