P

resident Joko “Jokowi” Widodo will soon announce the name of the new president director of state-owned energy company Pertamina to Dwi Sutjipto, who was dismissed from his position recently along with his deputy, Ahmad Bambang, a minister has said.

“For the new Pertamina president director, we are waiting for the President’s decision that will be made soon,” said State-Owned Enterprises Minister Rini Soemarno in Jakarta on Friday, as reported by tribunnews.com.

She said that the government, as the owner of the company, would maintain the structure of the current board of directors, except the president director.

Board of commissioners of state-owned energy company Pertamina had submitted three candidates from Pertamina executives for the company president director position.

There were also candidates from outside Pertamina that reportedly include Energy and Mining Resources Deputy Minister Archandra, state-owned Plantation Holding president director Elia Massa Manik and state-owned electricity company PLN president director Sofyan Basir.

Previously, Rini said that the name of Pertamina's CEO would be announced sometime this March. (bbn)
