Agrarian Conflicts Escalate in Aceh Singkil, Transparency of STDB Granting Questioned
The issuance of Cultivation Registration Certificate (STDB) to four farmer groups in Danau Paris District, Aceh Singkil, sparked controversy.
Chairman of DPD-CIC Aceh Singkil, Khairul Amri, questioned the transparency of the STDB granting process, especially regarding the role of the facilitating Non-Governmental Organization (NGO).
In the STDB handover event which took place on Wednesday, August 21, 2024, a number of related parties were present, including representatives of the YEL NGO who claimed to be working with the local government.
However, Khairul Amri doubts the real purpose of the NGO’s involvement.
Concerns grew stronger after information emerged that the STDB recipient farmer groups immediately registered to partner with PT Delima Makmur.
In fact, the plantation company still has a number of unresolved issues, such as land conflicts with indigenous peoples and has not fulfilled the obligation to provide 20 percent plasma land according to regulations.
Khairul Amri emphasized that PT Delima Makmur had violated a number of laws and regulations related to plantations.
He explained, referring to the Decree of the Minister of ATR / BPN No. 92 / MEN / ATR / BPN: 92/MEN/ATR/BPN/2021 and a decision letter from the Regional Secretary of Aceh Singkil in 2017, which clearly regulates the company’s obligation to provide plasma land for the surrounding community.
“The obligation of the HGU applicant is to provide 20 percent of plasma land, not to partner,” said Khairul Amri, Friday, August 23, 2024.
As the head of the Prosperous Farmers Group of the HTR program in Biskang Village, Khairul Amri feels that the community has been harmed and their rights neglected. He considered that the local government seemed to favor the company rather than protect the interests of the community.
“We have repeatedly complained, but the government seems not to care,” he said.
The agrarian conflict in Aceh Singkil highlights the importance of transparency and accountability in natural resource management. The community hopes that the local government can take firm steps to resolve this issue and ensure justice for all parties.
