The Wali Nanggroe emphasized the need for transparency and accountability in natural resource management, including providing public access to information on exploration results. He also encouraged a comprehensive evaluation of permits deemed unproductive and the eradication of illegal activities.

"Natural resource management must provide tangible benefits to the community, with the principles of openness and firm law enforcement," he said.

Regarding rehabilitation and reconstruction, it was agreed that the relocation of disaster-affected communities would be carried out in a planned manner to safe areas, accompanied by the provision of adequate basic infrastructure and communal facilities. The government will also establish no-development zones in disaster-prone areas as part of a long-term mitigation strategy.

"Furthermore, the role of traditional institutions was emphasized as a crucial element in supporting the success of the policy, particularly in maintaining social cohesion and ensuring a local wisdom-based approach," emphasized the Wali Nanggroe.

In the infrastructure sector, the meeting highlighted the urgency of accelerating national strategic projects, particularly the construction of toll roads and ports, to boost regional economic growth. This effort will be strengthened through the development of a post-disaster Aceh development master plan integrated with the revised Regional Spatial Plan (RTRW) through synergy between the central and regional governments.

"From an economic perspective, investment into Aceh must be oriented towards added value, including empowering the local economy, technology transfer, and strengthening the regional financial system," stated Wali Nanggroe.

Wali Nanggroe also highlighted the importance of improving bureaucratic integrity and effectiveness, as well as transparency in budget management and public services, as prerequisites for accelerated development.{}
