YOGYAKARTA - Chairman of Commission IV DPR Siti Hediyanti Hariyadi (Titiek Suharto) asked the public not to prejudice and suspected that there was a bribery for permits in the forest area behind landslides and floods in Aceh, North Sumatra, and South Sumatra.
"We should not suuzon," Titiek told reporters at the Yogyakarta Governor's office complex, Yogyakarta, Monday, December 8.
Titiek said the process of forming the Land Function Transfer Working Committee (Panja) was still in progress in the DPR. Therefore, the public should not rush to accuse the cause of the disaster.
"Panja kita semua kerja semua. Nanti tinggal saja ditunjuk salah satu wakit yang," tegasnya.
Even so, he agreed that the land transfer permit must be corrected. "It is evaluated in total," said Titiek.
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Environment (KLH) said there was a big contribution from land clearing activities for both hydropower, industrial plantation forests, mining and oil palm plantations behind the large floods in Sumatra. This is because these activities trigger pressure to decrease wood material and erosion in large quantities.
"From the helicopter's overview, it is clear that land clearing activities for hydropower, industrial plantation forests, mining, and oil palm plantations are clearly seen," said the Deputy for Environmental Law Enforcement KLH/BPLHRizal Irawan in an official statement from the Ministry of Environment on Friday, December 5.
