The Issues with Land Use in Indonesia for Investment Purposes

Resumen

In order to address various challenges and dynamics of societal changes, especially in the rapidly developing economic field, the problematic issue of legal regulations, particularly related to land use for investment purposes in Indonesia, is currently not adaptive or can be considered significantly out of date. The unclear status of land ownership rights used for investment purposes, ongoing inequalities and injustices in land control, ownership, use, and utilization, the unresolved problem of land misuse and conversion, and the predominance of speculative activities in land ownership administration by parties who are not the true landowners are all contributing factors to this situation. To give investors investing in Indonesia legal certainty, legislative adjustments to control property use for investment reasons and severe law enforcement against speculative land ownership acts must be made.
