TANAH DATAR - Minister of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning/National Land Agency ATR/BPN Hadi Tjahjanto said there are still 352,000 hectares (Ha) of customary land in West Sumatra Province (West Sumatra) that will be certified.
"Currently, we have only submitted approximately 12 hectares, but the remaining 352 thousand hectares must be certified immediately," said Minister of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning/National Land Agency ATR/BPN Hadi Tjahjanto in Tanah Datar Regency as reported by ANTARA, Tuesday, October 10.
This was conveyed by the Minister of ATR/BPN after submitting a certificate of land management rights for the customary people of Nagari customary law (village) Sungayang, Tanah Datar Regency, West Sumatra.
Minister Hadi said the issuance of the customary land certificate in Tanah Datar Regency could not be separated from the assistance of a member of Commission II of the DPR RI Rezka Oktogia who continued to support and supervise the performance of ATR/BPN.

In addition, the issuance of the three certificates of customary land management rights in Sungayang was also due to the assistance of the Regent of Tanah Datar, and the Chancellor of Andalas University, Prof. Yuliandri, who had discussed the legal principles of customary land.
"I hope that with this collaborative synergy, we can solve the problems of customary land, thankfully before the end of 2024 everything will be resolved," he hoped.
In addition to the customary land conflict, the former TNI Commander said that there are still many agrarian problems that must be resolved, one of which is related to protected rice fields. Moreover, Tanah Datar Regency is a rice supplier in West Sumatra.
Meanwhile, the Deputy Governor of West Sumatra, Audy Joinaldy, said that with the issuance of three certificates of land management rights for the indigenous nagari community, it could spur investment climate growth.
"Today is only Tanah Datar Regency, but in the future we will encourage regencies and other cities to do the same thing but there must be a basis for regional regulations," he said.
