PT Indonesia Asahan Aluminium (Inalum), a subsidiary of the state-owned mining holding company MIND ID, has appointed Ilhamsyah Mahendra as the new CEO, replacing Danny Praditya, who is under investigation for alleged corruption in a gas trading case at PT PGN.
The decision was made in a recent annual general meeting of shareholders (RUPST), which also named Ivan Emirsyam as the new Director of Operations, replacing Raynaldi Harahap. The updated management structure of PT Inalum is as follows:
