Judge Nixes Reclamation License

LAST Tuesday, a state administrative court judge ruled the license held by Muara Wisesa for the reclamation of Samudra G Island to be null and void. The judge ordered a halt to all reclamation activities until a ruling is delivered by the Supreme Court.

Fishermen welcomed the news with joy. Together with a legal aid institution, they proceeded to forward a lawsuit against the licenses covering other islands. In total, there are 17 islands set for reclamation in the Jakarta Bay.
