JAKARTA - President Director of Agrinas Pangan Nusantara Joao Angelo De Sousa Mota admitted that he did not have a budget, because no budget has been allocated from the government for Food Agrinas.
As is known, PT Agrinas Pangan Nusantara (Persero) was officially launched on Wednesday, May 14. This company is a transformation of BUMN Karya PT Yodya Karya (Persero).
"So far it is zero, there is no (budget). So until today we have not received funds from the government or funds from the public," he told reporters, written Thursday, May 15.
The man who is familiarly called Jo admitted that the government had given a budget of Rp. 3 trillion. However, the budget was not further processed because it was waiting for the certainty of a detailed development plan, aka the details of engineering design (DED).
According to Jo, after the DED is completed, it will be known what measuring instruments supporting agriculture such as tractors, commodity harvesters, what materials are needed, the methods used to the amount of workforce.
"Only later will the budget appear so that the budget is the last. But we must prepare preparations so that when we need it we can immediately get financial support, because after all that is the key rather than starting or one activity," he said.
Previously, Deputy Minister of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) Kartika Wirjoatmodjo revealed that the Anagata Nusantara Power Investment Management Agency (BPI Danantara) would inject funds to BUMN Food Agrinas.
The Ministry of SOEs has formed three BUMN Food Agrinas. The company is a transformation of BUMN Karya, namely PT Indra Karya (Persero) to PT Agrinas Palma Nusantara (Persero); PT Yodya Karya (Persero) to PT Agrinas Pangan Nusantara (Persero); and PT Virama Karya to PT Agrinas Jaladri Nusantara (Persero).
In line with the plan, the man who is familiarly called Tiko asked the three SOEs to immediately draw up a long-term business plan so that it could be accepted by Danantara.

"On the commissioner side, on the side of the audit committee, on the side of risk management, and the Ministry of SOEs continues to carry out governance in management and of course we hope it will run," he said.
