To be blunt, Ahok Uncovered the Problem at Pertamina
Ahok.
The President Commissioner of PT Pertamina Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (BTP) or who is usually called Ahok criticized the policies taken by the company's directors. According to him, Pertamina has the habit of borrowing debts to acquire oil refineries abroad.
In fact, according to him, it would be better for Pertamina to carry out domestic exploration because Indonesia still has the potential for 12 basins to produce oil and gas (oil and gas). He also suspects that the decision is related to dividing the commission between parties.
"Have borrowed USD 16 billion, every time his brain continues to borrow money, I am already annoyed. We continue to borrow, continue to acquire, we still have 12 basins that have the potential for oil and gas, what are you doing abroad? Maybe there is a commission," said Ahok. , quoted from the YouTube POIN account, Wednesday (16/9).
In addition, Ahok said, the construction of an oil refinery is currently inefficient. According to him, there are some investors who are serious about investing in oil refineries with Pertamina. However, these refineries have not yet been built.
Therefore, the former Governor of DKI Jakarta will hold a meeting to discuss this matter. "That's why later I want an important meeting about refineries. How many investors have offered to cooperate with you? Has it been offered, why was it rejected? Why work like this?" he said.
"I am currently going to audit (the refinery project), only I was emotional yesterday. They were provoking me to be emotional, I was emotional to report what the President? Ahok disturbed the harmony," added Ahok.
Apart from that, he also protested the Public Company for the Printing of Money of the Republic of Indonesia (Peruri) which offered a paperless project at Pertamina's office.
"I am pushing for a digital signature (at Pertamina), but Peruri asked for Rp. 500 billion for the peperless process, that's BUMN too. That's the same as getting a Pertamina project and then not wanting to work anymore, sleeping 10 years, wanting to become a python, so a python. , "said Ahok.
