Generations can take advantage of the natural resources that exist in customary forests such as plants and animals in customary forests for their survival and daily life. The rights of the customary law community, in this case the land including their customary forest, have not received legal protection as it should be in accordance with the mandate of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia Article 18B paragraph (2) and other laws and regulations
