affected resource curse because the debate is still going on until now. Most people would agree that
Indonesia suffered accusations of resource curse and partly ooptimis that Indonesia can still be said
to be of "Dutch disease". Indeed, as a country rich in natural resources are considered once that
massive operations directly occur continuously without giving any meaningful development. Opinion
who wakes up and support this set of scenery that can be seen clearly from a particular region of the
country. Papua, for example, with a great wealth will be mine precious stones would have a local
development level is much lower than other areas. The gap between the area questioned the
contribution of the extractive sector (raw materials / raw) which are constantly being made.
The focus of Indonesia that has been exporting the quantity of raw materials sector is often
considered as being inhibit the progress of industry and underdeveloped.
government is now beginning to be wary of the high proportion of exports of raw materials. One of
them is reflected in the publication of the Law on Mineral and Coal Mining (Mining Law) that protect
the goods from the mining and minerals sector in order to increase the value added of the country.
Mining companies are required to process the mines in the country as well ban the export of raw
materials (raw materials). The goal is to increase revenues, create jobs and improve the welfare of
society. This law is supported by the publication of the Regulation of the Minister of Energy and
Mineral Resources No. 7 of 2012 on Added Value Through Mineral Processing and Refining Activities

called as the Dutch disease. January Priewe in class presentation in Berlin said the case of Indonesia
that growth tends to be slow, there are special conditions for the issuing of negra who develop
resource curse. Boediono said that this is because of the manufacturing industry in Indonesia is still a
sector that accounts for the largest share in the gross domestic product (GDP) in Indonesia. This
proves that industrialization in Indonesia is still ongoing. In Indonesia in 2004-2009 GDP data shows
that the growth of income per sector of the extractive sector (raw material) is much lower compared
to other sectors.
To resolve the allegations and indications given in Indonesia, the government became very
central role in managing the economic order of the country. Natural wealth and poverty gap and the
contrast is very poor, creating a portrait of the country in the eyes of the world. The issuance of the
Mining Law is one of the first steps in dealing with the export of excess raw materials. With the goal
of increasing value added, it is expected that the government is able to obtain higher revenues and
utilize appropriately. It is certainly also need supervision involving all stakeholders including the
community as agents of democracy. Because ignorance is the initial form of the destruction of this
nation.
