The mining RI Condition

The ratification of the Minerba BILL that was done through the People's Representative Council Plenary Session last Tuesday (16/12) indeed was coloured by the action outside the room (walkout) three factions. That is, the National Mandate Party Faction (the PAN), the Kebangkitan Faction of the Nation (FKB), and the Prosperous Justice Party Faction (PKS).

The ratification of Pertambangan UU of the Mineral and Coal (Minerba) continued to provoke pros and cons. This was especially related the provisions that the available contract continued to be continued until his period ended. Responded to that, Minister ESDM Purnomo Yusgiantoro said, from jawapos.com the principle that was followed in Minerba UU was respect for the contract or sanctity of contract. We could not interrupt the unilateral contract. That like Chavez (Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, Red). Could not like that, he said in the ESDM Department yesterday (17/12).

The spokesperson the PAN Zulkifli Halim Faction said, the exploitation of the mining that used heads of households's system and PKP2B did not give the benefit for the country. Therefore, if this mechanism continued to be undertaken through to the period of the contract ending, the country increasingly was damaged.

He mentioned, PT Freeport Indonesia that used heads of households's system was still operating up until 2041 and the contract majority PKP2B completely fastest in 2027. Purnomo denied Minerba UU that just was more siding to the mine businessman. According to him, the change in the contract regime or the agreement became the beneficial precisely permission regime the country and in fact not more beneficial for the businessman.

Indeed several disappointed contractors (with the permission system). They were happier deal to the government. Now the government did not become player. So, government Is government, might not mix the contract and the business, he said
