Synopsis of report
Extractive Industries Revenue Transparency and Local Public Financial
Management in West Nusa Tenggara Province
Prepared by:
SOMASI – West Nusa Tenggara (Publish What You Pay Indonesia Coalition Member)
Background
West Nusa Tenggara (Nusa Tenggara Barat, NTB) is a province in Indonesia’s Nusa Tenggara
islands (also known as the Lesser Sundas) in which Newmont Nusa Tenggara (NNT), Indonesia’s
second largest gold and copper company is located. NTB has a population of 4.5 million whose
livelihoods are based mostly on agriculture, trade, services and home industries. Economic growth
in NTB in 2009 was 9.07% in the oil & gas sector and 14.89% in the non-oil & gas sector (Bureau
of Statistics, 2013). In the first quarter of 2010, economic growth in NTB was the second highest in
the national, after West Sulawesi province. The number of poor people in NTB has also decreased
year by year. In 2010, the poverty rate in NTB was 21.55% (1,009,351 people), it decreased in 2011
to 19.73% (894,770 people). The economy of NTB in 2009 developed rapidly in the sectors of
mining, industry, electricity sanitation, property, trade, hotels and restaurants, as well as the
financial and service sectors.
The last 1.5 decades have been an era of decentralization in Indonesia. The purpose of transferring
government affairs to the Local Government is intended to bring improved public services to
improve the welfare of the people. This is in line with expanded access to and utilization of state
revenue deriving from extractive industries (EI). Attempting to keep track of local EI revenues is an
initiative that encourages EI transparency, both on the government and on the company side, known
as Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI), which is regulated by Presidential
Regulation 26/2010. Since 2010, CSOs in Indonesia have increasingly strengthened themselves to
campaign in a more massive and widespread way on the importance of state and local revenues
from the extractive industries (oil, gas and mining) being managed in a transparent and accountable
manner for the greatest welfare of the people.
SOMASI NTB, as a part of Publish What You Pay Indonesia coalition, has developed a work
agenda for encouraging local extractive industry transparency implementation, as well as to
contextualize the findings of EITI Indonesia implementation for local audiences. We conducted
action research on the relationship between the findings of the EITI Indonesia report and local
public financial management and social economic development.
Objectives and Methods
This research aims to find out the extent to which development planning and budgeting in NTB are
addressing the availability of extractive industries revenues, corporate social responsibility funds,
dividends earned by local government as a result of shares that it holds in NNT, and other forms of
revenue collected from the extractive industries. This research also analyzes the impact of revenues
from the mining industries (if any) on development, social welfare, and governance, as measured by
social development indices such as the human development index, the illiteracy index, the poverty
rate, and other indicators.
The research collected information on the NTT Contract of Work as well as on locally-licensed
mines (IUPs) in two districts, Lombok Barat and Sumbawa Barat, on Lombok and Sumbawa
Islands, respectively. Information collected included, but was not limited to, payments to both
national and provincial/district governments by mines. This research also examines transfers to the
local government (province/district) from the revenue sharing (DBH) scheme.

2.
The main methods used in this research were: data collection through requesting of information
from relevant government agencies and companies, as well as secondary data collection. SOMASI
also held dialogues between CSOs, local government and companies, as well as communicating
EITI Indonesia’s findings in the wider context of development. We led multi-stakeholder
discussions. Our communications strategy included local television and other forms of media.
Results and Discussion
Extractive Industries Company Information
This research collected information on the NTT Contract of Work, and IUPs in two districts: West
Sumbawa and West Lombok.
1. PT. Newmont Nusa Tenggara (NNT)
NNT is affiliate of Newmont Mining Corporation, a leading gold and copper company listed on the
New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) as well as stock exchanges in Australia and Toronto. There
remains one subsidiary of Newmont in Indonesia, Newmont Nusa Tenggara (NNT) in West Nusa
Tenggara. NNT is a joint venture owned by Nusa Tenggara Partnership (Newmont and Sumitomo),
PT. Pukuafu Indah (Indonesia) and PT. Multi Daerah Bersaing (a nominally local government-
owned company which fronts for Indonesia’s notorious Bakrie family). Newmont and Sumitomo
act as operator. Table 1 below shows some general figures relating to NNT.
NNT signed the Contract of Work with the Indonesian Government in 1986, to conduct exploration
and exploitation in its Contract of Work area. NNT discovered porphyry copper deposits in 1990,
and this deposit was referred to as Batu Hijau. After discovery and technical and environmental
assessment over a period of six years were approved by the government, in 1996 the construction of
the Batu Hijau Mine Project commenced, with total investment of US$1.8 billion. Mine
development, plant and infrastructure were completed in 1999 and became fully operational in
March 2000. The Batu Hijau mine is located on the southwest of Sumbawa Island, in the district of
West Sumbawa.

2. IUPs in NTB and Clean and Clear Status
Local governments have authority to release mineral licenses in their province/regency areas,
known as IUP (Ijin Usaha Pertambangan). Starting from 2011, the Directorate General of Minerals
and Coal, in the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, launched a program for certifying these
local mining licenses called the Clean and Clear (CnC) program. CnC’s requirements are that IUP
may not overlap with other mining concessions, must pay state revenues, and must have proper
documents, including environment impact analyses, as well as exploration and feasibility studies
report for those with licenses to produce. Table 2 below shows the number of IUP in NTB and their
CnC status.

CSR by Extractive Companies

1. CSR figures related to PT. Newmont Nusa Tenggara in West Sumbawa
The basic principle of CSR and/or community development, according to NNT, are sustainability,
partnership (with government, NGOs, communities and local organizations), developing
appropriate technology, as well as contribution from private sectors and public. Chart 1 presents the
community development expenditures of NNT.
Chart 1. Community Development Expenditure of PT. NNT
The CSR program of NNT is concentrated on human resources development and the utilization of
basic natural resources, which is in line with sustainable development planning. It is achieved
through four main pillars: improved health, education, economy as well as infrastructure
development.
Table 3, below, shows the composition of CSR funds that are allocated in West Sumbawa, the
district in which NNT’s operations are located.

The implementation of CSR programs depends on the dynamics of relationships between the
government, local communities and the company itself. In an interview, Abdul Muis, of the
Development Plan Body (Bappeda) of West Sumbawa district, said that “to some extent, CSR still
is in the interest of the company, and not of all of the people.” In other word, there is limited
ownership in company-led CSR by the citizens.

5.
Popular demonstrations for more CSR funds, to some extent, result mostly in CSR funds from the
company being captured by political elites. Prayogo (2008, 64) points out that CSR programs only
slightly relieve or mitigate the anger of citizens, and do not solve the problems of poverty,
inequality or injustice.
2. CSR Figures related to PT. Indotan Lombok Barat Bangkit in West Lombok
PT. Indotan Lombok Barat Bangkit is a gold company that gets IUP from local government in 2011
with area of concessions: 10,088 hectares, located in 3 villages (Kedora, Buwun Mas and
Pelangon) in Sekotong Sub-District, West Lombok District. Directorate General of Minerals and
Coal data from February 2013 shows that the mine is authorized only to explore, and not to
produce. Table 4 below shows the details of what PT. Indotan regards as its CSR program.

Revenue Sharing (DBH) and Production Figure
Non-tax revenues (both land rent and/or royalties) are paid by mining companies to the national
government are then re-distributed back to the local governments in the jurisdiction in which each
company is physically located, both to the provincial government and to district governments,
according to pre-set formulas. Table 5, below, shows the flow of land rent and royalty revenue
sharing to NTB provincial government, and all district governments within the province.

After non-tax revenues are paid to the central government, they are then redistributed back to the
local governments in and around the jurisdiction in which the mines are located. Table 7 below,
shows the amounts in which land rent and royalties paid by mines located in NTB province are
distributed back to the district government of West Lombok.

In the three years covered by the Table 8 (above), the highest local revenue was achieved in 2011.
Revenues were so high in this year due to significant inflows of two categories of revenue,
“separated wealth management” and “other original local revenue.” Of interest to this report, the
category of “separated wealth management’ refers to profits and dividends deriving from the district
government’s part ownership of PT. Newmont Nusa Tenggara via the Bakrie family-controlled
company Multi Daerah Bersaing (MDB). In 2012, receipts from this category fell markedly.
Table 9, shows the official figures for revenue inflows (and their sources) which came to comprise
the category of “Separated Wealth Management.” Note the error in the total figure for 2010
column, which is then passed through to Table 8 (above).

Social Economic Indicators
The research looks at the number of poor, the poverty rate, and the Human Development Index for
the districts of West Sumbawa and West Lombok.
Chart 2 below shows the absolute number of persons living below the poverty line in each district
in NTB. West Sumbawa (the location of the Newmont mine) has among the fewest poor people in
the province, whilst the number of poor in West Lombok has fallen more sharply than any other
district in the province.
Chart 2: Number of poor people in NTB (Thousands)
Chart 3 below shows the percentage of persons living below the poverty line in each district in
NTB. The poverty rates in West Sumbawa and West Lombok, like those in many districts, hover
around twenty percent.

Conclusions and Recommendations
Conclusions
- The number of revenue sharing (DBH) from extractive industries is in line with the non-tax
revenues paid by producers (from which DBH is derived).
- The number of revenue sharing to the local government was in line with the amounts of local
government allocated for public services delivery and poverty alleviation
- Transparency of information on CSR programs is important for the communities who live in the
vicinity of mining areas, in order to help make sure they are the actual beneficiaries of such
programs.
Recommendations
- There is a need for monitoring the performance of production, revenue payments and revenue
allocations to ensure the correct redistribution of revenue to the people.
- There is a need for multi-stakeholder dialogs, to decrease the asymmetry of information and
discuss suitable ways to improve extractive industries’ governance.
- There is a need for progress in local revenue management, in order to maximize the benefit to
increase the quality of human resources for sustainable development.
