The Core of the Dispute: Satkomhan Project
The dispute originates from the procurement of satellite components for the Ministry of Defense in 2016. “Di dalam persidangan dispute mengenai masalah pengadaan bagian-bagian dari satelit Kementerian Pertahanan pada tahun 2016, oleh Arbitrasi Singapura kita dikalahkan dan kita harus membayar sejumlah utang atau ganti rugi kepada pihak Navayo,” saeid Yusril, highlighting the arbitration loss in Singapore.
The situation escalated when Navayo sought to enforce the arbitration ruling in France. “Dan sekian lama masalah ini dirundingkan berlarut-larut, sampai akhirnya Navayo mengajukan permohonan kepada Pengadilan Prancis untuk mengeksekusi putusan dari Arbitrasi Singapura dan meminta untuk dilakukan penyitaan terhadap beberapa aset pemerintahan Republik Indonesia yang ada di Prancis,” Yusril added.
