Benefit-sharing mechanisms do not emerge in a vacuum. They are shaped by the national policy frameworks that set the standards, incentives, and accountability structures that govern how mining revenues and social obligations are distributed.
In Indonesia, instruments such as the Community Development Fund (PPM), corporate social responsibility obligations, local content regulations, and downstream processing policies all reflect deliberate national choices about who benefits from extraction. Yet coordination gaps between levels of government, weak accountability mechanisms, and policy frameworks that have yet to fully integrate community participation remain persistent challenges.
The direction of national policy matters enormously. When the central government sets strong, coherent standards, local governments and communities are better positioned to claim their share. When it does not, the gap between policy intent and lived reality widens.
What should Indonesia’s national policy framework look like if it is serious about fair and sustainable benefit sharing? And what role does the central government play in closing the distance between what is planned and what communities actually receive?
Togu Pardede, Director of Energy, Mineral, and Mining Resources at the Ministry of National Development Planning (Bappenas), brings these questions to PPF 2026 from the center of national policy design.
