JAKARTA - PT Pertamina (Persero) will certainly compensate for the losses suffered by the community due to the fire at the Oil Fuel Terminal (TBBM) or Plumpang Depot.

However, the nominal that must be paid is still being submitted.

Special Staff to the Minister of SOEs Arya Sinulingga ensured that the entire compensation budget came from PT Pertamina's internal income (Persero).

Even so, Arya was still reluctant to reveal the nominal prepared by the company for compensation and compensation for the families of the victims.

"(Use) Pertamina's money, the regulations for Pertamina and Pertamina's budget," he told reporters, Tuesday, March 7.

Although he did not mention the nominal prepared, Arya said the compensation provided included funeral money, hospital driver's fees until he recovered. Including, logistical assistance for the victim's house.

The main thing is that those who died were funeral expenses, spiritual money, maintenance costs were borne by Pertamina. Then also houses that caught fire had logistical assistance. "I haven't dared to say a total (the money the victim got)," he said.

Previously reported, PT Pertamina (Persero) confirmed that it would be responsible for the great fire incident that occurred at the Plumpang Depo in Koja, North Jakarta, on Friday night, March 3.

This was revealed by PT Pertamina (Persero) Vice President for Corporate Communication Fadjar Djoko Santoso in a written statement, Saturday, March 4.

"Pertamina is responsible and committed to continuing to provide the best for the refugees, including maintenance costs for injured and compensation for the victims," he said.
