Bahlil: I Will Crack Down on Mining Permits That Violate Regulations

Media Indonesia | Local Language | News | Dec. 5, 2025 | Regulation

Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Bahlil Lahadalia has pledged to take strict action against mining companies that violate regulations, especially those causing community losses. He emphasized the government's commitment to revoke permits of companies not operating according to legal standards, following recent hydrometeorological disasters in Sumatra reportedly linked to mining activities.

Bahlil instructed the Director General of Minerals and Coal to immediately evaluate mining permits and act decisively against non-compliant businesses. He reaffirmed that illegal mining practices would be eradicated without hesitation, aligning with the President’s directive to maintain natural resource sovereignty and crack down on illegal mining networks.

Additionally, Bahlil highlighted the efforts of the Forest Area Regulation Task Force (Satgas PKH), which the Ministry of ESDM is part of, in reclaiming more than 3.3 million hectares of illegally used state forest land. This land is being redirected for productive management and conservation purposes, with ongoing efforts to regulate 4.2 million hectares of illegal mining to benefit the public and preserve national assets through coordinated legal and administrative actions.
