Grief Has Not Yet Subsided, Mining Continues Unabated: Uncovering the Oligarchy’s Footprint Behind the Sumatra Catastrophe
Mining Advocacy Network - Indonesia retweeted
Environmentalists have been quick to denounce the move. Melky Nahar @melky_nahar, coordinator at the Mining Advocacy Network, or Jatam, said mining concessions would not be lucrative for religious organisations as “mining is not a sustainable [business]”.
“The economic model that is being pushed is unsustainable, very destructive, because it has more harm than benefits, particularly in the areas of food, water, and health in the places where the mines are,” Melky said.
He called the new regulation a form of “transactional politics between Jokowi and these mass organisations”, referring to Indonesia’s president by his popular nickname.
“They [religious organisations] have supported Jokowi’s regime a lot over the last 10 years. He offers these concessions so that religious organisations remain supportive of him after October,” Melky said.

@jatamnas "The electrification of the transportation system along with the new dependence on mineral batteries has been the trigger for the colonization of extraction areas in Indonesia... System Change, Not Energy Substitution"
Elektrifikasi sistem transportasi beserta ketergantungan baru pada mineral baterai telah menjadi picu kolonisasi wilayah-wilayah ekstraksi di Indonesia. Ekonomi rendah karbon yang dielu-elukan oleh negara-negara G20 sebagai mesin investasi hanya mengganti sokongan energi fosil ke “energi baru dan energi terbarukan”, dari kendaraan berbahan bakar fosil ke kendaraan listrik.

This is Wawonii, which had just a project when I visited in 2019. Now the mine is up and running, and water has turned red in the sea and inside people's homes

Do you know who are not happy with the ASEAN Summit in Labuan Bajo? The (Indonesian) Southeast Asians. Because they were evicted from their fields, plantations, and houses that're destroyed to build roads for the Southeast Asian elites cars to pass. Peak colonialism by ur own ppl
ASEAN Summit pada 9-11 Mei 2023, di Labuan Bajo menyisakan persoalan bagi sejumlah warga. Pembangunan jalan dengan anggaran lebih dari Rp400 miliar membuat sawah, kebun, dan rumah warga digusur tanpa ada ganti rugi.

More worrying news out of #Indonesia Morowali Industrial Park. IMIP is causing flash floods as rainforest lands are destroyed for nickel production. @JATAMupdates has been documenting environmental, labor, and community issues with the project.

President Jokowi’s ambition to make Indonesia a big player in electric vehicles is a big threat to the safety of citizens and the environment in the Sulawesi and Maluku Islands, to West Papua. jatam.org/en/the-catastrophe…
President Jokowi’s invitation to invest in a number of giant companies from Europe, is not in the framework of the welfare of local residents, on the contrary, it is a source of new disaster for residents and their living space.

The first set of trade-offs is environmental. Digging up and smelting nickel is a grubby trade. JATAM, a network of ngos, has accused Harita of making land grabs on Obi island, where it has a smelter, and of polluting the water around it.

"We will leave as soon as we can...before we have to be carried out." A huge nickel factory in #Indonesia is making locals sick, has killed workers, and is poisoning the environment.

A brief history of PT GNI's corporate crimes to the local residents, workers, and the environment in the recent press release by Indonesia's Mining Advocacy Network (JATAM). Thorough investigations are necessary for GNI's past human rights violations.
