TARAKAN - Indonesian President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) handed over 13,455 land rights certificates to communities in Tarakan City and Bulungan Regency, North Kalimantan (Kaltara).
"I am glad that this afternoon, you all have certificates. This is a legal certainty of the land rights you have," said President Jokowi during the handover of land certificates as shown on YouTube by the Presidential Secretariat from Tarakan, Kaltara, Tuesday, December 21. .
The President admitted that he often hears complaints from the public regarding land disputes. The dispute is also vulnerable to harming the community who owns the land because the community does not yet have a certificate as proof of land ownership.
Therefore, the President asked his staff to expedite the completion of the issuance of land certificates for the public.
"I ordered the Minister at that time, on the helicopter, 'Sir, what belongs to the community must be certified immediately and give it to them', so that they don't come from outside, either from Jakarta, or from outside, suddenly. hold the usufructuary rights or property rights certificates," said the President.
In the last 5 years, said the President, the Government has given around 25 million certificates to the public. A total of 41 million other certificates have been completed and are ready to be given to the public.
The President appreciated all parties who worked hard to accelerate the completion of land certificates for the community.
"I thank the Regional Office of the BPN (National Land Agency), the BPN offices in districts/cities that I heard are working hard to complete what is called a certificate. Don't let anyone take care of the certificate for years and it hasn't been completed. give it immediately and quickly," said the President.
