PALU - Central Sulawesi Governor Rusdy Mastura stated that the management and utilization of the potential of the mining sector must contribute to increasing regional fiscal, to support the implementation of Central Sulawesi development.
"Central Sulawesi is a very strategic area for investment purposes, including the mining sector or the energy sector for mineral resources. Therefore, the utilization of the mining sector must contribute to increasing regional fiscal capacity," said Rusdy Mastura, in Palu, reported by Antara, Sunday, May 22.
Rusdy Mastura explained that in the energy sector, Central Sulawesi's mineral resources have the potential for iron ore, oil and gas, nickel, gold and metals.
However, the Governor said, these potentials have not been maximally managed, and have not had a significant impact on improving the community's economy and regional fiscal.
"So the existing potentials must be managed as well as possible, in order to boost the development of community welfare," said Rusdy.
Central Sulawesi province, he said, is also rich in natural resources in the fisheries and marine sectors, as well as the agricultural, plantation and livestock sectors which can be developed by regional companies and their partners, for the advancement of the regional economy and society. PT Pembangunan Central Sulawesi can maximize its role in managing these potentials, so that it can support regional fiscal improvement.
"So that in the future, we hope that Perusda PT Pembangunan Sulteng will be able to provide support for that, therefore please the commissioners and directors to be able to grow this company and provide benefits to the development of Central Sulawesi," said the Governor.
Rusdy Mastura also asked the Central Government to review the calculation of the revenue-sharing funds for the energy and mineral resources sector.
"Central Sulawesi is an area that contributes greatly to the state budget from the energy sector of mineral resources. Therefore, it is necessary to recalculate the profit-sharing fund," he said.
