JAKARTA - Minister of Finance (Menkeu) Sri Mulyani encourages the active role of PT Pertamina (Persero) to support the energy transition in Indonesia towards a better direction.
According to the Minister of Finance, Pertamina has a strategic position in realizing this. The reason is, as the largest oil and gas SOE, Pertamina will be a barometer in optimizing environmentally friendly energy sources.
For this reason, the Minister of Finance wants Pertamina to be really serious in working on the new and renewable energy sector and not to override this important agenda with other mission targets.
"So Pertamina is no excuse: ma'am, we have a lot of missions. Yes, it's the same (Ministry of Finance too)," he said in a webinar on Tuesday, December 7.
The Minister of Finance then compared it with the scope of work of the Ministry of Finance, which has mandated tasks in various fields.
“Just like us, who have many fiscal missions in the APBN, we have to handle various goals, such as education, health, defense, security, and related to equity. But what needs to be remembered is that the energy sector is also important,” he said.
