Thermal Coal Hub
Danantara CEO Rosan Roeslaini said that PT Danantara Sumberdaya Indonesia (PT DSI), a unit under Indonesia's sovereign wealth fund Danantara Indonesia, is currently prioritizing export supervision of three main and strategic commodities: coal, crude palm oil, and ferroalloy. However, the scope of these commodities will be expanded to ensure that export transactions can be monitored more optimally. In addition to expanding commodities, DSI will also expand its scope of supervision to all ports in Indonesia.
