This began to be echoed by Tribun Jateng after the FGD initiated by the government through Regional Leader Communication Forum on December 13, 2022. In the FGD, there was a proposal from the government to use discretion to legalize illegal mining . Some of the Regional Leader Communication Forum officials present were both for and against this proposal. However, Tribun Jateng made the opinion of the representative of Batang District Attorney, as the focus of their reporting. At that time, they also rejected the proposal for discretion because of the Mineral Law. After that, Tribun Jateng also followed up on the rejection of the proposal for discretion by Acting Regent of Batang and Head of Department of Enviroment of Batang Regency. So, currently, the proposal for discretion to legalize illegal mining in Batang is just an idea and still uses the previous regulations.
