Kesimpulan Perkara Nomor 112/PUU-XXIII/2025
Summary
The petitioners argue that the 'ease and acceleration' of National Strategic Projects (PSN) under the Job Creation Law creates vague norms that allow for arbitrary government power, the marginalization of public participation, and the violation of constitutional rights. They claim these provisions facilitate land grabbing, the conversion of sustainable agricultural land, and the removal of legislative oversight over forest area changes, primarily benefiting private capital over public welfare. The document details specific impacts in regions such as Rempang, Merauke, and North Kalimantan, citing losses of indigenous lands, food insecurity, and environmental degradation.
Key insights
- The phrase 'ease and acceleration of national strategic projects' in Article 3 letter d of Law No. 6 of 2023 is considered a vague norm that lacks concrete conceptual or operational boundaries, potentially leading to arbitrary power and a lack of legal certainty.
- The expansion of the 'public interest' category to include industrial areas initiated or controlled by the government or state/regional enterprises allows private entities to seek profit while utilizing state facilities for land acquisition.
- Allowing private business entities to conduct land acquisition for PSNs under the guise of public interest is argued to erode the State's Right of Control (HMN) and prioritize private capital accumulation over public service.
- Provisions allowing the conversion of sustainable agricultural and food land for PSNs are claimed to violate the constitutional right to food and nutrition by cutting off access to productive land for small-scale producers and indigenous peoples.
- The removal of the requirement for House of Representatives (DPR) approval for changes in forest area designation (DPCLS) eliminates the system of checks and balances, increasing the risk of unchecked deforestation and environmental damage.
- The ability to bypass Spatial Plans (RTR) and Zoning Plans (RZ) for PSNs is described as an 'executive-centric' approach that ignores environmental carrying capacity and facilitates the rapid seizure of living spaces for investors.
- Specific PSN implementations have resulted in documented human rights violations, including forced evictions in Rempang, loss of indigenous forests in Merauke, and the destruction of coastal ecosystems in North Kalimantan and South Sulawesi.
