Amid the government vision of agrarian reform, there is a need to rethink the actual impact of land certification for agricultural land.
More officials are believed to have been involved in a conspiracy to fake land certificates in East Jakarta and Bekasi, West Java, police said on Thursday.
Eleven village and district heads, as well as their staff in Bekasi, West Java, were named suspects in a conspiracy over the issuance of fake land certificates.
The Jakarta administration has granted Rp120 billion (US$ 8.6 million) to the Agrarian and Spatial Ministry to issue land certificates for 282,655 plots of land in the capital.
Land certification programs may have led to some unintended problems such as the increase of land markets, land tenure conflicts and deforestation in Indonesia.
Around 3,000 Papua residents received land certificates directly handed over by President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo in a ceremony at the Jayapura regent office in Gunung Merah, Sentani city, Jayapura, Papua, on Wednesday.
President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo handed over thousands of land certificates to residents of six regions in South Sulawesi during his official visit on Thursday.
One of the reasons hampering the acceleration of the oil palm tree replanting program is the fact that many plots still have unclear legal status, Agrarian and Land Spatial Planning Minister Sofyan Djalil said on Thursday.
In his remarks during the first ever oil palm replanting ceremony in Musi Banyuasin, South Sumatra, on Friday, President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo said the effort covered around 4,400 hectares.
The government is unlikely to meet its target of distributing 5 million land certificates this year as part of its land-reform program because by October it had distributed less than half the target.
