        "summary": "The Head of the BUMN Regulatory Body (BP BUMN), Dony Oskaria, has reprimanded PT Perkebunan Nusantara (PTPN) for pursuing legal action against an elderly man who collected leftover rubber from its plantation. He instructed PTPN to withdraw the complaint, issue a formal apology, and offer employment to the man or his family, stressing that state-owned enterprises must prioritise public welfare over punitive measures. The case will serve as a red flag for all BUMNs to review their asset protection procedures and adopt restorative justice approaches.",
        "content": "<p>Head of the BUMN Regulatory Body (BP BUMN) and Chief Operating\nOfficer (COO) of Danantara, Dony Oskaria, has reprimanded PT Perkebunan\nNusantara (PTPN) management over the case of elderly Mujiran in Lampung.\nDony condemned the legal proceedings against Mujiran for collecting\nleftover rubber sap from PTPN\u2019s plantation, stating that criminalising a\nvulnerable individual contradicts the core principles of state-owned\nenterprises. \u201cI strongly condemn the reporting and criminalisation of\nordinary citizens, especially an elderly person like Kakek Mujiran.\nState-owned enterprises belong to the people, built with public funds,\nand mandated to maximise benefits for the public. There must be no room\nfor arrogance or such treatment of citizens,\u201d Dony stated in a written\nstatement on Sunday (24 May 2026). He instructed PTPN\u2019s management to\nimmediately withdraw the complaint, halt all legal processes or\nintimidation against Mujiran, and personally apologise on behalf of BP\nBUMN. Dony also directed local PTPN leadership to meet Mujiran and his\nfamily to deliver an institutional apology. \u201cAs Head of BP BUMN, I\napologise to Kakek Mujiran and his family. I reiterate that state-owned\nenterprises belong to the people and are funded by public money,\u201d he\nsaid. Additional instructions include providing adequate social\nassistance and offering suitable employment to Mujiran or his family\nmembers to ensure a stable income. \u201cWe must resolve welfare issues\nthrough guidance, not criminal prosecution. I have ordered that Kakek\nMujiran or his family be given work within PTPN. State-owned enterprises\nmust act as a protective solution, not a tool to imprison struggling\ncitizens,\u201d Dony added. BP BUMN and Danantara will treat this case as a\nred flag for all Indonesian BUMN directors. A comprehensive review of\nasset protection Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) will be conducted\nto prioritise humanistic and restorative justice approaches. \u201cBUMNs must\noperate in line with their mandate: to serve and work for the people,\u201d\nDony concluded.<\/p>",
