The following is the list of the top 3 news on Tempo English today:
1. Entering Indonesia, Govt Asks Geely to Build Factory
TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Chinese automaker Geely has officially entered the Indonesian automotive market with the launch of the EX5 electric car. In Indonesia, Geely will assemble its car locally by cooperating with Handal Indonesia Motor as its manufacturing partner in the country.
However, Cahyo Purnomo, the Ministry of Investment / Investment Coordinating Board's (BKPM) director of promotion for the East Asia, South Asia, Middle East, and Africa region, hopes that Geely can build its own factory in Indonesia and no longer rely on Handal Indonesia Motor to assemble its cars.
2. Understanding the Difference Between Public and Private Colleges
TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Pursuing higher education isn't just about choosing the right program; it's also about choosing the college that will be your home for years to come. Both public and private colleges come with their unique benefits and challenges, so your role is limited to understanding their key differences and choosing the one that best aligns with your goals and aspirations.
In this article, we'll break down the differences between public and private colleges, as cited from Appily, Best Colleges, and Crimson Education.
3. Mining Permits for Indonesian Universities Draw Criticism
TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Ruang Setara Project founder Aulia Hakim criticized the DPR's decision to approve the Legislative Body's (Baleg) proposal on the revision of the Law on Minerals and Coal or Minerba Bill. The revised policy includes the granting of mining business permits (IUP) or mining permits for universities.
According to Aulia, the proposal to grant mining permits to universities is a step backwards in natural resource management. Moreover, the government has previously granted IUP to religious community organizations (ormas). Therefore, Aulia assessed that the DPR's move to make a new proposal for campuses to participate in managing mines indicates that political elites are unable to interpret and realize the mandate of the 1945 Constitution Article 33 paragraph 3 concerning the management of natural resources for the welfare of the people.
