Significant Indirect Economic Impact [203-2]

Throughout 2020, PTBA carried out several activities with significant indirect economic impact and support progress of the society. The activities are among others: [103-3, 203-2, 413-1, 413-2] [6.c.3)c)]

1. SIBA Center as SME Central Incubator

The construction of the SIBA Center can be said to be a follow-up to the Bukit Asam Industrial Center (SIBA) program which up to now consists of several business fields including Manufacturing, Culinary Services, Bokhasi, Batik, Songket, Knitting, Coffee, Rosella Products, Nurseries, Printing and others. The construction of the SIBA Center is a form of company concern for MSMEs and the SIBA business groups.

The development of SIBA Center aims to increase development and empowerment programs for communities around the company’s area and to become a business incubator center that can carry out business development functions and new product development for local society around the company. In the future, SIBA Center is expected to become one of the destinations for entrepreneurship learning as well as tourism that can increase the economic value of Tanjung Enim society.

2. Bukit Asam Rosella Industrial Center

This program is the woman empowerment through the establishment of the SIBA Rosella socio-economic institution which optimizes the cultivation of rosella plants and the production of various processed derivatives into healthy products. The superior products of SIBA Rosella are Rosella Tea and Syrup which have high Vitamin C content and are good for boost immunity.

The main subjects of this program are 30 (thirty) women from the Kelurahan Pasar Tanjung Enim, Lingga, and Keban Agung. SIBA Rosella has a production and product development center for their business in SIBA Center, Lingga, Muara Enim. Part of the land in the SIBA Center, covering an area of 2.000m2 , is also used as a demonstration plot (demplot) for 3.000 roselle plants.

In addition to covering the empowerment aspect, this program is also expected to contribute to the prevention of the spread of COVID-19, because processed products derived from rosella are expected to be a healthy food and beverage choice for people in the pandemic era, so that they will provide added economic value to subjects of the program.

The achievement of the Social Return on Investment ratio value from this program is 1: 4.22. This ratio means that every IDR1 invested in the SIBA Rosella CSR program will generate a social impact of IDR4.22 The SROI ratio is fairly large because the SIBA Rosella program is a social and environmental program that begins with the number of wild rosella plants that have not been utilized properly until they eventually become various derivative products that produce many health benefits.

3. Distribution of Food Packages

Some of the programs carried out by the Company include routine distribution of basic food packages in the PTBA Ring I Area (Lawang Kidul, Tanjung Agung, Muara Enim, East Merapi and West Merapi Districts).
