JAKARTA - Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Bahlil Lahadalia opened his voice regarding the issue of termination of employment (PHK) for Shell Indonesia employees due to fuel vacancies.
According to Bahlil, this can be overcome by the company by collaborating with PT Pertamina (Persero). Bahlil also admitted that he had held a meeting with Shell, BP-AKR and Pertamina officials to discuss fuel vacancies.
"Actually, they can collaborate with Pertamina. And yesterday I chaired the meeting," Bahlil explained, quoted on Tuesday, September 16.
Not only himself, Bahlil admitted that the Deputy Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, Yuliot Tanjung, had also held a meeting with private fuel service providers with Pertamina.
"But later I will check the latest developments from the team that I formed yesterday to overcome this," continued Bahlil.
On the same occasion, Bahlil again denied the assumption that the government was limiting the import of private fuel. At the beginning of Bahlil said that he had provided 100 percent extra quota plus 10 percent of the 2024 quota.
"So it is very inappropriate if we say the import quota is not given," he added.

Regarding the shortcomings that are still happening, Bahlil asked Shell and BP AKR to work together to supply fuel from Pertamina as state-owned oil and gas companies.
Bahlil reasoned, everything related to the lives of many people should be controlled by the state so that everything goes well.
"If there are still shortcomings, we ask to collaborate with Pertamina. Why? Because this is related to the lives of many people," said Bahlil.
