Jakarta, Aktual.com – Fund loan from China Development Bank (CDB) worth $ 1 billion to PT Bank Mandiri (Persero) turned out to be disbursed to the Medco Group to acquire the shares of PT Newmont Nusa Tenggara (NNT).
Step of Mandiri Bank is considered to violate the rules because the original purpose of the CDB loan funding is for the development of infrastructure.
“If it was so (disbursed to Medco’s acquisition of Newmont) is clearly not appropriate. This evidence is less oversight, “said an economist from Indef, Heri Ahmad Firdaus, to Aktual.com, Wednesday (13/4).
For that, he said, the government and Parliament also have to evaluate and oversee the process. He himself deplore the use of these funds are not targeted.
“To be better, there should be supervision from the first, so that nothing like this. And now there must be an evaluation of the CDB loan funds. This is a serious problem,” he stated.
According to Heri, state-owned banks that received disbursements from the CDB’s debt should be consistent with the original purpose, which is distributed to the development of infrastructure projects.
“If it is used Medco to buy Newmont shares, is clearly not appropriate,” he said.
He himself admits, have not the data regarding the flow of the CDB loan funds flowing into Medco used to buy Newmont shares.
When Aktual.com thrusting debtors list data from Mandiri are the company name of Medco Group, Heri asked that Parliament or the government in this case the Autority Financial Agency (OJK), Bank Indonesia and the Ministry of Finance immediately evaluate it.
“So to be evaluated as soon as possible,” he said.
Because if you talk to the goals, if it is for infrastructure can not be compromised for anything beyond that.
“So it should be a higher priority of Mandiri disbursed to the SOE of infrastructure. Because these loans could be to add capital to build the infrastructure,” said Heri.
Data owned Aktual.com, CDB loan of $ 1 billion for Mandiri should be used to finance infrastructure development. However, state-owned banks it turned out to be distributed to the Medco Group with a total loan of US $ 395 million or equivalent to Rp 5.1 trillion.
Consisting of PT Medco E & P Tomori worth US $ 50 million, PT Medco Energy International Tbk amounting to US $ 245 million and PT Medco Energi Internasional US $ 100 million.
These last two company names are similar, but by Mandiri made different. It’s also a bit odd. Later, PT Medco Energy International Tbk to acquire the Newmont shares.
