REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- The State Capital Injection (PMN) to 16 State-Owned Business Entities (BUMN) was approved by Commission VI of the DPR RI at a Working Meeting with Minister of SOE Erick Thohir on Wednesday (10/7/2024). Approval was given by all factions in the Commission VI as a whole with some light notes.
“Yesterday I attended the Working Meeting of the VI Commission of the DPR RI regarding the approval of the PMN for the budget year 2025. Thank God the entire faction of the VI Commission approved the PMN of the budget year 2025 that will be given to state-owned enterprises,” Erick said in his remarks in Jakarta, Thursday (11/7/2024).
One of the driving factors for the approval of the PMN proposal is because the reality of the contribution of SOEs to the state finances in the last five years is much higher than the approved PMN.
During 2020-2024, according to Erick, PMN granted to state-owned enterprises reached Rp 218 trillion. The value is lower than the dividends that SOEs deposited to the state treasury in the same period, worth Rp 280 trillion, before audit or unaudited.
“This means that PMN, which was previously financed from state-issued debt, could be financed from state-owned dividends,” Erick continued.
In fact, says Erick, the contribution of state-owned enterprises to the state is not only in the form of dividends. SOEs are also able to contribute to the state from the fiscal sector.
Erick said during the period 2020-2023, SOEs have contributed to the state with tax deposits of Rp 1.374 trillion and other Non-Tax State Revenue (PNBP) worth Rp 356 trillion to the state.
“Thanks to the appreciation, support and supervision of all Members of the VI Commission Board who contributed to the SOE can be even greater,” Erick continued.
Previously, Commission VI of the Parliament of the Republic of Indonesia has approved the PMN for Fiscal Year 2025 with details, first, of PT Hutama Karya (Persero) amounting to Rp 13.8 trillion. PMN Hutama Karya is to continue the construction of the Trans Sumatra Toll Road (JTTS) phase II.
