JAKARTA - Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Bahlil Lahadalia opened his voice regarding the appointment of Simon Aloysius Mantiri as President Director of PT Pertamina (Persero) replacing Nicke Widyawati.

"The system is already running, the change of leadership is a normal thing. Moreover, it depends on the leadership, the Minister of SOEs (Erick Thohir) and the President (Prabowo Subianto)," Bahlil told the media, Monday, November 4.
He said, Erick Thohir as Minister of SOEs certainly had a special assessment in the appointment of Simon Mantiri as President Director
"Usually it's in BUMN. Of course the MenBUMN has special assessments to rotate to anyone who will be replaced, including Pertamina," explained Bahlil.
Bahlil continued, he will hold a coordination meeting with Pertamina's new leadership this week to discuss the lifting of Indonesian oil.
"Oh, I have a very important interest in Pertamina because 65 percent of our lifting is controlled by Pertamina," Bahlil continued.
