Dream - Jokowi allows the public to pawn land certificates. However, the president, whose full name is Joko Widodo, advised that pawning certificates should be done for productive activities. Not only that, the former Governor of Jakarta also warned that the public who pawns certificates must be able to pay installments. Jokowi conveyed this message at the Land Certificate Handover Event for the People of East Java Province in GOR Delta, Sidoarjo Regency, East Java.
