SIMBARA: A Digital Effort for Indonesia's Natural Resource Management (Part 1) Digital governance, particularly the Mineral and Coal Information System (SIMBARA), was emphasized by Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan shortly after being appointed as the Head of the National Economic Council. SIMBARA itself has been promoted by the National Corruption Prevention Strategy (Stranas PK) for two action periods to strengthen the governance of non-tax state revenue. The government has launched the second edition of the Mineral and Coal Information System (SIMBARA) in July 2024. It's called the second edition because the first SIMBARA was launched on March 8, 2022, aiming to integrate coal export data from upstream to downstream. This means that only coal commodities had their data flowing in the first SIMBARA. Other minerals, such as tin and nickel, were only integrated on July 22, 2024. Before delving deeper into the newly launched second edition of SIMBARA, let's briefly recall what SIMBARA is and its importance for the nation in general and corruption prevention specifically. Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment, a position he held at the time, Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan, in his speech during the launch of SIMBARA's second edition, mentioned the tin case involving Sandra Dewi's husband, which slightly explains the importance of SIMBARA for Indonesia. This aligns with what Finance Minister Sri Mulyani said on the same day. The Finance Minister even repeated three times the content of Article 33 paragraph 3 of the 1945 Constitution, stating that the earth, water, and natural resources contained therein are controlled by the state and used for the greatest prosperity of the people. Meanwhile, the National Corruption Prevention Strategy (Stranas PK) continues to oversee the implementation and development of SIMBARA in the 2023-2024 corruption prevention action period under the action name: Strengthening the Governance of Non-Tax State Revenue (PNBP) for Mineral and Coal Commodities. Stranas has been promoting the implementation of SIMBARA since the 2021-2022 action period, which falls under Focus 2 (State Finance) in accordance with Presidential Regulation No. 54 of 2018 on Stranas PK. The basis for implementing this action is to fulfill the mandate of Article 33 paragraph 3, ensuring that Indonesia's natural resources are used for the greatest prosperity of the people. However, before the implementation of SIMBARA, the services for mineral and coal commodities were still separated among ministries and institutions. Each ministry had its own system and documents from upstream to downstream, which were non-transparent and non-integrated, creating opportunities for corruption that benefited only a few.

Local Hawkers in Commerce and TNC's and MNC's Contrast There are local and foreign agencies, that are directly linked, with the greater good services and outcome. This in fact is a local and global trend, in pursuing enterprise and other forms of consumer oriented competitive advantage. The local hawker's involvement in business 😎 and commerce, vouches for the collateral impacts, of behavioural attitudinal cross cutting impacts and values. It warrants indepth assessment and analysis, to circumvent and understanding it's local outsourcing involvement and operations. Apart from the Visama Rice Mill and Ajesh Chand's micro dairy cultured food industry, the other food procurement and production plants, were a thriving force, for consideration. A spreadsheet of such features includes, the National Marketting Authority(NMA), Goodman Fielder, Wing Zoing Wah, Land Transportation industry, Rewa Rice Ltd, assorted perfumes and cosmetics, marine life, cultural creative work, dairy milk produce etc, etc. Apparently while the strategic involvement of the states executive positions, with the Rewa Rice Ltd, land transportation industry cannot be overlooked, it's harmful effects on the grassroots hawker business setbacks, is indeed critical. As an illustration, the states monopolization of the local economy, disadvantaged the local hawker bus 🚌 services, by making bold 😀 allowances, for a joint amalgamated corporate public utility services. Rewa Rice Limited ( RRL) and the National Marketting Authority (NMA), acted as liquidating agency, for the incoming Goodman Fielder corporate brand enterprise, in which the local hawker's involvement were disadvantaged. This in fact was the reason among other things, that led to my social distancing, of the Rewa Rice Ltd, while pursuing with the APO assignment. The startup theory and rationales, is still 🔥 in it's infancy stage, in situations where the states continue to manipulate and assert, it's interests, on things which are best handled, at the grassroots. As an illustration, the Goodman Fielder current services, especially it's further associated involvement, with the Aussie based Wilmah, is in the hands of the TNC'S and MNC'S. Terms and terminologies used by the TNC'S and MNC'S, such as game changer, artificial intelligence( AI), corporatization etc, etc, are becoming memories and forces to be reckoned with simultaneously. They correspond with Benedict Anderson's views of imagined communities and it's hegemonic revolutionary humane crisis. Such forms of authoritative subjectivity and supremacists, are a major stumbling blocks 🚫 for locals, especially the most vulnerable and endangered.

https://lnkd.in/gmaFqv_j It is suspected that the spread of TB disease in Indonesia has increased significantly. Is the increase in TBS cases a new phenomenon? Whatever the answer, why the increase occurred? Hasn't Indonesia targeted the elimination of TB by 2030? Dr dr Dicky Budiman is an Indonesian epidemiologist who has been involved in various global and national health issues. Dr Dicky Budiman explained that Indonesia is in second place with the largest number of TB cases. With a quarter of the world's latent TB, is in Indonesia. He also explained the factors that cause or trigger TB.

My opinion piece, published in stratsea, contends that Indonesia's 2024 Pilkada demonstrates a disturbing shift from democratic decentralization to centralized power consolidation by Jakarta elites. The domination of KIM Plus, aided by oligarchic networks and the misappropriation of state resources, weakens local sovereignty and plurality. The Pramono Anung-Rano Karno triumph in Jakarta is an anomaly, highlighting a larger pattern of democracy being co-opted for power consolidation. https://lnkd.in/gfc9RTjc

Much has been said about how the new, incoming #Indonesia president Prabowo will provide business continuity, building on the legacy of his predecessor Jokowi. However that does not mean business can rest easy. A new head of government will have its own agenda which means making the effort to build relationships across a range of players and being prepared for shifts. I think developments around the new capital city currently being built will be an example of adopting this mindset when doing business in Indonesia. The business politics are nicely explained in this article from The Jakarta Post

23. Scholarship series / America 🇭🇲 ⏰ Fullbright Scholarship The American Indonesian Exchange Foundation (AMINEF) is the bi-national Fulbright Commission for Indonesia. For thirty years, we have carried forward the vision and mission of the Fulbright program in Indonesia, which in 2022 celebrated its 70th anniversary. AMINEF’s many educational exchange programs have increased mutual understanding between the United States and Indonesia and strengthened the ties that unite our two countries. Since 1952, 3,330 Indonesians and 1,375 Americans have participated in exchanges. Approximately 80 percent of the Indonesians received graduate degrees at the master's or doctoral levels from American universities. The remaining 20 percent participated in non-degree exchanges administered by AMINEF. However, in the programs outside our core program, and except for the RISTEK-DIKTI program, our goal has not specifically focused on a preference for university lecturers. For example, the Fulbright–KEMLU program, funded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and drawn to a close in 2016, has supported junior diplomats to study for master's and PhD degrees. The FIRST program mentioned above also provides grants to applicants from varied backgrounds and institutions and is not restricted to academic lecturers. ⏳ Program Fullbright: Master's degree, Doctoral degree, and Fullbright visiting scholar program. Opening every last of the years until 15 February on the next yrs. 🤝 See the application timeline and additional document for preparation in advance: https://www.aminef.or.id/

SIMBARA: A Digital Effort for Indonesia's Natural Resource Management (Part 2) From upstream, meaning from the mining process, where permits are issued by the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources in the form of RKAB (Work Plan and Budget Plan for Mineral and Coal Mining Activities, covering business, technical, and environmental aspects), to downstream, which is the issuance of a sailing permit (SPB) by the Ministry of Transportation. In addition, each coal exporter must fulfill several obligations, including DMO (Domestic Market Obligation) to ensure a sustainable domestic supply of coal, such as for fuel supply at PLN and PLTU for the country's electricity supply. DMO also aims to optimize state revenue. Domestic Market Obligation (DMO) is an obligation for Business Entities or Permanent Business Entities to hand over part of their oil and gas to the state through the Energy and Mineral Resources Regulatory Agency (BP Migas). Apart from the DMO, governance steps that mining entrepreneurs must go through include the issuance of royalty payment proofs, export approvals, surveyor reports, and sailing permits. Each of these requires documents from more than 5 ministries, previously handled manually, with each ministry having its own system. The Minister of Finance mentioned that there are at least 10 systems and 50 documents from various ministries and agencies, such as the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM), Ministry of Trade, Ministry of Industry, and Ministry of Transportation. The lack of integrated and transparent systems complicates data and document tracking, opens up opportunities for corruption, and potentially causes losses to the state. Stranas PK recorded two main types of violations: avoiding Non-Tax State Revenue (PNBP) and tax evasion. Tax evasion actions include illegal mining and sales, purchasing from illegal miners, reducing coal calorific value, blending to obscure coal origin, and misuse of registered exporters (ET). Tax avoidance actions occur in three main aspects. The first aspect is production and sales, where corrupt practices include unreported business turnover, profit-sharing from mining services, sales to foreign traders under single control, and misuse of ET recommendations. Corrupt practices in cost aspects include inflating Cost of Goods Sold (HPP) by charging costs on income and not recording the final inventory of mining goods. The third aspect is transportation services, where there is a mismatch between VAT exemption facilities and the applicable regulations.

The Roundtable Discussion held today in the Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), Indonesia, was very candid and productive. And the publication is out now! Please check the link below to download. Ambassador Lee Jang-keun, Korean Ambassador to ASEAN, mentioned the meaningful achievements made throughout the year, especially for the comprehensive strategic partnership between #Korea and #ASEAN, the current situation in the Korean Peninsula. But the publication's about #AKCF Asean-Korea Cooperation Fund. But the real essence of this project is to gather candid views and food-for-thought input from bright scholars in the region. Waffaa Kharisma is mentioned in the forward of the publication of all the details. Muhammad Faizal Bin Abdul Rahman is for Asean's #cybersecurity cooperation. Nurliana Kamaruddin is for the 2025 #Malaysia Chairmanship. Rizal Sukma is for his views on what ASEAN should do to keep its pole: not be swayed by external partners but stand firm with its own feet on the ground to maintain its Centrality. Today's discussion, we are also pleased to have Joanne Lin and Chiew Ping HOO for their candid and strategic views to be shared. Joanne, in particular, shares her insightful views on how #middlepower in the region, like Korea and Australia, can work together with ASEAN. She quotes the result of ISEAS - Yusof Ishak Institute (ISEAS) annual survey, the State of Southeast Asia. It is interesting to see how ASEAN sees itself as the champion of free trade and explores more of the outward views. She also emphasises distinguishing output and outcome. To materialise outcomes, more strategic inputs and views need to be tapped into rather than bringing dichotomous geopolitical rivalry to the region. Dialogue Partners are more than just about China and the US. This resonates a lot, thanks Joanne. Dr Hoo, a defence expert, especially regarding Korea, mentioned Korea's engagement with ASEAN member state defence cooperation bilaterally first and expanded incrementally. North Korea's military presence in Russia, how ASEAN should digest it. Speaking of #ADMM-Plus, it is often said that the first line of defence is indeed diplomacy. Therefore, including the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the defence dialogue can create synergy for common interests encompassing areas such as SCS CoC, Ukraine, Gaza situation and AI threats in military capacity. And the region needs to understand better what all these peripheral states do to destabilise the security in the region, including the actions by North Korea.  This kind of 🧠 brain exercise can be very 'nutritious' to the region and the regional experts to think and deep dive in amid the intense geopolitical rivalry and multipolarity. I truly thank you all! This is my last project to handle in 2024. Publication link blow

We are delighted to have our #GIFtedPeople Iqbal Affandi, Natasya Putri, and Muhammad Aldy Pratama participate in the 2nd IKI Communications and Digital Training held by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH. The event mainly discussed how impactful campaigns can catalyze changes and create strong advocacy for a #sustainable world. We got many insightful insights from the event, including that changes happen because of the society's collective action that comes after a collective awareness was made. Thus, to create that collective awareness, the campaigns that we are doing need to be consistent and reach the grassroots stakeholders who are key to change. Reaching grassroots actors also means that we need to simplify the complex information the message that we are trying to pass through can be processed easily by everyone. However, we realize from our #experience that it is not the easiest thing to simplify complex information. Thus, it was a reminder for us that we also need to understand the context of the audience that we are talking to and to collaborate with like-minded figures to amplify our messages. We have so many precious #learnings which summary you can see on the PDF pages!

It was a proud moment for us at Indonesia Communications (ID COMM) to introduce our collaboration with PT Tempo Inti Media Tbk, Fireside Session. This event is a testament to our commitment at ID COMM to collaborate with the media beyond earned engagements allowing both parties to grow together in this trying time for the media industry. We developed this stakeholder engagement event to facilitate an open discussion between industry players and policymakers that can foster better governance in policy-making as well as productive sharing of ideas towards better innovative solutions for the industry moving forward. It is a closed-door session with participants leaving their laptops and gadgets at the door. The forum is intended to be an intimate experience for both speakers and participants, thus, no tables are provided. As the name suggests, we would like to have the feel of a discussion being held in front of the fireplace during a cold winter's night, ie deep and meaningful discussion without any restraints with the hope that it would break down any communication barriers during open discussions alike for a better understanding and hopefully towards a much-optimized policy. This was the first of many moving forward. We still have time to contribute to the development of this nation and we can't wait to do the next one. Onwards! #IDCOMM #PRAgency #mediacollaboration #earnedengagement #publicrelations #stakeholderengagement

Delivering my final RECOMMENDATIONS on INDONESIA'S HEALTHCARE REFORM FRAMEWORK. Healthcare regulations address issues of accessibility and affordability, aiming to ensure healthcare services are available to all individuals, regardless of their socioeconomic status or insurance coverage. Thus, the implementing regulations on UU no. 17, needs to focus on promoting equity and fairness in healthcare delivery, regulations prevent discrimination, ensure equal access to care, and reduce health disparities. This includes providing R&D based innovative drugs to have a fair share in supporting public health. Next question, where will BPJS go and how will COB takes shape?

My op-ed about the urgency of unified data in Indonesia's social welfare programs is published in The Jakarta Post today. In this regard, with its long experience in conducting massive undertaking of data collection and managing large-scale population data, BPS-Statistics Indonesia should take the lead and the institution must be transformed to have extended authority.
