TANAH DATAR - Ministry of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning/National Land Agency (ATR/BPN) encourages local governments to accelerate the completion of 2,000 spatial planning documents (RDTR).

"The target is 2,000 RDTR. Currently, only 345 out of 2,000 have been completed," said ATR/BPN Minister Hadi Tjahjanto on the sidelines of handing over the certificate of land management rights for the customary people of the Sungayang customary law community (village), Tanah Datar Regency, West Sumatra, reported by ANTARA, Tuesday, October 30.

Given the minimal achievement of RDTR, Hadi encouraged relevant stakeholders to immediately execute it.

"If we look at Indonesia, which is so wide, it should have 2,000 RDTR but only 345, it is still very lacking," he said.

Hadi explained that when RDTR can be completed, including the completion of customary land certificates, investors entering an area will also be comfortable. Because, there is legal certainty over the land.

"Investors will definitely be eager to invest," he said.

Sementara itu, Wakil Gubernur Sumatera Barat Audy Joinaldy mengatakan secara umum banyak daerah di Indonesia hingga kini belum mempunyai dokumen RDTR. Padahal, hal tersebut penting dalam menetapkan zonasi.

As a result, he continued, there were many mistakes or chaos in determining the zoning of industrial development, housing, agriculture, government and so on.

Regarding the handover of the land rights certificate for the indigenous Nagari legal community (village) Sungayang, Tanah Datar Regency, Tanah Datar Regent Eka Putra expressed his gratitude to Minister Hadi Tjahjanto for fulfilling his promise.

Regent Eka Putra said the handover of the certificate was a pilot project for other regions in Indonesia that have customary land.
