JAKARTA - Minister of Housing and Spatial Planning Maruarar Sirait said President Prabowo Subianto directed that state land currently controlled by other parties can be used again for the benefit of the state and the people of Indonesia.
He stated that the government had found quite a lot of state assets, especially land owned by the State-Owned Enterprise (BUMN) Railway, which had been occupied by the public and other parties without optimal utilization in accordance with its provisions.
"What is certain is that the land of the country, which is the direction of President Prabowo, is used for the benefit of the country, including in the regions, several points that we will convey later," said Ara, his nickname as reported by ANTARA, Senini, April 6.
Ara together with the Head of BP BUMN Dony Oskaria and also the President Director of PT Kereta Api Indonesia (KAI) Bobby Rasyidin have conducted a direct review in the Bandung area and also Tanah Abang, Jakarta, where state-owned land is controlled by other parties.
Ara explained that the parties who control state land are diverse, including the community who have long occupied the area.
According to him, the government will prioritize a communication approach with the community in the land arrangement process.
"We will communicate, because it is state land. Of course it is used for the benefit of the state and the people of Indonesia," he said.
Ara said President Prabowo had given instructions to prepare a major step in arranging state assets in various regions. A number of strategic locations are being mapped by the government together with related ministries/institutions.
Financing the state land utilization program will involve Danantara Indonesia. The government has also prepared various schemes to facilitate the community, especially low-income people (MBR).
"In time, there will be steps that will be delivered by the President to make a significant change, how these state lands, as I said, are being prepared by Mr. Nusron, at some point the lands will be announced in time," explained Ara.
