Community Development and Empowerment Program (PPM) [203-2] [POJK51 F.23, F.25]
The Community Development and Empowerment Program (PPM) aims to improve the community’s ability, both individually and collectively, in order to have a better standard of living. The PPM Program Implementation is based on 3 (three) approaches:
The ESDM Guidelines stipulate eight main aspects that must be managed in the PPM Master Plan. These aspects are similar to the Company’s community development and engagement programs. In accordance with the PPM implementation guidelines, the costs of community development and engagement programs under the PPM Master Plan are categorized as the Company's operational costs and included in the annual Work Plan and Budget (RKAB). The costs are covered in a project feasibility study approved by ESDM. This requirement supports better transparency and accountability in the delivery of community development programs by mining companies.
