Thomas T Lembong
Thomas T Lembong is a former Indonesian Minister of Trade, known for his involvement in various economic policies aimed at stabilizing commodity prices in the country. He was sentenced to 4.5 years in prison by the Corruption Court in July 2025 due to a controversial sugar import policy implemented in 2015, which was deemed to have violated administrative procedures and caused state losses, despite the court acknowledging that he acted without personal motives or benefits. Following public outcry and political negotiations, he was granted a presidential amnesty just weeks later, sparking discussions about the implications of this case on public policy and the legal accountability of government officials.
