TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Deputy Minister of Agriculture Sudaryono emphasized that PT Danantara Sumberdaya Indonesia (DSI) will not profit from the implementation of single-door palm oil or crude palm oil (CPO) export scheme. "I reiterate that there will be no profit," Sudaryono said, as quoted by Antara on Friday, May 29, 2026.Sudaryono stated that the government's policy regulating the export of coal, palm oil, and ferroalloys will be integrated through PT DSI. The government has coordinated with various parties, including Danantara, to ensure transparent and accountable export management.He mentioned that PT DSI will act as a supervising company in the governance of national strategic commodity exports to ensure a more orderly trading mechanism. Sudaryono hopes that downstream palm industry players, particularly refineries and active exporters, will no longer have concerns about export trading.Sudaryono explained that the government has set a three-month transition period, starting from June 1 to August 31, 2026, before the PT DSI export management policy is fully implemented. During this transition period, the government will establish various regulatory stages to gradually transfer the palm company's export management through PT DSI-managed mechanisms.The government's goal is for PT DSI to fully manage the export of palm, coal, and iron commodities by January 1, 2027. DSI will initially operate under an agent business model before developing other functions according to its human resource capacity.DSI will be implemented in two stages. In the first stage, from June 1 to December 31, 2026, DSI will act as an appraiser and intermediary between sellers and buyers of certain export commodities.Entering the second stage, targeted to begin in January 2027, DSI purchases commodities from domestic exporters and sells them on the international market.Read: Indonesia's Palm Oil Firms Await New Export Regulation DetailsClick here to get the latest news updates from Tempo on Google News
