Introduction
• Not a law expert
• Looking at laws for urban Development from planners point of view
• Looking at the challenges for housing provision

Competing ideological perspectives
• M Auslan’s, over 35 years ago, identified three distinct and
competing ideological perspectives in UK planning law:
• a) that the law should be used to protect private property;
• b) that the law should advance the public interest; and
• c) that the law should be used to advance public participation (McAuslan,
1980, p. 2)

Competing ideological perspectives
• Law no 5 of 1960 on Basic Agrarian Principles
• Has those three ideologies at the same time.

• It protects the private property: chapter II article 16 on the right on land

• It advances public interest:

• Article 6: All land rights have a social function.
• Article 7: To prevent the public interest from being harmed, excessive land ownership and possession is
forbidden.
• Arti le 8 : On the asis of the State’s right of ontrol referred to in Article 2, the acquisition of the natural
resources which are contained in the earth, water, and airspace is to be regulated.
• Article 18: In the interests of the public as well as of the nation and of the state and in the collective interests of
the people, land rights can be revoked by providing appropriate compensation and in accordance with the
procedure which is to be stipulated by way of an Act. (Law no 2 of 2012)

• It also advance public participation

• Article 12:
• (1) All joint enterprises in the area of agrarian affairs are to be based on the common interest within the
framework of the national interest and are to be undertaken in the form of cooperatives or other methods
of gotong royong (mutual help).
• (2) The state can, in cooperation with other parties, undertake enterprises in the area of agrarian affairs.

Competing ideological perspectives

• Law no 26 of 2007 on Spatial Management

• It protects the private property: i.e Article 60 regarding the right of every person
• It advances public interest: Basically this law is stressing the use of land for public interest ,more than
protecting private property: i.e environment protection. i.e Article 7: State caries out spatial
management for the greatest benefit of the people
• It also advance public participation: i.e Article 9 (2) c. coordination with stake holders

• Planning regulations with those three
competing ideological perspectives can restricts
the use of land

Planning restricts the use of land for urban
development
• Planning regulations, as widely accepted, will
1. Limits and geographic preferences on the density and intensity of
development.
2. Design and performance standards for lots and buildings.
3. Cost shifting from the locality to the developer.
4. Withdrawal of land from developable supplies.

5. Direct and indirect controls on growth, applied against buildings and
population.

(Deakin. 1989)

Planning restricts the use of land for urban
development
• Planning Regulation for example, RTRW/RDTR, Zoning Regulation,
environmental protection, and process requirements will cause delay
and increasing cost to housing production:
1. Limits the supply of housing units and land usable for housing purposes,
2. cost increases, and
3. Delay due to the permit process.

.

• In Jabodetabek land price keeps increasing

Land for Housing: Jabodetabek Area
• Land for housing is limited due to the planning regulation while the

demand for housing is increases causing the soaring land price
• Land is too expensive for low income housing

Land for housing: Jabodetabek case
• Land price

Source: BI-ITB , 2015

Land for housing: Jabodetabek case
• There is a possibility of oligopolistic market due to the
interconnection among developers in Jabodetabek
• This type of market has made the price of land in the formal housing
development dictated by the developers.
• Land become commodity and source of income: Investment in land is
very profitable
