JAKARTA - Presidential Chief of Staff Dr. Moeldoko requested that the land acquisition issue for the construction of the Capital City of the Archipelago (IKN) be resolved immediately. Especially regarding the payment of land compensation that has been agreed upon. Moeldoko conveyed this, when meeting with the Deputy for Social Culture and Community Empowerment of the IKN Authority (OIKN), Alimuddin, at the Bina Graha building, Jakarta, Monday, April 10.

"If the price has been agreed upon, compensation must be paid immediately. Don't delay it. We should never ignore things like this," said Moeldoko.

Moeldoko admitted that paying compensation for land acquisition for IKN development is a complex problem and requires special attention. The Presidential Staff Office, he continued, will fully oversee the completion of land acquisition at IKN, including accelerating the compensation payment process, and ensuring that the affected communities actually receive compensation in accordance with the agreement.

"We (KSP) have experience in Wadas. As soon as KSP goes down and pushes, compensation payments there are immediately underway and completed. We want IKN to be able to run quickly. In the near future KSP will invite technical ministries and related institutions," he said.

Meanwhile, the Deputy for Social Culture and Community Empowerment of OIKN, Alimuddin, said that the indigenous people in IKN asked the government to provide replacement land for relocation. Because at this time, Alimuddin explained, indigenous peoples find it difficult to get land for new indigenous villages. They hope that there will be relocation, and need land of nine hectares,' said Alimuddin.

On that occasion, Alimuddin also emphasized the importance of the government realizing the balance of education at IKN, especially for primary and secondary education.
