JAKARTA - A group of people on behalf of the People's Coalition Against Eviction (KRMP) came to DKI Jakarta City Hall to collect the promise of DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan to revoke Governor's Regulation Number 207 of 2016 concerning Controlling the Use/Control of Land Without Entitled Permits.

Gubernatorial Regulation 27/2016 was issued by Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (Ahok) while serving as Governor of DKI in 2016. Ahok often uses this regulation to carry out forced evictions.

Then, when Anies served as Governor of DKI in 2017 until now, the governor's regulation is still being used by him to carry out forced evictions. In fact, this is not in accordance with Anies' narrative during the 2017 Pilkada campaign, which did not want to evicte residents' settlements.

KRMP representative as well as public lawyer for LBH Jakarta, Jihan Fauziah Hamdo revealed that his party together with representatives of the communities affected by this eviction had previously sent a letter requesting the revocation of Pergub 207/2016 on February 10, 2022.

Then, on April 6, 2022, KRMP also had a direct audience with Anies and his TGUPP at the City Hall of DKI Jakarta. At that time, Anies had promised to revoke Ahok's eviction regulation.

"Anyway, from the results of the hearing, there is an official report stating that Anies is committed to revoking the Pergub. In addition to revoking it, during the process, until there is a provision or certainty that a moratorium will be carried out, so that there will be no evictions in villages in DKI Jakarta," said Jihan when met at DKI City Hall, Thursday, August 4.

Half a year since the first hearing passed, Anies Anies has yet to fulfill his promise to revoke the governor's regulation. Therefore, two months before the end of Anies' term of office, the KRMP again asked for the promise.

"What we firmly ask Mr. Anies Baswedan to meet us and formally convey directly how the process is. If the process fails, it is conveyed to us in a transparent manner. What we need is certainty whether this regulation is successfully revoked or not," said Jihan.

On that occasion, Jihan explained the reason his party demanded Anies revoke Pergub 207/2016. The evictions that used the governor's regulation during Anies' leadership of DKI took place at Pancoran Buntu II, South Jakarta; Vegetable Garden, Ciracas, East Jakarta; Bukit Duri, Tebet, South Jakarta; and Sunter Agung, Tanjung Priok, North Jakarta.

"There are seven reasons why the gubernatorial regulation should be revoked. The first is that this regulation is a form of vigilantism. The second is to bypass the legislature that has been mentioned earlier. ," said Jihan.

"Fourthly, this regulation violates AUPB. Fifth, it violates citizens' constitutional rights. Sixth, it violates human rights. Lastly, this use was conveyed because it was derived from Perppu 51 of 1960, which became the basis for the formation of a governor's regulation. It does not meet the needs of the people of DKI Jakarta. So, the revocation of this regulation must be carried out," he added.
