Settlement of Indemnification of Customary Community Land in Land Procurement for Developers for Public Interest

Abstract

Research with the title Settlement of Indemnification of Customary Community Land in Land Procurement for Development in the Public Interest in principle the principle of customary law communities is very closely related to customary land, especially regarding patterns of control and use. However, over time and the strengthening of the role of the State in various fields, the role of indigenous peoples in its development has faced various challenges and is increasingly weakening before the State. The customary law community is a party that is very vulnerable to land acquisition for public interests. Under the pretext of public interest, often the rights of indigenous and tribal peoples are taken over without any attempt to replace them with other land ownership rights. Many problems have arisen between the central government and regional governments, investors and indigenous and tribal peoples related to the implementation of development and investment on land which is the property of indigenous and tribal peoples.
