Halmahera Utara (Halut) or North Halmahera in North Maluku is the home to Gosowong gold mine, one of the largest gold mines in Indonesia, which was controlled by ASX-listed Newcrest Mining Ltd (later sold to Indonesian business people) and IDX-listed Aneka Tambang (ANTM) through PT Nusa Halmahera Minerals (NHM). Halmahera Utara will elect new regent and vice regent this year because the incumbent Regent Frans Manery has served for two periods and he can’t run again.To subscribe please click here
