Hello steemians,
In 1995, PT Kallista Alam was one of the companies operating in the Tripa Peat Swamp Forest.
Over the years, the company has accumulated oil palm plantation concessions (HGU - Hak Guna Usaha) held in Tripa for 7,000 hectares.
In 1996, the company wanted to expand its concession ownership with an additional concession area of 1,986 hectares adjacent to the existing concession area.
However, from 1999 to 2005, there was a conflict between the Free Aceh Movement and the Government of the Republic of Indonesia and the Aceh Tsunami disaster in 2004, forcing PT Kallista Alam to stop all its activities in Tripa Peat Swamp Forest.
Only after the signing of the peace agreement in 2005, palm oil companies operating in Tripa, including PT Kallista Alam, gradually began to resume operations and continue their activities in the area (Cotula et al. 2015). At that time, precisely in 2007, PT Kallista Alam continued its efforts to obtain new Business Use Rights (HGU) for land adjacent to existing concessions.
The application for the permit submitted was an oil palm plantation permit (IUP-B) from the Governor of Aceh using a location permit granted by the BPN in 1996.
However this application was rejected on the basis of the administration of incomplete documentation and the fact that the location permit in 1996 had expired.
PT Kallista Alam's efforts to obtain permits did not stop there.
In 2008, illegally, PT Kallista Alam submitted a location permit.
The proposed new location permit is in the Nagan Raya District Region.
And, the Nagan Raya Regent at that time gave permission to PT Kallista Alam.
With the new location permit from the Nagan Raya Regent, PT Kallista Alam tried to re-implement the Aceh Governor's IUP-B.
However, the application for IUP-B was rejected again.
This time the reason is that in 2008 the Leuser Ecosystem, where the Tripa swamp is in it, has been officially designated as a National Strategic Area for Environmental Protection Functions.
