JAKARTA - President Director of PT Freeport Indonesia, Tony Wenas, denied that the company he led would conduct an Initial Public Offering (IPO) on the Indonesia Stock Exchange.
"There is no (IPO plan)," Tony told the media quoted on Saturday, July 22.
Tony's brief response broke the statement by the Director of the Assessment of the Indonesia Stock Exchange Company (IDX), I Gede Nyoman Yetna, who revealed that his party invited a company discussion that was deemed appropriate for the IPO. One of them is PT Freeport Indonesia.
"For example, we and Mandiri securities will explore the potential of decent IPO companies throughout Indonesia. Including Freeport," he told reporters, Friday, July 7.
In this celebration, Nyoman also appreciated the government's success in winning Freeport shares. As is known, Freeport has previously controlled the Grasberg mine in Papua since 1991.
He also hopes that after being controlled by the government, Freeport can be listed on the IDX. This is so that the public can also monitor this mining company.
