Dahlan skips another House hearing for cattle project
State-Owned Enterprises Minister Dahlan Iskan did not
show up for the second time in a hearing session held by the House of
Representatives over the alleged mismanagement of PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara
(PLN), which led to the state suffering Rp 36 trillion (US$3.78 billion) in
losses.
“We are very disappointed as this is a very serious matter. Dahlan Iskan is the
former state power firm PLN chief and that is why we need him to be present. We
did not summon him in his capacity as a minister,” said Effendi Simbolon of the
Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-P) who chaired the hearing
session.
