Minister of Industry, Agus Gumiwang Kartasasmita, previously said that he wanted to know the contents of the containers to protect the domestic industry.
"Over 26 thousand is a big number. If it is only 100–200 containers, we will not bother, but if it is 26 thousand containers, we have to mitigate any potential risks," he added.
He stated that understanding the containers' contents is crucial because if they are raw materials, domestic industries could be impacted.
Minister said that his ministry has sent a letter to the Ministry of Finance, seeking an explanation about the contents of the containers at the two ports, and currently waiting for the response.
