Agung Sedayu Group Responds to Land Ownership Certificates Issuance in Pagar Laut
In a recent development, it has been reported that the coastal area in Tangerang now holds Hak Guna Bangunan (HGB) and Hak Milik (SHM) certificates. This news has implicated the Agung Sedayu Group (ASG) as being affiliated with one of the companies involved in these certificates.
Response from Agung Sedayu Group’s Legal Representative
Upon gathering information, it was discovered that there are a total of 234 SHM certificates under the name of PT Intan Agung Makmur, 20 SHM certificates belonging to PT Cahaya Inti Sentosa, and 9 certificates under individual names. Additionally, there are 17 Hak Milik certificates in that area.
Clarification from ASG’s Legal Counsel
In response to these allegations, Muannas Alaidid, the legal representative of Agung Sedayu Group, clarified that not all the 30 km coastal area is under SHM belonging to PIK 2. He compared this issue to the misconception that all PIK 2 projects are national strategic projects (PSN).
Investigation and Coordination with Authorities
Furthermore, Muannas emphasized that the SHM certificates owned by PIK have gone through proper procedures. However, he did not disclose the specific company name under which these certificates were issued.
Regarding the affiliation of PT Cahaya Intan Sentosa (PT CIS) with ASG, Muannas recommended that members of the media verify this information directly through the Ministry of Law and Human Rights (AHU) database.
In light of Minister Nusron Wahid’s directive to investigate the SHGB and SHM issues in Desa Kohod, Muannas highlighted the importance of coordination with the Geospatial Information Agency to verify the positioning of these land certificates.
Conclusively, Muannas pointed out discrepancies in the land classification, indicating that the areas certified as SHGB and SHM were previously agricultural or fishpond lands that have now been repurposed for commercial use. This raises questions about the legitimacy of the land ownership certificates issued.
This ongoing investigation underscores the complexity of land ownership issues in Indonesia and the importance of thorough verification processes to ensure transparency and legality in property transactions.
