Abstract
This article aims to examine the existence of indigenous peoples after independence to date in the Law regarding the Environment. It was found that in the pre-reform era, especially at the beginning of the Order of the Law on the Environment, regulations regarding indigenous peoples did not exist. After the amendment was replaced by a new law, the existence of indigenous peoples began to be discussed and the government law required the government to pay attention to existing customs. Post-reform, the existence of indigenous peoples has received more treatment than the two previous laws. It even provides attribution to the central government and local governments to carry out recognition of indigenous peoples
Keywords: The existence of Indigenous Peoples, the Law and the Environment
