00:00The situation of coal demand decline globally, especially in East Asia, which is beginning to reduce the dependence of coal energy,
00:12makes PT Bukit Asam TBK plan to continue to expand the market in the Southeast Asia region.
00:22PT Bukit Asam TBK has prepared a strategy to end China's reduction of coal consumption.
00:28The country only agreed to ten coal-fired power plants in the first half of 2024,
00:35which shows an effort to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels.
00:39In response to the situation, SVV Project Management Office PT BA Setiadi Wicaksono said
00:45that the potential for coal exports to other countries remains open.
00:49Setiadi noted that the export market to other developing countries such as South Asia still has a fairly high demand.
00:56Moreover, in the second quarter of this year, the export to India managed to increase 37% to 3 million tons.
01:03In addition, exports to Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam also increased significantly.
01:26India, Baladesh, Pakistan are also an interesting market in the future, because the demand is still quite high.
01:32On the other hand, we in Bukit Asam are also preparing several development projects
01:36that can later secure the use of coal in the domestic market.
01:44In addition to the focus on export demand, PT BA also estimates that domestic demand and developing countries
01:49are still quite positive in the next five years.
01:52Until the end of the first semester of this year, PT BA's net worth was recorded at 2.03 trillion rupiah,
01:59or down 26.7% in a year.
