Abstract
This analysis examines the use of land reclamation in the national landscape by Asian countries as a means of land management. She examines the relationship between the stages of a contract and the actual value, which results in issues such as land value, unsustainable land use, and treason. This question pertains to the manner in which the emergence of new technologies, such as GIS and block chaining, has facilitated the formalisation of human land rights. The data from Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines indicates that land degradation and land loss have increased the value of land by approximately 25–30% and have increased the risk of extinction for millions of indigenous people. This implies that the idea of initiating technological and environmental challenges is naive. The projects in question are designed to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of land use for all stakeholders. The conclusion is that the hybrid strategy tadbir urus can facilitate the process of growth. The development of the future generation must ensure the functionality of the hybrid model, its dynamic nature, and the scalability of the development process. It is possible that this will affect the strategic direction and work scope of organisations such as the FAO Secretariat for Communication and Information.
