JAKARTA - Investment Minister or Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) Bahlil Lahadalia emphasized that mining management by community organizations (ormas) will later be given to business entities under the auspices of these organizations.
"Look. We give it to mass organizations not to their organizations but to business entities owned by the mass organizations," Bahlil told the media when met at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources Building, Thursday, June 6.
On the same occasion Bahlil also answered the doubts of several parties about the ability of community organizations (ormas) to manage mines.
Bahlil said that mining entrepreneurs also initially did not have experience in the mining sector.
"Look, if you want to talk about experience, does the company that started mining immediately have mining experience? It's a process," Bahlil told the media crew at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources Building, Thursday, June 6.
According to Bahlil, as long as religious organizations that will receive IUP meet the qualifications and requirements set by the government, these mass organizations can carry out mining activities.
"So if the way people think in mines directly means that other entrepreneurs are not allowed to enter the mining world, only mining people? As long as they comply with the regulations, there are qualifications in mining, we must give opportunities," said Bahlil.

When asked about concerns from various parties about the emergence of horizontal conflicts between social organizations (ormas) due to the granting of mining management permits from the Bahlil government, it was an excessive reaction.
"It's really too late if there is a conflict," he added.
Bahlil said he would soon hold a special press conference at his office to thoroughly discuss PP No. 25 of 2024 concerning the Implementation of Mineral and Coal Mining Business Activities signed by President Joko Widodo on May 30.
"Tomorrow, everyone. Tomorrow there will be a press conference at the Ministry of Investment before (prayer) Friday to discuss this," concluded Bahlil.
