188,000 ha distributed in land reform drive

INDONESIA’S Agrarian and Spatial Planning Minister Sofyan Djalil has announced that the government's agrarian reform programme distributed 188,000 hectares of land to the people over four years.

“In the last four years under President Joko Widodo's leadership, the government has [taken a serious stance] in addressing land and spatial planning issues,” the said. 
He said the government had also started to address neglected and idle land, including plots with right-to-build (HGB) certificates and those with other land certificates that the property's owner had not utilised.
Sofyan said the agrarian reform programme also included redistributing land that had been taken over by large corporations and restoring the property to private ownership.
Through the comprehensive systematic registration programme (PTSL), the government aimed to assure legal certainty over land ownership to reduce land disputes and to facilitate smooth infrastructure development across the country, the minister added.
Apart from intensifying its land distribution, the government had also introduced its popular land certification programme.
