17 state enterprises suffered losses in 2010

Seventeen state-owned enterprises suffered losses in 2010, a legislator says.

The deputy chairman of House of Representatives' Commission XI overseeing finance and national development planning, Achsanul Qosasi, said the figure showed an improvement from previous years, but added that less would suffer losses by the end of 2011.

Achsanul was addressing a discussion on the politicization of state enterprises, on Thursday in Jakarta.

In 2006, he said, 36 state enterprises suffered from financial losses, and 24 suffered losses in 2009.

“Four or five [out of the 17] state enterprises, however, are beyond salvation. It would be better to shut them down, unless somehow the managements can be reformed.”

He added that among the loss-ridden enterprises were those whose businesses were in the manufacturing and service sectors.

Achsanul further added that overlapping businesses with other state enterprises and company executives’ salaries being too high despite their companies’ poor financial performance were among other causes of continuing losses.
