SORONG - President Joko Widodo has revoked 16 palm oil plantation permits in West Papua. The land will be used by the local community to strengthen food crops.
"The oil palm plantation area whose permit was revoked by the central government in the West Papua region is used by the community for food reserves considering the current crisis situation," said Head of the KPK Supervision and Prevention Coordination Task Force Region V, Dian Patria when met in Sorong, Antara, Tuesday, July 19.
He said that the license revocation was due to various reasons. For example, it is a violation of operations to only cut and take wood without a permit, not to plant.
In addition, they do not pay taxes, do not report changes in shareholders, do not make plasma core systems, and there are also licenses that die but are not renewed but still operate.
The KPK continues to assist the regional government of West Papua Province to evaluate the remaining permits for oil palm plantations. The result of the meeting with the acting Governor of West Papua, he wanted the oil palm plantation land that had been revoked to be handed over to the Papuan people to manage.
"So that the ex-palm oil land can be used for food crops so that people have food reserves in times of crisis," said Dian.
