The Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) faction in the Indonesian House of Representatives received an audience from the Pangkalan Jati Plot Residents Association (PWKPJ) in the PKS faction meeting room, Nusantara I Building, Parliamentary Complex, Senayan, Central Jakarta, Tuesday (14/4/2026).

The PWKPJ delegation was received by the Secretary General of PKS and member of Commission XI of the House of Representatives, Muhammad Kholid, and member of Commission I of the House of Representatives from the PKS faction, Mahfudz Abdurrahman. The PWKPJ group was accompanied by a member of the Depok City Regional House of Representatives from the Beji, Cinere, and Limo electoral district from the PKS faction, Ubaidillah.

Previously, the PWKPJ administrators had reported their issues to Ubaidillah, who, as a Depok Regional House of Representatives member, directly communicated with members of the House of Representatives from the Depok-Bekasi electoral district to bring attention to the matter.

“We hope that the veterans who once fought deserve to receive their rights fairly,” said Ubaidillah when opening the audience.

The meeting began with a presentation of the issues faced by the PWKPJ, delivered by its chairman, Rahimullah.

Rahimullah stated that they have inhabited the Pangkalan Jati plots for approximately 50 years. Although the land was granted by the state, the homes were built at their own expense.

“We have Building Use Permits from the Indonesian Navy, but these were later regularized by the Depok City Government, and we faithfully pay land and building taxes,” Rahimullah emphasized.

Rahimullah said that the total land area in the Pangkalan Jati region is 408 hectares, with 296 hectares having been released, which now houses the Puri Cinere complex, Cinere Hospital, Siloam Diagram Hospital, Bellevue Apartments, and shop houses.

“33 hectares inhabited by residents have yet to obtain legal certainty,” he stressed.

According to Rahimullah, the current obstacle faced by the PWKPJ is a letter from the Ministry of Finance, Number S-74/KN.4/2022 dated May 24, 2022, stating that the land cannot be transferred because it is still used for the main duties and functions of the Indonesian Navy.

However, Rahimullah said the legal basis strengthening the PWKPJ’s struggle is Minister of Finance Regulation Number 138 and 06 of 2010 concerning the removal of State Property that is no longer used for the state’s main duties.

Furthermore, Rahimullah said, the Constitutional Court decision Number 111/PUU-XIII/2015 concerning land ownership for more than 20 years in good faith serves as a basis for property rights.

“Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation simplifies licensing and provides legal certainty for factual occupants. As well as Article 28H of the 1945 Constitution,” he explained.

Therefore, Rahimullah requested the House of Representatives to hold a hearing to directly listen to the aspirations and conditions of the residents of the Indonesian Navy plots in Pangkalan Jati.

Rahimullah also urged the formation of a Working Committee and a Special Committee to review inconsistencies and correct policies between agencies.

“We propose to the Ministry of Defense, as the user of State Property, to release the 33 hectares of State Property so that the Ministry of Finance can remove the 33 hectares from the list of operational assets of the Indonesian Navy, in accordance with Government Regulation Number 28 of 2020,” he emphasized.

Meanwhile, member of Commission I of the House of Representatives from the PKS faction, Mahfudz Abdurrahman, promised to voice the PWKPJ’s complaints. Mahfudz said all the data submitted by the PWKPJ was very complete and strong.

“We will voice this and we will conduct lobbying. According to the chronology, this data is very strong. Hopefully, there will be a middle ground. Moreover, they are not asking for it for free,” Mahfudz emphasized.

Meanwhile, the Secretary General of PKS, Muhammad Kholid, explained that the PWKPJ case falls under the domain of the Ministry of Defense. Therefore, his party will coordinate with Commission I, the Ministry of Defense, and the Indonesian Navy.

Kholid, who currently sits on Commission XI of the House of Representatives, said that his party will also conduct intensive communication with the Ministry of Finance. This is because the plot land is classified as State Property
