11 Land conflicts and licensing issues at PT KAP: Within two weeks of the acquisition of PT KAP by Anglo Eastern Plantations in 2010, the Regent of Gunung Mas issued a Plantation Business Permit (IUP) for the entire area, despite no Environmental Impact Analysis (AMDAL) having been carried out. During the subsequent AMDAL process, local Dayak communities stressed that they did not want the company on their lands. The concerns of local people resulted in the Regent issuing a decree to PT KAP to excise local land from their concession, and banned them from negotiating land sales with local people without the regency government s permission. In January 2013, the Governor of Central Kalimantan issued a directive that PT KAP must comply with the Regent s instruction, and conduct an inventory of all land claims within the concession. Despite this, PT KAP continued its own process of acquiring land, and the directives from both the Regent and Governor appeared to have been ignored. Customary lands were not excised from the IUP area. In 2012, a Permit for wood utilization (IPK) was issued to a third-party, PT Kahayan Hutan Lestari (KHL). Clearing and planting began on the plantation [bit.ly/2glvohq]. In 2014, NGO reports accused PT KHL of clearing more timber on the concession than was stipulated in its license, and PT KAP of operating without a HGU license [bit.ly/2ussq17].
