President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo symbolically distributed about 2,700 land certificates to people in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB), at the Nurul Bilad Mosque in the Mandalika special economic zone (KEK), Central Lombok on Friday.
The central government has issued land certificates for islets C and D – as part of reclaimed land in Jakarta’s northern coast – to the Jakarta administration – months before the inauguration of governor-elect Anies Baswedan and his running mate, Sandiaga Uno, who opposed the reclamation projects.
The administration of President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo will likely fail to reach its target of distributing a total of 5 million land certificates to people across the country this year, as data shows that as of June the Agrarian and Spatial Ministry only managed to hand over about 50,000 of them.
The government does not know how to pay for its ambitious land certification program as the Finance Ministry has not decided on a scheme to cover a funding shortfall, although the Agrarian and Spatial Planning Ministry wants the money to be disbursed this month.
