Forest Encroachment: Alternative Regulation

Abstract

Since the eruption of Mount Sinabung, the government has sought to relocate victims. Encroachment of great forest park (Tahura) occurred because of the lack of relocation area. This evaluative paper is intended to select, determine, and what legal remedies are effective based on normative-empirical legal research. This, a better regulation can be found based on data obtained from an analysis of government efforts to tackle. Thus, a better regulation can be found based on data collected from an analysis of government efforts to tackle illegal logging in the Tahura. The North Sumatra Provincial Regulation is expected to focus on the role of the UPT and its apparatuses in protecting and managing the Tahura to maintain its function as a protected forest.
