Head of Rawa Badak Selatan Village, Koja, North Jakarta, Suhaena spoke up regarding the permit to build a building (IMB) in the Tanah Merah area which was affected by the Pertamina Depot fire, Plumpang, Koja, North Jakarta.
He explained that the Tanah Merah area was only legal to stay. However, people do not have an IMB for land ownership.
"Yes, if that's the area, IMB. So just to acknowledge the building, but not for land, ” said Suhaena to reporters, Sunday, March 5.
When asked further about the IMB in the Tanah Merah area, Suhaena was reluctant to answer.
"I'm sorry to be called," he said.
Previously, the PDIP and PSI factions of the DKI Jakarta DPRD said that the former Governor of DKI Jakarta, Anies Baswedan, was also guilty of the impact of the fire in residential areas in Tanah Merah Bawah, Rawabadak Selatan, North Jakarta which spread from the Pertamina Plumpang Depot.
Member of the PDIP faction of the DKI Jakarta DPRD, Gilbert Simanjuntak, said that since the beginning of the land in Tanah Merah Bawah, residential areas should not be built. However, during the 2017 DKI gubernatorial election campaign, Anies made a promise to residents who had settled in Tanah Merah. Anies admitted that he would legalize land ownership there.
Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (Ahok) when he was still the Governor of DKI in 2016 also reminded Anies not to carelessly make his political promises.
Especially in Tanah Merah, Ahok at that time emphasized that the area was a buffer zone on Pertamina's land.
There is a threat that threatens if residents establish settlements there. However, Anies did not heed Ahok's warning. In 2021, Anies issued a temporary building permit (IMB) in Tanah Merah as a solution so that local residents get their basic rights, namely water and electricity.
"From the start, it was known that the Pertamina Plumpang Depot should not be occupied at a certain distance. The land belongs to PT Pertamina which is occupied by residents, but Anies while serving as Governor is given an IMB, which clearly contradicts the regulations," Gilbert said on Sunday, March 5.
Gilbert views that the IMB while the land for Tanah Merah that Anies urged during his tenure made matters more complicated, because it seemed more concerned with being elected governor with campaign promises even though it had to hit the rules.
"This mistake should not be repeated. Currently, with the fire victims, residents should be relocated to avoid repeated disasters in the future," he said.
