Jakarta (Antara) – Minister of Law Supratman Andi Agtas emphasized that the regulation of the four islands of disputes between the provincial government of Aceh and Noord -Sumatra became the task, principal and function of the Ministry of the Interior.
“Yes, the problem is the tasks and functions, the Ministry of the Interior ‘Tusi,” Supratman said, after attending the opening ceremony of Paralegal Training for Community Organizations Groups at the Ministry of Law, Jakarta, Saturday.
He said that the settlement of the polemic of Pulau Panjang, Lipan Island, Mangkir Gadang Island and Mangkir Pulau Ketek was not a domain and authority of the Ministry of Law.
This was transferred by the Minister of Lawyers when he was asked about the declaration of the 10th and 12th Vice President of the Republic of Indonesia Jusuf Kalla, who declared the decree of the Minister of the Interior with regard to the status of the four islands was formally inadequate.
“If that will be completed later by the Minister of the Interior, not the domain of the Ministry of Law,” said Supratman.
