JAKARTA - PT Freeport Indonesia, a unit of Freeport-McMoran Copper & Gold Inc, said a South Jakarta building in which it rents an office space has been attacked by a group of vandals. 'We don't own the building, we are only a tenant. No damage was done to our offices,' spokesman Budiman Moerdijat said. He would not give details of the attack on Plaza 89 building in Kuningan.
Online news provider Detik reported that the attack occurred at about 4.00 am local time. The attackers broke the building's windows and damaged its security post, the report said. The incident comes a day after Freeport suspended its copper and gold mine operation in Papua as alleged illegal miners blocked a road leading to the mine.
Moerdijat said Freeport's operation remains suspended. 'As of Thursday morning, there is no significant change in the status,' he said. He said the government is working to resolve the problem 'peacefully and quickly.' Agence France-Presse reported yesterday that about 400 alleged illegal miners were on the site to protest their attempted eviction by Freeport.
