Footnote 3: According to RÖLL, the percentage was as much as 33 - 50 % (RÖLL, 1976:48).
Footnote 4: RAFFLES set up the McKenzie Commission in 1811. The Commission examined the agrarian problems and was supposed to make recommendations to the Colonial Government about the maximum use of land (MAC ANDREWS, 1986:17).
Footnote 5: "From his Indian experience, Raffles based his system on the need for a detailed land cadastre (or register) and expected to get the necessary land data for this from the village chiefs. In practice, however, the chiefs had no accurate data and met the demand for it by frequently handing in inaccurate or fictitious data." (MAC ANDREWS, 1986:18).

Footnote 17: The BAL exists in a complete English version as an Appendix.
Footnote 18: The enactment of the BAL was preceded by two government statements from President Soekarno. It was on the one hand the well known Political Manifesto (Manipol) address on August 17th, 1959 where Soekarno announced the termination of the proprietary rights to land which had been imported from European law into Indonesian law (UTRECHT, 1969:71), and five months later in his address to the first session of the Supreme Advisory Council (P.D.R.) on January 13th, 1960, President Soekarno substantiated why a land reform was necessary.

Footnote 26: With regard to the distribution of land, farmers who already farmed the land foreseen for distribution de facto, and laborers who worked for the former owner were granted privileges. Veterans and widows of Independence fighters were given particular preference. In 16 years they had to pay the government back the monetary amount which was paid to the former owner as compensation. Land owners who refused to give up their land for redistribution could be dispossessed without compensation, and be imprisoned for three months. See MAC ANDREWS, 1986:24.

Footnote 30: The following remarks refer basically to GAUTAMA, 1972:39 ff.
Footnote 31: GAUTAMA writes about this: " According to adat law, a person has a right to start exploiting land that is part of the so-called territory of the adat Community of which he is a member, as long as it is not under the possession of another party. In the event that the land is further cultivated by him, certain requisites should be fulfilled by him in accordance with the prevailing adat law in his adat community. If these requisites have been completely fulfilled, a certain legal relationship is formed between the person concerned and the land. This relationship can gradually develop into right of ownership with the characteristics described above. Right of ownership which has been created in such a way can also be registered at the Land Registry Office after obtaining approval from the Governor / Provincial Head concerned." (GAUTAMA, 1972:45)
Footnote 32: Alongside the general regulations, there is also a special regulation, i.e. the regulation for granting rights of ownership to transmigrants. The Regulation of the DG of Agrarian Affairs and Transmigration No.3 / 1967 concerns utilization of land in transmigration areas and rights of land for the transmigrants and their families. (GAUTAMA, 1972:43)
Footnote 33: "In theory, the conversion occurred automatically on Sept. 24th, 1960, even though its administration was to be implemented later." (GAUTAMA, 1972:42)
Footnote 34: Government Regulation No. 38 / 1963. See GAUTAMA, 1972:41
Footnote 35: See DE HAAS-ENGEL, 7 / 1993:21
Footnote 36: "In the event that the land requested is part of the land under an Adat community’s right of disposal, it is necessary to give the so-called recognitie to the Adat community concerned, as a symbol of acknowledgment of their right to the land involved. The form and amount of recognitie can be mutually agreed upon with the Adat community concerned." (GAUTAMA, 1972:66)
Footnote 37: See GAUTAMA, 1972:68
Footnote 38: See BARBER / CHURCHILL, 1987:21
Footnote 39: Article 53 of the BAL states: "(1) Rights which are of a temporary nature as meant in Article, 16, Paragraph (1), letter h, i.e. the right of mortgage, the right of sharecropping, the right to temporary occupation (hak menumpang) and the right of lease of agricultural land shall be regulated in order to limit aspects which are in conflict with these laws, and endeavours shall be made to abolish these rights within a short time."

Footnote 75: Industrial timber plantations with fast growing species (incl. eucalyptus deglupta).
Footnote 76: See ISWANTO, 1993:74. "Firstly using ‘the average’ per hectare volume of less than 20 m3 for trees with a diameter of 30 cm and upwards creates an opportunity to fell the forests with a potential volume of above 20 m3, as long as the average volume per hectare of whole areas is less than 20 m3. In the case of ITCI, the average commercial timber volume of the entire areas is 19.59 m3 / ha However, this area covers non-forested land (tidak berhutan) of 34,822 hectares which consists of brush and shrubs, alang-alang grass land, agricultural land, base camp, settlement area and swamp area. On forested land covering an area of 60,101 hectares, with a potential volume of commercial timber per hectare for trees with a diameter exceeding 30 cm, the break-down of the land is as follows:
  • ‘dense forest’(hutan rapat) = 1,513 hectares with a volume per hectare of some 49.15 m3;
  • ‘middle forest’ (hutan sedang) = 20,640 hectares with a volume per hectare of 40.13 m3;
  • ’sparse forest’ (hutan jarang) = 37,940 hectares with a volume per hectare of 37.56 m3.
  • This forested land with an average commercial volume range from 37.56 - 49.15 m3 / ha will also be converted to HTI (ISWANTO, 1994:20 f)

Footnote 89: See DHARMAWAN, 1993:72 f. See also BUNDSCHU, 1994:213 f, where comparable sharing arrangements are reported about from West Sumatra. Share arrangements are also made in West Kalimantan for animal keeping: "For instance, the owner gives one or two piglets to someone, and the latter raises and takes care of them until the animals are big enough to be slaughtered. The animal owner should under such conditions share equally the animals’ offspring with the animals’ keeper as a reward for the latter’s work." See DHARMAWAN, 1993:73. Sharing also exists for rubber tapping and sago palms, coconut trees (for ten harvest days, the owner receives 5 days’ sugar sap and the climber also receives 5 days’ sugar sap (around 25-30 trees climbed per day) (RAJAGUKGUK, 1988)
Footnote 90: See SUHENDAR, 1995:X
Footnote 91: See SUHENDAR, 1995:18
Footnote 92: In the Priangan region, for example, it was recorded for 1905 that 559 households controlled more than 30 bau of land (1 bau = 0.7 ha.).
Footnote 93: These census data should, of course, be interpreted with caution, since the data from 1983, for example, in comparison to the 1973 census "reflects more careful enumeration in 1983, rather than any actual increase in area"(BOOTH, 1988:286). "A further complication is that a considerable amount of former estate land is now cultivated by smallholders who do not possess legal title to it, and which may not be enumerated as smallholder land in Agricultural Censuses" (BOOTH, 1988:269). In addition, there are further problems of definition because "most of the categories into which land is usually divided in Indonesia (Sawah, Pekarangan, Tegalan) are basically Javanese and may not have the same meaning (or indeed much meaning at all) to farmers in Kalimantan or Sulawesi." In summary, BOOTH rights: "For a considerable time to come, it seems likely that land area figures for many regions outside Java will be little more than guesswork." (BOOTH, 1988:271)
Footnote 94: BPS defines the land-holding farm household as follows: the land-holding farm household is a household where at least one member of the household is engaged in cereals, horticulture, estates, livestock, breeding, timber culture, fresh-water pond / paddy-field culture, and brackish water pond culture."

Footnote 116: RAJAGUKGUK, 1988:260. In addition to this, "the percentage of ‘unidentified’ landowners from the view point of tenant’s in Indramayu and Cianjur (West Java) accounted to 17.9 % and 11.7 % respectively. The existence of unidentified owners indicate the impersonal relationship between the tenants and their expected landowners. This condition gives an opportunity to the emergence of "new capitalist" farmers in the village, as intermediary who act on behalf of the "true land owners" (HAERUMAN KARMANA, 1993:94)
Footnote 117: See UTAMA, 1995. It is possible to acquire several citizens’ cards which means of course that in various towns, land can be acquired quite "legally" in various regions.

Footnote 123: VON VOLLENHOVEN spoke in 1909 of "beschikkingsrecht" (TER HAAR, 1948:81) and identified 6 characterisitics of hak ulayat:

1. The community and its members are free to use uncultivated land within the hak ulayat area (to clear land, establish hamlets, gather, hunt, etc.);

2. Outsider may do the same only with permission of the community and they commit a felony if they do otherwise;

3. Sometimes the community members must pay a tithe or fee (outsiders are always required to do this);

4. The community is liable for crimes committed in the hak ulayat area if no perpetrator can be found;

5. The hak ulayat can never be transferred permanently;

6. The hak ulayat, to varying degrees, always retains its influence over land cleared by individuals within the hak ulayat area. (VAN VOLLENHOVEN, quoted in EVERS, 1995:3)

Footnote 127: EVERS writes that "it is argued (amongst others by the National Land Agency / BPN) that the State Control authorized by the BAL has taken over the land ‘management’ task of the various traditional communities and that the various ‘hak ulayat’ whereby the role of the community leaders has been taken over by the State. Following this train of thought, individuals (i.e. Indonseian citizens) obtain ‘user’ rights to land, but the ‘community’ (i.e. the State) retains the power to revoke or annul these rights if this is desirable in the interest of the ‘community’. The traditional ‘hak ulayat’ of the communities has been absorbed by the ‘hak ulayat’ of the Indonesian nation, hence there is no longer a basis for maintaining traditional communal lands and therefore all lands can now be individualized."(EVERS, 1995:9)

Footnote 211: HARDJONO draws attention to another aspect: "With construction now an important sector in the economy, there has been rapid growth in subsidiary activities to meet the demand for building materials, which include land-fill, lime, bricks, tiles and cement. The digging of open quarries close to urban areas to obtain land fill material has created huge holes and rendered the land virtually useless for any other purpose (HARDJONO, 1994:197).
