Sudirman Said,Energy and Mineral Resources Minister
We need to change how we do business

Two steps taken by Energy and Mineral Resources Minister Sudirman Said on irregularities in Indonesia's energy sector have propelled him into the public limelight. The first move was his dissolution of Pertamina Energy Trading Ltd. (Petral) and having it audited. The results have now been submitted to the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK). Last week, the KPK began its investigation on Petral, a subsidiary company of state-owned oil and gas company Pertamina.

Hardly was the Petral case resolved when Sudirman made another sensational news. He reported House of Representatives (DPR) Speaker Setya Novanto to the House ethics committee. The reason is that Setya misrepresented President Joko Widodo and Vice President Jusuf Kalla in the process of extending the contract of work of mining giant Freeport Indonesia.
