Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Arifin Tasrif conveyed a special message to PT Freeport Indonesia to prioritize the people of Papua, related to the transition of mining from the Grasberg open pit to an underground mine.

"This region has a huge potential for mineral resources. We have to take advantage of this. I am pleased that this work has been carried out by many local sons and daughters from Papua. This should be a special concern of Freeport's management to always foster, improve the human resources (human resources) that there are, "said Arifin in Papua, Sunday.

Arifin also said the government was conducting discussions with PT Freeport Indonesia's management regarding HR development. He said the government had an expanded polytechnic school program. This program will facilitate local human resources that can later be relied on in the mining industry including PT Freeport Indonesia.

"We have a polytechnic (mining) program. This facilitates local human resources which can later become a potential mainstay of the PT Freeport Indonesia mining industry. We must be able to develop in order to create harmony in the people of Papua. This is the Government's obsession supported by the Law," he explained .

Based on available data up to 2019, PT Freeport Indonesia's direct workforce is 6,943, consisting of 152 foreign workers and 6,791 Indonesian workers.

Meanwhile, Arifin also highlighted the continuation of PT Freeport Indonesia's production process which will be carried out at an underground mine. "Regarding the continuity of mining coper production carried out by PT Freeport Indonesia, try to find fast tracks and studies in order to reduce risks that can reduce production bottlenecks," Arifin said.

One of the obstacles that becomes the biggest challenge is related to the separation of water with the mining process (wet max).

"I believe in the ability of PT Freeport Indonesia, which has been in the mining industry for a long time," Arifin said.
