Indonesia halts works at Special Economic Zone with Trump golf course


JAKARTA (Bloomberg): The Indonesian government has halted construction works in a special economic zone that hosts a Donald Trump-branded luxury golf course due to environmental violations.

All construction activities in the Lido SEZ in West Java province have been put on hold and sealed by the Environment Ministry after it found indications of improperly managed rainwater runoff in the area by developer PT MNC Land, according to a statement on Thursday. It has resulted in "sedimentation and shallowing,” the statement said.
