The certificate handover took place at the Jambi Governor's Office on Tuesday (25/06/2024).

"This is a priority because these indigenous peoples have not only lived for decades, but also hundreds of years, in our country, in locations that are glorified (by indigenous peoples, ed.).
"Therefore, we must also simplify and speed up the management of customary land," explained Minister AHY.
According to Minister AHY, this must also be accompanied by a correct and free mechanism.
"So that communal communities, indigenous communities wherever they are, can get their rights," he explained.
The Tanah Berserau Tanah Baimbeo Customary Law Community itself is a customary law community unit which includes Sungai Liuk Village, Seberang Village, Koto Dua Village, and Sumur Gedang Village with a total area of approximately 18,680 m².
The process of certifying the customary land of customary law communities has gone through various stages. Then finally on June 24 2024.

Chairman of the Tanah Berserau Tanah Baimbeo Traditional Law Community, Sungai Banyak City, Armaizal, revealed that the land has been inhabited by indigenous people for generations since the 1800s.
"So the land has been around since our ancestors, not now. It has been occupied since 1800," he explained.
By handing over the customary land certificate, Armaizal felt the government's assistance because approximately 600 heads of families (KK) live on the customary land and earn their living on that land.
