PROBLEMATIK DESENTRALISASI PENGELOLAAN SUMBERDAYA HUTAN DI PAPUA
ABSTRACT: The decentralization
of forestry sector in Papua Province has been executed by the Community
Forestry Programme. To support this programme, the Indonesian government issued
a series of regulations; Government Regulation (PP No: 6/1999) on the Small
Scale Logging Consession Permit, the Ministry of Forestry Decision Letter No:
677/Kpts – II/1998 on Community Forestry Programme, and Forest Reform Act No:
41/1999. However, the implementation of these policies had caused many
problems, among athers: (1) inconsistency of government policies, which had
caused authority conflict between local governments and central government in
managing the forest resource; (2) policies that caused illegal logging
activities; (3) an increase of policy manipulation practice. In the end, this
policy have failed to create both quality improvement of the local people
social economic life as well as a sustainable forest development.
This article is focused to discuss questions on how the local government
implement these policies, and what are the problems faced by the settlers in
and around of the forest.
