        "content": "<p>Environment Minister Jumhur Hidayat has called on those responsible\nfor environmental destruction to immediately halt their activities. He\nemphasised that all parties live on the same earth, so the\nresponsibility to protect the environment must be undertaken\ncollectively. \u201cEnvironmental destroyers, stop it! Find ways to gradually\nensure that destructive behaviour towards the environment ceases,\u201d said\nJumhur during a speech at the IPB Alumni Synergy for the Nation event at\nthe Borobudur Hotel in Jakarta on Saturday (2\/5). Jumhur then touched on\nthe case of the revocation of permits for 28 companies that violated\nregulations related to forest utilisation in Sumatra. As the General\nChairman of the Indonesian Confederation of Trade Unions (KSPSI), Jumhur\nrecounted receiving complaints from an organisation stating that around\n1,700 workers were affected after the company they worked for had its\npermit revoked. \u201cChairman, 1,700 of our members at that company are now\nunemployed,\u201d said Jumhur, quoting the report he received. However, based\non internal reports, Jumhur stated that the company had actually met the\nrequirements (compliance). Nevertheless, environmental factors such as\nlandslides and floods in the surrounding area still impacted the\ncompany, requiring repeated inspections. Jumhur admitted he does not\nwant such situations to continue because they can harm many parties,\nincluding workers. He emphasised the importance of balancing economic\ngrowth with environmental sustainability. According to him, business\nactivities must still proceed and drive the economy, but while ensuring\nthe environment remains well-protected. \u201cI am saddened if people are\npunished, suspended, or frozen because of the environment. I want it not\nto be like that; I want everyone to progress, work, and grow the\neconomy, but still ensure the environment is well-protected,\u201d said\nJumhur.<\/p>",
