Hary Tanoe Company Explains Sitting On Case Related To Being Sued For Bankruptcy By KT Corporation

JAKARTA - A South Korean (South Korean) telecommunications company, KT Corporation, filed a bankruptcy application against PT Global Mediacom Tbk at the Central Jakarta Commercial Court. Global Mediacom is part of the MNC Group which is owned by a national entrepreneur and Perindo politician, Hary Tanoe.

This bankruptcy suit is registered under number 33 / Pdt.Sus-Pailit / 2020 / PN Niaga Jkt.Pst dated July 28. In the court petitum, there were several things that were asked by KT Corporation to the panel of judges. One of them, the petitioner asked the panel of judges to accept and grant the bankruptcy petition entirely with all the legal consequences.

The company coded BMTR issuer spoke about the issue of the bankruptcy lawsuit by the South Korean company KT Corporation. BMTR said the request from the KT was baseless or invalid.

Director, Chief Legal Counsel of PT Global Mediacom Tbk Christophorus Taufik said that this case is an old case and has been going on for more than 10 years. Taufik said that the agreement on which the petition was based had been canceled based on the decision of the South Jakarta District Court No. 97 / Pdt.G / 2017 / PN.Jak.Sel dated May 4, 2017 which has permanent legal force.

Not only that, Taufik also questioned the validity of KT Corporation in submitting an application. Because, in 2003, the one associated with the Company was KT Freetel Co. ltd, and then in 2006 the relationship shifted to PT KTF Indonesia.

"This case is an old case, it has been more than 10 years, even KT Corporation has also submitted a request for reconsideration to the Supreme Court and it was rejected based on the Supreme Court decision No. 104PK / Pdt.G / 2019 dated March 27, 2019," he said, via official statement received by VOI, Monday, August 3.

Taufik said that the Commercial Court should have rejected the KT Corporation application because it was not supported by valid legal facts. He considered that the petition was submitted as part of an effort to seek sensation in the midst of the world's economic conditions which are facing the COVID-19 pandemic.

"The actions taken by KT Corporation have entered into an act of defamation, and the company will take the necessary steps to protect its rights, including through criminal reporting to the police," he said.
