FOREIGN SHARE DIVESTMENT STARTING THE 6TH YEAR OF PRODUCTION - MAJALAH TAMBANG


The government would set a divestment scheme for foreign miners, which would require companies to divest their ownership starting the 6th year of production. The divestment process would be arranged to gradually reach a total sum of 20% by the end of the 9th year. The technical arrangement for the divestment scheme has been included in the government regulation draft (RPP in its Indonesian abbreviation) as an implementation of the new Mining Law (Law No.4/2009).

S. Witoro Soelarno, Secretary of the Directorate General of Mineral, Coal and Geothermal – Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, explained that the divestment’s percentage sum and timetable would also take the interest of the related mining companies into account.

Article 112, Section 1, of the Mining Law stipulated that after 5 years of production, Mining Permit (IUP in its Indonesian abbreviation) and Special Mining Permit (IUPK in its Indonesian abbreviation) owner, whose shares owned by foreigners, are obliged to divest their shares to national entities. The national entities referred to are including central government, local government, state owned enterprises (BUMN in its Indonesian abbreviation), province owned enterprises (BUMD in its Indonesian abbreviation), or national private enterprises.

Some has considered that the regulation might be a threat for investors, since the mining business is long term in nature and that it would require extra budget. If investors must divest their shares in just five years period, they might face a financial trouble because no one would guarantee the expected return for their business.

“The condition would certainly caused difficulties and hesitation for the investors to invest their capital,” M Fadhil Hasan, an economist from the Institute for Development of Economic and Finance (INDEF), asserted.

Nevertheless, Witoro argued that the government would arrange the divestment scheme in the best manner, through the government regulation draft that is currently being prepared.
