Menteri ATR/BPN: Jawa Barat Jadi Target Percepatan Kota Lengkap

JAKARTA - Minister of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning/Head of the National Land Agency (ATR/BPN) Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY) said West Java is one of the provinces whose target of achieving the complete city will be accelerated.

"We want to pursue more and more complete urban districts in West Java, this is in the process," AHY said after attending the 2024 EL Run event in Bandung, West Java, quoted from Antara, Sunday, June 30.

AHY said, West Java is the province with the largest population in Indonesia. Land issues in this province are also considered quite complex.

AHY said that he often visits the West Java region to solve land problems, including eradicating the land mafia.

"I actually come to West Java quite often to convince that the work of the ATR/BPN ministries in West Java Province and the 27 regencies/cities here can be found and all the targets can be accelerated," said AHY.

The Minister of ATR/BPN also hopes to complete the land target for West Java and other provinces in Indonesia.

"If all electronic certification is done, I have declared it at Gedung Sate, please pray that we can accelerate again," said AHY.

Previously, AHY encouraged 16 cities/districts in West Java to follow the steps of 11 cities/districts with complete status, such as Bandung City.

He stated that ownership of land is fundamental for all citizens who are aspects of social justice.

The Bandung City Government (Pemkot) itself this year will declare itself a complete city, namely mapping land that has been officially registered.

Acting Mayor of Bandung, Bambang Tirtoyuliono said that currently the Bandung City Government is pursuing the remaining certification of land assets so that it can be 100 percent complete in 2024.

"Of the 750 assets, we have completed 500 certificates. Our work has 250 more certificates. And we declare that in 2024, Bandung City is ready to become a city with complete certificates," said Bambang in Bandung, Monday, June 10.
