Coordinating Economic Minister Hatta Rajasa has asked the management
of PT Freeport Indonesia, the Indonesian unit of US mining giant
Freeport-McMoran, to settle a dispute with its workers that led to a
strike on Thursday, planned for a month.“I will ask the managing
director of Freeport to find a solution to this, to mediate [the
dispute] between the labor union and the management,” Hatta said before a
working meeting with lawmakers in Jakarta on Thursday.
“I hope
they find a solution because such strikes upset everyone. The workers
are upset because they can‘t work and Freeport can’t produce. And the
state revenue will drop,” he added, as quoted by kompas.com.
Hatta
also said he would communicate with the manpower and transmigration
minister to ask him to mediate if Freeport could not settle the problem
independently.
Thousands of Freeport Indonesia workers left
Freeport mining site in Grasberg, Papua, on Thursday morning after they
launched the strike, reportedly due to the management’s rejection of pay
rise proposed by their labor union.
