Respect for the internal mechanisms for deciding disputes on indigenous issues, which are in harmony with human rights.298 B.2 Appropriateness and effectiveness of the judicial proceedings and petitions filed before State authorities 252. Despite the inexistence of specific judicial proceedings regulated by law, the Kaliña and Lokono peoples have had recourse to courts of the ordinary jurisdiction and to various administrative authorities in order to file formal requests and complaints based on the right of petition recognized in Article 22 of the 1987 Constitution (supra para. 65), in order to claim recognition of the rights to their ancestral territory, their legal personality, and the obligation to consult them. 253. In this regard, the judgment issued on May 21, 1998, by the Cantonal Court of the First Canton of Paramaribo in the case of Tjang A. Sjin v. Zaalman and Others, established that the community of Marijkedorp (Wan Shi Sha) should respect the property rights of Tjang A. Sjin, because he had a valid property title under Surinamese law (supra para. 63). Also, the judgment of July 24, 2003, delivered by the Cantonal Court of the First Canton of Paramaribo in the case of Celientje Martina Joeroeja-Koewie and Others v. Suriname & Suriname Stone & Industries N.V., rejected the request of the residents of Pierrekondre to revoke a sand mining concession granted in their territory, because they lacked legal personality as a collective entity (supra para. 64). 254. In addition, on January 12, 2003, the captains of the Kaliña and Lokono peoples presented a formal petition to the President of Suriname, Ronald Venetiaan, and the respective Ministries and State agencies, requesting the recognition of the right to their ancestral territories, their legal personality, and the obligation to consult them. On January 31 and February 28, 2003, meetings were held in this regard, but no specific agreements were reached (supra paras. 65 and 66). Subsequently, on March 22, 2004, the captains of the Kaliña and Lokono peoples reiterated the contents of the petition of January 12, 2003. However, the State did not answer the petition (supra para. 65). 255. Furthermore, in December 2004, the CLIM sent a communication to the State-owned Lands Office asking it to suspend the issue of land titles in the area known as “Tuinstad Albina.” 294 Cf.
