“The president takes over this directly and is promised to be resolved as quickly as possible,” said Hasan Nasbi.
Hasan explained that regional sovereignty in the system of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI) was entirely in the hands of the central government.
While the local government only has an administrative authority about the area that is the scope of its duties, including the management of the islands in the region, Hasan added.
“In the concept of our country, the sovereignty of the region is the central government, the unity state of the Republic of Indonesia. The local government has an administrative area,” he said.
The polemic of the administrative border between the provinces of Aceh and North Sumatra, which has been rolling since 1928, was re -created after differences in the management of the management of four islands in the border areas of the two provinces.
Decree of the Minister of the Interior number 300.2.2-2138 years 2025 has stipulated that four islands, namely Lipan Island, Pulau Panjang, Mangkir Ketek Island and Mangkir Gadang Island, the administrative area of North Sumatra Province, directly the Regency Regency.
This policy has caused differences in the ambitions of the two local authorities, each of which believes that they have historical and administrative attachments to these islands.
