DPR/DOK Commission II Room BETWEEN

JAKARTA - Member of Commission II of the DPR Indrajaya supports the steps taken by the Ministry of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning/National Land Agency (ATR/BPN) which targets all land services to be fully digital by 2028 through the implementation of the Blockchain-Based Land System.

According to him, the application of blockchain technology in the land sector is a step forward to realize safer, more transparent and efficient land governance.

"With a blockchain-based system, land data will be better protected from changes or removal. This will strengthen public trust and minimize potential land disputes," said Indrajaya, Monday, October 6.

Indrajaya then gave an example of Estonia's success in implementing blockchain-based land systems. He said the country managed to use this technology for land registration, e-residency, and digital voting.

"As a result, the administrative process becomes faster, more efficient, and can be accounted for transparently," said the PKB legislator.

Nevertheless, Indrajaya assessed, the government must anticipate challenges in implementing the system by preparing the needs of technology infrastructure, stable internet connections, and large system development costs as important factors in the success of implementation.

"In addition to infrastructure readiness, training for land officials and the community is also very important. Without human resources understanding the blockchain system, this program is difficult to run optimally," he said.

Indrajaya also emphasized the importance of monitoring potential cyber attacks. Because according to him, the digital system is not yet completely safe.

"The layered security and periodic audit system must be part of the policy design," he appealed.

Therefore, he asked the Ministry of ATR/BPN to prepare human resources and technology infrastructure before full implementation.

"It is also necessary to provide training and education for land officials and the community needs to be intensified to ensure the effectiveness of the system," he said.

Then, continued Indrajaya, it is also necessary to carry out periodic supervision and evaluation to prevent and deal with the potential for cyber attacks. The government, he said, must also be transparent and public accountability remains the main principle in every stage of digitizing land services.

Digitalization of blockchain-based land is the future of public services. We fully support it, provided that its implementation must be carried out carefully and inclusively so that the benefits are truly felt by the wider community," concluded Indrajaya.
