President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) has given a number of religious organizations the opportunity to manage mining businesses. Religious organizations are given access to obtain Special Mining Business Permits (IUPK). This is regulated in Government Regulation (PP) Number 25 of 2024 concerning amendments to Government Regulation Number 96 of 2021. This PP regulates the Implementation of Mineral and Coal Mining Business Activities and was signed by the President on May 30 2024.[1]

"In order to improve community welfare, WIUPK can be carried out on a priority basis to Business Entities of religious community organizations," wrote Article 83A (1) PP 25/2024, quoted on Sunday (2/6/2024). "The share ownership of religious community organizations in a Business Entity must be the majority and they must be investors," states Article 83 (4) PP 25/2024.[2]

The religious organizations regulated in this article are those that carry out economic activities and aim to provide economic empowerment. Both for members and the community/people.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.

A resident died after eating rice noodles (Kwetiau) at a shop in Taiwan. This incident started when dozens of people fell ill after eating at the shop. A media report reported that many customers at Polam Kopitiam fell ill after eating there. It is known that Polam Kopitiam is a restaurant that serves dishes from Malaysia and is quite popular in Taiwan. This restaurant is famous for its delicious vegetarian menus, unfortunately the shocking news came from this outlet. The Deputy Minister of Health and Welfare confirmed that mass food poisoning occurred at Polam Kopitiam, Xinyi, Taiwan. It was also recorded that at least 35 people became ill after eating there in the period 18 - 24 March.[1]

A total of 4 people were even rushed to the ICU to get more serious help. The latest news is that patients who are in the ICU can no longer have their lives saved. Based on preliminary investigation data, it is suspected that there is 'bongkrek' acid contamination in the food at this restaurant. 'Bongkrek' acid is a poison that can attack the respiratory tract.[2]

'Bongkrek' acid is not only produced by chemical solutions, but can also be formed from fermentation of coconut or corn. One of the recorded fatalities was a 40 year old woman. This customer is said to have fallen ill after eating kwetiau and when he returned home he experienced symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and severe diarrhea. He was treated in the ICU for a month but his condition continued to decline day by day.[3] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.
