Leaked records show Indonesian nickel miner Harita paid politicians, military

Leaked records indicate Harita Group, a major Indonesian nickel miner, approved payments for community leaders, flights for politicians, and financial support for military projects from 2013 to 2023. The payments, described as 'incentives,' may constitute bribery or political influence, though the legal status and intent remain unclear. This raises governance and corruption concerns in Indonesia's critical minerals sector, potentially affecting investor confidence and regulatory scrutiny.
