I. Land Administration Organization

Land administration constitutes the fundamental basis for the efficient management of any given
society. Thus, it has the important functions of accommodating to changes involving national reconstruction,
economic development, social security, and assurance of the overall interests and properties of the general

central government. The government bureau handling land administration for each special municipality,
county and city area is the Land Administration Bureau or the Department of Land Administration. The

administrator of this department supervises the local land administrative authorities to ascertain that they
establish land branch offices accordingly and within their jurisdictions to be in charge exclusively of land
registrations, surveys and other activities related to land administration. Figure 5-1 shows the details of the
land administrative organizational system.
