BANJARBARU - A resident of Banjarmasin City, David Pangestu, again questioned the slow response of the Banjarbaru City Land Office regarding the implementation of the court's decision which has become legally binding in a land dispute in Cempaka Village, Banjarbaru City.
David stated that until now he had not received an official response to the letter submitted to the Banjarbaru City Land Office on May 25, 2026. The letter contains a request for an explanation regarding the failure to implement the State Administrative Court (PTUN) decision on the Certificate of Ownership (SHM) Number 10141 located on Jalan Aneka Tambang, Cempaka Village, Cempaka District, Banjarbaru City.
According to David, the letter was a follow-up to the direction of the Ombudsman of the Republic of Indonesia for South Kalimantan after he submitted a report on alleged maladministration related to the court's decision that had not been implemented.
The report was submitted during a meeting with the Ombudsman of the Republic of Indonesia for South Kalimantan on May 21, 2026 and was received directly by the Head of the Ombudsman of the Republic of Indonesia for South Kalimantan, Hadi Rahman.
In a letter sent to the Banjarbaru City Land Office, David asked for an explanation regarding the implementation of the Supreme Court Decision Number 103K/TUN/2020 dated March 9, 2020 which was said to have the force of law and was strengthened by the Banjarmasin PTUN Execution Decree Number 34/PEN-EKS/2018/PTUN.BJM.
However, until the change of leadership at the Banjarbaru City Land Office from Ahmad Suhaimi to Riyanto S. Tosse, according to David, there was no written answer or administrative explanation that he received.
"We have taken administrative mechanisms in accordance with the Ombudsman's instructions by submitting an official letter to the Banjarbaru City Land Office. However, to date, there has been no written response explaining the status of the implementation of the court's decision and the administrative follow-up that has been carried out," said David Pangestu.
He hopes that the South Kalimantan Representative of the Indonesian Ombudsman will continue to monitor the process of resolving the issue to ensure administrative certainty and legal certainty for the parties involved.
David also asked the new Head of the Banjarbaru City Land Office, Riyanto S. Tosse, to immediately evaluate the handling of the case and provide an official explanation regarding the steps that have been and will be taken.
According to him, clarity of attitude from the Land Office is very necessary so that disputes do not continue to drag on and to ensure the principle of legal certainty and administrative order of land can be implemented.
"Clarity of attitude and administrative actions from the Land Office is needed to prevent the escalation of disputes and to ensure the implementation of the principles of legal certainty and administrative order of land," said David.
Until this news was compiled, there was no official statement from the Banjarbaru City Land Office regarding the letter delivered by David Pangestu and the development of the implementation of the court decision in question.
