JAKARTA - The Ministry and Spatial Planning / National Land Agency (ATR / BPN) said that it had carried out agrarian reform of 14.5 million hectares (ha) in the last decade.

Secretary-General of the Ministry of ATR/BPN, Suyus Windayana, said that his party's policy of restructuring the spatial planning was maximal legalizing assets, which was 12.56 million ha.

"So, a total of 9 million hectares that must be reformed (agrarian), we have realized 14.5 million hectares. Indeed, the most legalized assets are around 12.56 million hectares, which is from the redistribution of 1.86 million hectares," said Suyus, quoted on Friday, October 25.

Suyus said, to spur the achievement of agrarian reform in the country, his party would coordinate with the Minister of Forestry Raja Juli Antoni to immediately realize the distribution of land legality resulting from the release of forests that belong to the community.

"I think later we will continue to discuss with Mr. Raja Juli from the Deputy Minister (ATR/BPN) to become Minister of Forestry. How can we immediately realize the releases of these forest areas to be distributed to the public. Especially those that already have community control," he said.

It is known that agrarian reform is one of the national priority programs that was improved by the Joko Widodo (Jokowi) administration era. The goal is to build Indonesia from the edge and improve the quality of life. "Because this is part of economic equality and social justice," he added.
