DPR Highlights RKAB Difficult To Publish, Minister Of Energy And Mineral Resources' Subordinates Call The Staff Of The Malas Mining Company To Complete The Requirements

JAKARTA - Deputy Chairman of Commission VII DPR RI Maman Abdurahman highlighted the length of time the issuance of a Work Plan and Budget (RKAB) by the Directorate General of Mineral and Coal of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources for mining companies.

"Why is it so difficult for RKAB to come out?" Maman Abdurahman asked at the Hearing Meeting (RDP) with the Acting Director General of Mineral and Coal Bambang Suswantono.

Responding to this question, Bambang said that the issuance of RKAB by the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources was not difficult, provided that mining companies could complete the requirements for issuing the RKAB issued by the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources.

"I answered, it is not difficult, sir. As long as it is noted, business actors can complete their requirements. Because so far business actors have not been able to complete their business requirements," said Bambang.

According to Bambang, his party was even cooperative in holding a coaching clinic in February by summoning 4 to 5 per day to be given an explanation regarding the preparation of the RKAB.

"We will call 1 day 4 to 5 companies. On the spot. We will explain, we will explain everything. There are also 3 to 4 times the company has not been able to solve it either," continued Bambang.

Bambang admitted that his party was also continuing to find out the location of the cause of the RKAB delay.

Moreover, he also continued to be questioned by the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Arifin Tasrif regarding the delay in the issuance of this RKAB.

Bambang also concluded, from the findings in the field, many mining company staff were lazy in compiling reports and completing the RKAB requirements.

"If I may draw a conclusion, the staff of business actors are lazy to complete the requirements. He reported to the boss, 'Sir, it's been sent!' it turns out that there was no finding for me. The leaders of the contact companies, sir, I have sent them, I don't check yet. This often happens. So staff at the company who are lazy to complete the RKAB requirements," concluded Bambang.
