YOGYAKARTA - Minister of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning/Head of the National Land Agency (ATR/BPN) Hadi Tjahjanto called the Special Region of Yogyakarta a province free of land mafia.
This is because land certification through the Complete Systematic Land Registration (PTSL) program in DIY reaches 90 percent.
"Incidentally, Yogyakarta is based on the indicator that 90 percent of PTSL has actually become a land mafia-free province," said Hadi Tjahjanto after the One Dasawarsa Commemoration of the DIY Privileges Law in the Kepatihan Ward, Yogyakarta, Antara, Wednesday, September 28.
The former TNI Commander said that in accordance with data from the Ministry of ATR/BPN in Jakarta, the 90 percent achievement placed DIY in the highest ranking in the PTSL certificate registration program in Indonesia.
"Only 10 percent less because it is in Gunungkidul Regency where the soil contours are mounting and the people are having a hard time showing the limits," he said.
If the lack of 10 percent of the land parcel can be immediately pursued to be registered before 2023, according to him, DIY could be named the first complete province in Indonesia.
"You can install banners that DIY Province is the first complete province in Indonesia, you can install land mafia-free provincial banners because all parcels of land have been registered," he said.
With complete province status, Hadi continued, all land in DIY is ensured to be free from the practice of misappropriating the land mafia.
"When there is a land mafia that will play, it will be seen that this (land) belongs to Mr. A, Mr. B, so it is impossible to take it," he said.
Another advantage, said Hadi, is that investors will be busy coming to Yogyakarta because the legal certainty of land ownership is clear so that there are no worries being sued in the future.
According to him, the land mafia usually consists of five individuals collaborating, namely elements of BPN, unscrupulous lawyers, notaries, sub-district heads, and village heads.
"In the five of them, there is not only one collaboration, only the village head, there will be no land mafia," he said again.
Meanwhile, Yogyakarta Governor Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono X believes that the possibility of land mafia in his area is relatively small considering that 90 percent of the land parcels in DIY have been registered.
With this registration coverage, according to him, it is impossible for the land sale and purchase transaction by the land mafia in DIY to happen.
"As much as 90 percent have been recorded, there will also be no buying and selling transactions, finally what the Keraton land will play if (register) has not been completed," said the Sultan, who is also the King of the Yogyakarta Palace.
