Palm Oil On Local Government Land Harvested By Residents

The palm oil land had been a long time ago become the regional asset of Siak. The plan was to build a final disposal site (TPA) for rubbish from three sub-districts, which were Lubuk Dalam, Kerinci Kanan and Koto Gasib.

Since the Siak Regency replaced the land loss, the development of TPA has not yet been implemented.

In spite of the local people having dumped their rubbish to part of the area, the still productive palm oil has been always harvested. Information from local people, the oil palm in the land is harvested at least once a week.

Local people have also been normally dumping their rubbish to the area, besides seeing the people harvesting the oil palm once a week. However, the people did not care about the harvest result which was not submitted to the Siak Regency.

"If dumping the rubbish here, people have done it for a long time, Sir. Whose palm oil is that, we don’t know. We only know that the oil palm is harvested once a week if not mistaken," Andi, a resident of Lubuk Dalam in the past, said as written by tribunpekanbaru.com.

In the meantime, the Chief of Pasar Kebersihan dan Pertamanan (DPKP) Office, Siak Wan Ibrahim admitted that the land replacement around 10 Ha in Lubuk Dalam had indeed been done for a very long time. However, the land was still under the authority of the regional asset sector, the Income, Finance and Regional Asset Management Office (DPPKAD) of Siak. Until now, he had not seen the land title, except for knowing that the land was intended to build a TPA.(T2)
