Minister of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning/Head of the National Land Agency (ATR/BPN) Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY) handed over 30 land certificates door to door (from house to house) to local residents.

"This handover is part of the government's efforts to provide legal certainty and increase the value of the land economy for the community," said AHY, in Samarinda, East Kalimantan, as reported by ANTARA, Wednesday, February 28.

He hopes that, with this certificate, residents can have legal certainty over the land they have and use for economic activities, such as applying for a business capital loan.

Residents who received certificates in Sungai Pinang Dalam Village, Sungai Pinang District, Samarinda Sayid Muhammad Al Attas expressed his gratitude and gratitude.

"The government has made it easier for the land certification process. Thank you, especially to the Minister AHY who was present to immediately submit this certificate," he said.

Sayid Muhammad Al Attas also appreciated the steps taken by Minister AHY who had gone directly to the community to understand and resolve existing problems. "This shows his commitment to serving the community and facilitating land certificate matters," he said.

This fast and free land certification process, he hopes, can continue, so that people can more easily take care of various needs related to their land.

The Regional Office of the Ministry of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning/National Land Agency (ATR/BPN) of East Kalimantan targets all parcels of land in this province and North Kalimantan to be fully registered by 2025.

"Last year, the coverage reached around 80 percent of the land parcels registered in East Kalimantan and Kaltara, signaling that the plots of land had been spatially mapped and juridically, equipped with certificates," said Head of the ATR/BPN Regional Office of East Kalimantan Asnaedi, in Samarinda, some time ago.

Asnaedi said that until now in East Kalimantan, only the city of Bontang, whose entire land area has been fully registered, has been declared a Complete City by the Minister of ATR/BPN.

Meanwhile, the cities of Balikpapan and Samarinda are still considered to have left most of the land that has not been registered, so it needs to be motivated by the local government's policy of exemption of Land and Building Rights (BPHTB).
