  • Pokigron, in de volksmond ook vaak aangeduid als Atjoni naar de aanlegkade waar veel boten vertrekken, is een dorp in het hart van Suriname (district Sipaliwini), bewoond door circa 500 Saramacca boslandcreolen. Het dorp is gelegen aan de linkeroever van de Boven-Surinamerivier, net ten zuidwesten van het Brokopondostuwmeer (vroeger het Prof. dr. ir. W.J. van Blommesteinmeer) en neemt voor het verkeer naar het binnenland een bijzonder positie in. Het is namelijk het laatste dorp dat vanuit de hoofdstad Paramaribo nog over de weg te bereiken is. De aanlegkade Atjoni is daarmee een belangrijk overstappunt voor het binnenlandse transport. Boten verbinden vanaf hier de overige dorpen van Boven-Suriname. (nl)
  • Pokigron ist ein überwiegend durch Saramaccaner (Marrons) bewohntes Dorf in Suriname im Distrikt Sipaliwini, unmittelbar südlich vom Brokopondo-Stausee, am linken Ufer des Suriname. Pokigron wird durch circa 500 Personen bewohnt. Das Dorf ist für den Verkehr in das Buschland von besonderer Bedeutung, da es der letzte Ort am Suriname ist, der von der Hauptstadt Paramaribo aus über den Landweg zu erreichen ist. Der letzte Teilabschnitt der ehemaligen Sandpiste zwischen Paranam und Pokigron ist seit 2011 asphaltiert. (de)
