10.3 Percent of the Ministry of Forestry's BMN was seriously damaged or ceased to function

JAKARTA, GARISBUMI.com – As many as 10.3 percent of the Ministry of Forestry's State Property (BMN) was recorded as seriously damaged and/or out of use. SIMAN data for Semester I 2026 also recorded that the value of the ministry's fixed assets reached IDR 13.998 trillion.

Secretary General of the Ministry of Forestry Mahfudz asked each work unit to validate data, ensure legality, secure assets and optimize their use.

"This condition is a concern for strengthening data validation, securing assets, ensuring legality, and optimizing the use of BMN," said Mahfudz at the National Coordination Meeting in Manggala Wanabakti, Jakarta, Thursday (22/10/2026).

Work units are asked to identify obstacles, complete documents, assign responsible persons, and speed up completion in a measurable manner.

The Ministry of Forestry also launched RIMBA ASSET, a dashboard to support the optimization of assets that have not been utilized optimally. The development is planned to include asset identification and validation, establishment of utilization schemes, and digital monitoring.

Mahfudz emphasized that asset management and procurement must be integrated so that spending supports the performance of the forestry sector.
