Studying Efficiency In BUMN, Erick Thohir Wants To Cut Official Travel And Number Of Commissioners

JAKARTA - Minister of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) Erick Thohir admitted that he would review the operations of state-owned companies. This review aims for efficiency.

Erick said this efficiency review would involve the Head of the Anagata Nusantara Resources Investment Management Agency (Danantara) Rosan Perkasa Roeslani.

"I also had discussions with Mr. Rosan, maybe we also reviewed operations in BUMN for efficiency again," said Erick at the Ministry of SOEs, Jakarta, written Tuesday, May 6.

Erick opens the possibility to make efficiency in terms of official travel and reduce the number of commissioners in state-owned companies.

"We are discussing whether there is an official trip, whether the number of commissioners. We will discuss this according to the President's direction to be more efficient," he said.

Erick explained that the efficiency carried out does not mean it will reduce the economic impact.

But on the other hand, according to him, efficiency is carried out by relocating the budget to make it more efficient.

Therefore, Erick said that the economic impact will still be felt by the community in the midst of the government's efficiency policy.

"We hope that with this efficiency, the economic mindset will not immediately be formed. This is just shifting the budget. Give the government the opportunity to shift the budget, of course there will still be a review process," he said.
