The Bakrie Family

 The Bakrie family is back in the public spotlight. This time it is related to debts to the government that have not yet been paid.

Most recently, the Bakrie family became the government's target for the Bank Indonesia Liquidity Assistance (BLBI) receivables that occurred during the 1997-1998 financial crisis. Even the summons to pay debts to members of the Bakrie family was carried out through the National newspaper. The summons through the newspaper was made by the Chairman of the BLBI Task Force Rionald Silaban on Wednesday (15/9/2021). A number of names of Bakrie family members who were called were Nirwan Dermawan Bakrie and Indra Usmansyah Bakrie.

Both are known to be debtors of Bank Putera Multikarsa with a debt of Rp 22.7 billion.

The summons is scheduled for Friday, September 17, at 09.00-11.00 WIB at the Syafrudin Prawiranegara Building, North 4th Floor, Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia, JI. East Banteng Field 2-4, Central Jakarta. Looking back, this is not the only time the Bakrie family has been summoned by the government regarding their debt to the state. This is because the Bakrie family still has debts to the state related to the Lapindo mudflow.

Regarding Lapindo's debt, the Bakrie family has not yet made the payment, so the government is still pursuing it. The government has repeatedly stressed that collections will not be stopped until the debts of the company owned by the Aburizal Bakrie family are paid or paid off.

This was confirmed by the Director-General of State Assets of the Ministry of Finance, Rionald Silaban while talking to the media. According to him, currently, the government and Lapindo are still communicating about the debt.

"So Lapindo already has correspondence and now we have returned to provide feedback to Lapindo," he said some time ago.

The debt related to Lapindo which is wrapped around the Bakrie family began in March 2007. At that time the government provided a bailout fund to compensate for the Lapindo Mud disaster through an Anticipation Fund Loan agreement to pay off the purchase of land and buildings for the Sidoarjo Mudflow Victims in the Map of Affected Areas March 22, 2007.

At that time the Bakrie company obtained a loan of Rp 781.68 billion. However, the debt withdrawn from the government (bridging funds) amounted to Rp. 773.8 billion.

The loan agreement has a tenor of 4 years with an interest rate of 4.8%. While the agreed penalty is 1/1,000 per day of the loan value. When the agreement is agreed, Lapindo will pay in four installments so there is no need to pay a fine. Or paid off in 2019.

Since the state money was disbursed through the PRJ-16/MK.01/2015 agreement regarding the Provision of Anticipation Fund Loans to Pay Off the Purchase of Land and Buildings for the Residents of the Sidoarjo Mudflow Victims in the Map of Affected Areas on March 22, 2007, Lapindo has only paid in one installment.

Lapindo has just paid the government's bailout debt of Rp 5 billion out of total debt of Rp 773.8 billion. The Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) noted that Lapindo Brantas Inc and PT Minarak LapindoJaya must return the state money amounting to Rp 1.91 trillion.

The return of the state money is the principal, interest, and fines that must be paid by Lapindo for the bailout loan due to the mudflow in Sidoarjo, East Java.
