In a statement received in Jakarta on Tuesday, Tetty said that this restructuring was an important initial step to strengthen governance and guide Garuda towards a medium-term recovery phase.
According to him, the workload of the new board of directors is very heavy because Garuda is still experiencing significant financial performance pressure.
In the first semester of 2025, he revealed, the company posted a net loss of Rp2.33 trillion, influenced by rising aviation fuel costs and a 4.47 percent annual decline in revenue to US$1.54 billion.
"This situation demands strong leadership, courageous decision-making, and the ability to implement structural changes. The new board of directors must ensure efficiency and improve the company's operational foundations," he said.
Tetty also highlighted a Garuda report stating that by November 2025, only 58 of the 78 aircraft in operation would be in serviceable condition . Meanwhile, Citilink is targeting 36 serviceable aircraft in the reactivation phase.
