The Government is Ready to Face Churchill’s Accusation

JAKARTA – Indonesian Government will face the accusation of England mining company, Churchill Mining Plc, accusing Indonesian Government for US$ 2 billion or Rp 18 trillion because of mining permit revocation of its subsidiary in East Kutai.

“If they accused us, we would face them. We’ll prepare any documents we have because the mission is protecting our country,” said Jero Wacik in Jakarta, Thursday (5/7/2012).

According to him, the law works facing the case. “It is a process. Our duty is protecting our country,” said Jero Wacik.

Jero Wacik stated that the problem initiated from the mining permit revocation of a mining company in East Kutai (Ridlatama) by the Regent of East Kutai. Then, the Regent was accused in State Administrative Court and he won.

Ridlatama then appealed but still failed. “It turns out that Churchill Mining Plc from England is behind the company and accused us. There is no record of that fact both in Regent and MEMR, though foreign companies taking part in investing are obligated to report to the Regent and MEMR.”

“We have to protect the country. We’ll see that the truth will win,” said Jero Wacik. (AK)
