Abandoned high-rise buildings are involved in the polemic of land ownership and business use certification cases after the policy of the grand sultan in Medan, North Sumatra, Indonesia, on May 13, 2025. The number of major sultanates in North Sumatra that have heirs and carry out traditions probably does not change much in the last 10 years. Their focus is more on cultural and historical aspects of existence.
