Abstract This research is motivated by the fact that the existence of land is essential for human life. the land is not only understood as an economic resource, a place to live, and a place for the grave, but it is also something sacred, especially for the Minangkabau people, especially communal land which is considered to have magical religious value. The existence of communal land as communal property, especially in Fifty Regency Cities, is decreasing daily. Both in terms of quality and quantity, in terms of quality, with the certification of these people's customary rights, in the perspective of Minangkabau customary law, the quality will decrease because it will be easily transferred or switched to other parties, either by purchasing and selling or used as collateral at the Regarding quantity, the certification of customary rights will make the land of high value and easy to buy and sell or transfer to other parties. Besides. Minangkabau customary law prohibits buying and selling of customary land. this is stated in the old custom saying or kato adat, "Jua indak makan bali, gadai indak dimakan sando," which means that customary land cannot be bought and sold.

This article is an official recognition given by the State in the constitution both to the existence of its customary law community and to the traditional rights inherent in that legal community. One of the rights inherent in that legal community is customary rights. However, this recognition is accompanied by the condition that the customary rights are as long as they are alive.

Its ownership is transferred to parties outside the community public law. The decrease in customary land is due to its certification. Accreditation makes it easier to buy and sell customary If the land is certified or registered, its legal certainty is guaranteed, so buyers do not hesitate to buy it. According to Article 19 Paragraph . of the UUPA, to guarantee legal certainty, the government will conduct land registration throughout the territory of the Republic of Indonesia according to the provisions regulated by Government Regulation.

Najmi: The Existence Of Customary. Based on the table above, the number of certified lands with the PTSL program, although not by the existing target, the number of registered lands is still Likewise. Table 1 shows an increase in the certification of customary land from year to year. After researching Rahmawati Boty Notary /PPAT in Lima Puluh Kota Regency, the process of land transfer, there are also many newly certified lands, which, if observed, come from the customary land of the So, community's customary land makes it easier for the holder of the rights in the certificate's name to transfer because many of them certify the customary land of their community, which has become their designation to be registered in the name of an individual, so that it becomes the personal property of the person stated on the land certificate. Furthermore, according to Ridho. Staff of the National Land Agency Office. Lima Puluh Kota Regency, to register land at the land office, in this case, the registration of customary land, several requirements must be met, namely: Application letter. Ranji people. Statement of physical control. Membership agreement letter. Certificate from the village head. Letter of accountability. UN. Taxpayer Identification Number. KTP and KK. ID cards of 2 witnesses. Letter of the statement of installation of field boundary signs land.

If the requirements are incomplete, they will be requested to be completed first, and customary land can be taken over or revoked by the Government if the land is indeed used for the public interest. Then, if land has been registered with the land agency and a certificate has been issued when transferring land rights, namely by buying and selling, the certificate will be transferred to the buyer. Transferring a Certificate Name is the process of transferring or changing the name of the rights holder listed on the Certificate. Looking at the number of changes in the name of customary land in Lima Puluh Kota Regency, the following data was obtained: LPPM STIH Putri Maharaja Payakumbuh - 202 JCH (Jurnal Cendekia Huku. : Vol. No 2. Year 2024 Table 3 Number of Changes of Name of Customary Land of the Community Change of Land Name (Last Three Year. Year 2021 Year 2022 Year 2023 Source: ATR/BPN Lima Puluh Kota Based on the data on name changes that occur each year, 493 plots of land were changed in 2021. Meanwhile, the Lima Puluh Kota Regency consists of 79 Nagari. If divided and taken as an average, the number of plots of land the average per Nagari is six plots per year. This will, of course, result in the community's customary land decreasing in number. Transactions for buying and selling customary land occur, as is the case in Nagari Solok Bio-Bio and Nagari Situjuah Batua, both of which are in two different sub-districts in Lima Puluh Kota Regency. The land located in Harau District is located in Nagari Solok Bio-Bio. The land has a certificate of Freehold Rights with Number 297, issued on March 11, 2013, by the Lima Puluh Kota Regency Land Office, with a Measurement Letter dated February 27, 2013, and an area of 181 m2. stated on the certificate, this land was obtained from a Sale and Purchase process carried out at a Notary/PPAT in Lima Puluh Kota Regency. It can be seen that this land comes from customary land, namely from the customary land of the Pauh people in the name of Mrs. Mahdalinar. Then, after having a certificate, the land was sold to Dona with a Sale and Purchase Deed dated 03-11-2023. Number 45/2023. So, there was a 203 - P-ISSN: 2355-4657.

It is issued with a Certificate of Ownership with Number 1200, issued on December 10, 2020, by the Lima Puluh Kota Regency Land Office. A measurement letter dated December 8, 2020, with an area of 2,830 m2. As stated on the certificate, this land was obtained from the Sale and Purchase process carried out at a Notary/PPAT in Lima Puluh Kota Regency. It can be seen that this land comes from customary land, namely from the customary land of the Piliang people in the name of Mr Nilwan. Then, after having a certificate, the land was sold to Tomi with a Deed of Sale and Purchase Dated 21-06-2023 Number 24/2023. So, there has been a transfer of land Certification as a mandate of Law Number 5 of 1960 concerning the Basic Agrarian Law, where its implementation is further regulated in Government Regulation Number 10 of 1961, which was later replaced by Government Regulation Number 24 of 1997 concerning Land Registration, as this can be reviewed from the Theory of Legal Certainty, which according to CST Kansil, certainty is a matter . that is certain, the law must essentially be specific and fair. Then, the legal certainty Vikkania Rahmi Andika Putri. Zefrizal Nurdin. Najmi: The Existence Of Customary. in the Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia also states in Article 28D Paragraph . , "Everyone has the right to recognition, guarantees, and legal certainty, which is fair and equal treatment before the law. " Then also, regarding this land registration, one of its objectives is to provide legal certainty and protection to the holder of rights to a plot of land, apartment units, and other registered rights so that they can easily prove themselves as the holder of the rights concerned. Registering the land will provide legal certainty regarding land rights along with their contents and obligations, and it will also make the administration in the land sector orderly. Having the land certified will give the land a high economic value. The increasing need for land, both for housing, business, tourism and recreation, and even burial places, while in terms of quantity, the land will never increase, while the economic value of the land is increasing day by day, especially if the land is certified then its monetary value will increase. The increasing need for land results in high demand for land even though, on the other hand, the price of land is increasing day by day. This also happens in Lima Puluh Kota Regency, where the demand for land is increasing daily. Even though land prices are rising, this does not affect interest in purchasing land, especially certified land, for residential or business The land in Lima Puluh Kota Regency is generally controlled by proper customary law, especially customary law people, with thus almost all land for sale. That is land customary law in matter. This land customary law people, when the land customary law race This Already certified will more tall interest buyer to land said. Why? Buyers are more interested in buying land customary law of the people who are accredited Because, according to a buyer like one of the buyers. Mrs Neti Herawati, she says that if purchased, land Already certified will be conveniently obtained in the process of selling or buying, among others: Sales process buy it No convoluted, enough existing name certified go to PPAT can do selling and buying. Return process his name. It should not be too long compared to when purchasing land . It is not yet certified so that it will be approved. Formerly new, it Can come back to Name. Land purchased Can be directly Absence of hesitation to land. The increase in the transfer or sale of certified customary land was also confirmed by one of the community leaders, a clan leader in Harau Village, namely Mr Firdaus. Based on the author's interview with the datuak, he said that it was confirmed that after the certification of customary land, there were more and more transfers of rights to customary land in the village. harau, pointing to several places, said that the land where several homestays were built used to be the customary land of the community, now the ownership has changed and has become a homestay. while pointing to several plots of land, he said that it used to be the customary land of the community, now it has become private land because it has been sold by the community that owns it to the buyer. the community's customary land is sold, its status will change from customary land LPPM STIH Putri Maharaja Payakumbuh - 204 JCH (Jurnal Cendekia Huku. : Vol. No 2. Year 2024 to private land. This is also in line with provided by her, that every year there is the results of the author's research on a an increase in the sale and purchase or Notary/PPAT in Lima Puluh Kota transfer of rights to this customary land of Regency, namely Mrs. Hj Rahmawati the community as in the table below: Boty.

The reason why custom prohibits multiplied by 23 PPATs, then there will the sale of this community's customary be a Transfer of Rights to customary land land is because: or sale and purchase of customary land of Customary land is obtained from 230 plots of customary land, which means inheritance where the inheritor does that there is a change in status from not know its origin . he property is customary land to private land. We only inherit it This shows that, indeed, after the without knowing how to get it. certification of customary land, the Customary provisions only allow us transfer of customary land from sellers to to take advantage of customary land, buyers has increased, which will result in and we must preserve and pass it on. a daily decrease or reduction in the Customary land, including the existence of customary land. customary land of a tribe, is a symbol of unity. customary lines say "the The Occurrence of Transfer of existence of pusako / customary land.

Najmi: The Existence Of Customary. to prevent the disappearance of the people or tribe. Based on the research's location, the transaction of buying and selling customary land of the community took place, as was found in Nagari Solok BioBio and Nagari Situjuah. The stone which was stated it was proven that the customary land of the people was sold On the land located in Nagari Solok Bio-Bio. Harau District. Mrs. Mahdalinar was the person who sold her land. after the author asked why the land was sold. Mrs. Mahdalinar answered that because of economic difficulties, she did not have the capital to open a food stall, so some of the money from selling the land was used for capital to open a food stall and her child also needed money for college, so some of it was used for her child's college fees. After the author asked why she certified her Mrs. Mahdainar answered that there was no intention to certify this community's land. Still, because this land would be sold, the person buying it asked for the certificate even though her land was not yet The prospective buyer offered to certify the land and was willing to cover the costs needed to certify the land with the agreement that the expenses he incurred would be deducted later from the price of the land he bought. Mother required money from the sale of the land and was also helped to certify the land. From the research results above, it can be seen that: The sale of customary land occurs due to economic pressures or economic factors. Buyers are more interested in buying land if the land has a Furthermore, in Nagari Situjuah Batua. Situjuah Limo Nagari District. Mr Nilwan sold his customary land because of economic pressure before this land was sold to Mr Tomi. This land had been mortgaged to Mr Tomi for 5 years. because Mr Nilwan needed money to trade, he offered Mr Tomi to buy his land. Mr Tomi was willing to buy on the condition that the land had a certificate. Because Mr. Nilwan did not have the money to certify the land. Mr. Nilwan increased the amount of his mortgage to Mr. Tomi. After the certification was completed and the certificate was issued by the National Land Agency, the sale and purchase process was carried out at the local Notary's office, and the name was changed to the Lima Puluh Kota Regency Land Agency Office. From the two research results above, it can be seen that the transfer of rights to customary land, especially customary land of the Near Clan, is caused by: Due to economic pressure factors. The customary land of the community has been certified. This will undoubtedly result in the people's customary land becoming less and less in existence or existence daily. This is supported by the results of interviews with the Head of Harau Village. it was stated that in its development, the existence of a land LPPM STIH Putri Maharaja Payakumbuh - 206 JCH (Jurnal Cendekia Huku. : Vol. No 2. Year 2024 customary land, has had an impact that with the certification, there is an increase in benefits to the value of the land. As in Theory Utilization, utilitarianism school of thought believes that the purpose of the law is to provide benefits to as many people as possible, which can also be interpreted as Based on the results of the interview with Yudi. Secretary of the Harau Village Head, the land has been certified. It is in his name, so he is free to do anything with the land with a certificate of ownership. There are several reasons why this customary land is being bought and sold: Economic demands. Used to. Extinct. Land buying and selling can happen depending on the clan. Buying and selling can occur if the niniak mamak and the clan members agree to sell the land. This matter describes that, in reality, there are also people who buy and sell customary land of this community even though customs have prohibited it. seen with the Living Law theory, according to Eugen Ehrlich, the development of law is centred on the community itself, not on the formation of law by the state, judges' decisions, or the development of legal science. ( Eugen Ehrlich, 1936 ) Society is the primary source of law. this is what Eugen Ehrlich Living law dominates life itself, even though it has not been included in the proportion of law. This can be seen in the development of new laws in the field of customary law amid society, where customary land that previously could not be bought and sold can now be bought and sold as long as there is an agreement 207 - P-ISSN: 2355-4657. E-ISSN: 2580-1678 from the community members. This can be seen as a living law today in society. Also, according to the adage of customary law," custom is used new, cloth is worn out, " customary law develops in line with the legal needs of society, so what is customary today is what is patterned by society in the current community Based on the results of the interview with Mr Firdaus. Chairman of KAN Harau, the transfer of customary land can only occur because of the four things mentioned above. However, now, because of the development of the times, it has also begun to shift. Because of life's difficulties, some people have changed hands through grants or sales. This cannot be denied. this happens with the development of the times. This is also because the land has a certificate of ownership so that sales can be carried out. Next, look at the authority of KAN, namely, related to the letters or documents needed to register the land for the first time. Namely the Certificate of the Village Head. This letter is issued by the Village Head, with a procedure where it must be signed first by the Mamak Kepala Waris. Mamak Kepala Kaum. Head of KAN, and then the Village Head. In its implementation. KAN does not directly sign this letter but also first ensures whether this letter has been approved and signed correctly. So the clan, in the name of one of the clan members, becomes the property, usually represented by the Mamak Kepala Waris, known as the clan's leader, and then sells Based on the results of the interview with Mr. Lakon Siska, the Head of Situjuan Banda Dalam Village, who was Vikkania Rahmi Andika Putri. Zefrizal Nurdin. Najmi: The Existence Of Customary. also researched, in the 2021 PTSL program, many land registrations were received, around 400 plots, but until now, some have not been completed, and around 90 files whose information is Information from the BPN asked for proof of submission to be brought, but the community concerned could not show evidence of submission. Because there is no proof of submission, this is an The Village Head believes that what weakens the certificate is the handover from the Niniak Mamak to the Induak, which is based only on control. Whoever controls the land or house is made with the signature of the niniak mamak. So, some have migrated, and of course, they do not have homes in the villages. Now, those who are able or well-off are given certificates, and those who are less able do not have certificates. So, the weakness of this certificate is that the village government cannot control it, and likewise, the mamak cannot control it. Because people already have certificates, so if they want to buy and sell land, they can immediately take care of it at the Notary/PPAT office.
