REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, BANDUNG -- Agrarian and Spatial Planning Minister Ferry Musyidan Baldan said he would carry out examinations and collect data on spaces of land owned by foreigners in Indonesia.

"Foreigners may not own any single space of land in Indonesia based on the Constitution," Ferry Mursyidan Baldan said after attending the relaunch of a magazine on the spatial planning in Indonesia here on Sunday (8/3).

He said the examinations would be conducted to assure that there would be no pieces of land under the control of foreigners in the country.

"Based on the international law, only land for residences and offices of foreign ambassadors could be controlled by foreigners," he remarked.
