Indonesia has temporarily banned coal exports from the 1st to the 31st of this month due to lack of supply to domestic thermal power plants.



Regarding this, Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Hagita, who is visiting Indonesia, met with Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Alifin on the 10th, saying, "Indonesian coal is important from the viewpoint of stable supply of electricity. I want you to understand, "he said, calling for the early lifting of the export ban.



There are concerns about the impact of this measure on export destinations such as China, India, and Japan. We have indicated a policy of considering the gradual resumption of exports.



However, before making a final decision to resume exports, it is necessary to consider whether it will be balanced with the domestic coal supply, and the government's decision will be focused on whether it can avoid a prolonged situation.
