National Land Agency BPN - Republic of Indonesia (1995):
International Workshop on the Implementation of Rural Land Consolidation

9.4.2 Condition After Land Consolidation

From the result of extension and deliberation, it is believed that there is an increase understanding on the advantage of Land Consolidation, so that all land holders or farmers in the Lake Limbo coast are eager to join with the project and, therefore, the Spatial Design of Land Consolidation object can easily be agreed upon as well as the amount of land contribution 15% can be reached.

The eagerness of farmers to join the project is seen on the number of participants identified amounted to 1,744 parcels covering 985 hectares, while in the implementation there are 1,686 participants who hold 2,192 parcels covering 1,209 hectares.

For certification process of the land consolidation site, there is a Decision Letter of the State Minister for Agrarian Affairs/Head of National Land Agency No. 28-VI-1995 dated 27 March 1995, so that the Regional Land Office of North Sulawesi revealed the decision Letter on Land Rights based on a proposal from the Local Land Office.

Nonetheless, such locations with some paddy fields previously provided as well as those under conflict, can not be established such rights, until the problems are solved.

Map of Spatial Design, which is used as the base for implementation of the project in the field and certification process, shows among others:

1. Plan of ring road for 22,900 m in 20 m width and village access road as well as local road of 80,000 m in 3 to 10 m width, so that the total area is 80 hectares.
