Tommy Suharto: No Confiscation, People Don't Have Debts

BOGOR - Tommy Suharto stressed that there was no confiscation and no debt, regarding the government's plan to auction off the assets of PT Timor Putra Nasional in January 2022 belonging to Hutomo Mandala Putra alias Tommy Suharto.

"There was no confiscation, people don't have debts," said Tommy after the Groundbreaking of the New Palm Hill Club House in Sentul, Bogor, quoted by Antara, Friday, December 17.

However, Tommy was reluctant to explain what steps would be taken in the future.

"Later, next month, right. We'll wait. That's enough, yes," he said.

Currently Tommy Suharto is busy building an 87 hectares Eco Green Golf Course, 18 holes, worth 200 billion. This New Palm Hill Golf is the 4th Golf Course that Tommy Suharto has built, after successfully building the New Kuta Bali Golf Course, Black Rock in Belitung, and Palm Hill which is located in Kadumangu Babakan Madang Village, Sentul, Bogor.

It is planned that the construction of the New Palm Hill Eco Green Golf Course will be inaugurated by Tommy Suharto (President Commissioner of PT Boreco) together with Darma Mangku Luhur Hutomo (son of Tommy Suharto), as well as various members of the Board of Directors of PT BORECO.

With the concept of Eco Green and back to nature, this golf course uses solar panels instead and utilizes the potential of nature in the PT. BORECO, among others, uses wind power and river water currents which will be used to drive turbines, so that they can produce the electricity needed. For water needs, it also uses a Hydram Pump system, without electricity.

The Eco Green Golf Course, which was initiated by Tommy Suharto, will have more open areas and explore the beauty of nature with elements of water, stones, and plants that are very thick and dominate in the New Palm Hill environment.

Other supporting facilities are the Club House and Villa Inap which are very comfortable for golf players.

For supporting facilities to the location of the New Palm Hill Golf Course, PT. BORECO built a road infrastructure from Hambalang Village to Tajur Village, through to the access to the second peak, Bogor, where the PT. BORECO is surrounded by hills and pine forests belonging to Perhutani, as well as community plantation lands that have the potential for nature tourism because of their beauty.

The construction of this golf course is also an effort to develop natural tourism in the Bogor Raya Eco Park.

With a back to nature concept, the New Palm Hill Golf Course is supported by a very strategic location surrounded by Hambalang hills, Mount Pancar and Mount Gede Pangrango above an altitude of 250 meters above sea level.

It is estimated that the construction and operation of the New Palm Hill Golf course can absorb up to 500 to 1000 workers. In addition, the construction of this golf course is also part of the empowerment of the community around the golf course.
