The Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal and Security Affairs, Mahfud MD, revealed mafia practices in the mining sector which resulted in the arrest of 126 coal ships. This was revealed at the Workshop on Synchronization of Main Mineral Mining Governance from a Polhukam Perspective which was broadcast via the Kemenkopolhukam YouTube channel on Tuesday, 21 March 2023.

The incident of the detention of a coal ship began when a businessman reported to Mahfud that his ship was detained even though the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) should have given permission to leave. Mahfud contacted Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Arifin Tasrif to inquire further about this.

The businessman said that if he did not get permission that day, he would leave the ship. In the end, Mahfud learned that there were 126 coal ships being detained and asked for money to be given permission to depart. According to Mahfud, the practice of detaining ships is part of the mining mafia in the area.

Meanwhile, Arifin revealed that this forum was initiated by the Coordinating Ministry for Political, Legal and Security Affairs as a form of support in implementing the management of potential mineral goods in Indonesia.

The projected coal production in 2023 is estimated to reach 695 million tons, up 4.82 percent from last year’s target with a projected domestic demand of 177 million tons and 518 million tons for export. Even so, mafia practices in the mining sector are still a serious problem that must be addressed immediately.

Inauguration of PT. Swarnadwipa Dermaga Jaya

PT Titan Infra Energy Group has inaugurated the 1D phase 1 upgrade project at PT. Swarnadwipa Dermaga Jaya on February 15, 2023. This is an important step to increase the production target in 2023 and shows the company’s commitment to continuing to grow and develop.

According to the Main Director of PT Titan Infra Energy, Darwan Siregar, the inauguration of the addition of this port facility is one of the company’s targets that must be achieved in accordance with the tag line “New Year, Target and New Story”. With public involvement, it is expected that companies can more easily obtain funding sources and improve the company’s infrastructure and operations.

PT Servo Lintas Raya (SLR) and PT Swarnadwipa Dermaga Jaya (SDJ) may also go public in the near future. Darwan hopes that all parties can support the targets that have been set so that increased production can have a positive impact and enhance cooperation between companies.

The company is ready to support the desire to go public and has prepared all requirements related to the legality and formality of the company. In addition, human resources and other supports are also an important part that will continue to be considered.

Based on the words of the COO of PT Titan Infra Energy, Suryo Suwignjo, the inauguration of this project will greatly increase the amount of production and support the production target of 20 million tonnes per year. In addition to cutting the ribbon, at this time’s inauguration a jug was also broken to start the operation of the 1D phase 1 conveyor upgrade, the operation of an additional weighbridge and crusher at the KM 36 stockpile.

The phase 1D project was implemented to develop existing port facilities to be able to support production targets. SDJ Port will continue to be developed in accordance with the high demand from users.
