PANGKALPINANG -- Tin is one of Indonesia's strategic natural resources. As a global tin producer, managing tin is not just an economic matter but also relates to national sovereignty, public welfare, and environmental sustainability.
PT Timah Tbk, a tin mining company that represents the state in managing tin resources, remains committed to sustainable and equitable tin management for the welfare of society and the nation's progress in line with the values of Pancasila.
In carrying out its integrated operations, PT Timah implements good and responsible mining practices, adheres to sustainable mining principles, conducts post-mining reclamation, environmental conservation, and protection of endemic flora and fauna.
As a member of the MIND ID Mining Industry Holding, the company also empowers local communities and supports economic growth in its operational areas. It promotes educational opportunities for the younger generation, improves public health, builds infrastructure access, and supports various social and cultural activities, including support for MSMEs. These initiatives reflect the second principle of Pancasila: social justice, through community empowerment programs.
PT Timah also places strong emphasis on occupational safety and employee welfare as a form of respect for the value of just and civilized humanity.
The company fosters harmonious collaboration with communities, local governments, and business partners as part of its effort to achieve sustainable mining operations that contribute optimally to the nation.
PT Timah continues to prioritize its contribution to state revenues through tax payments, royalties, and non-tax state revenues (PNBP), as a demonstration of its commitment to national interests.
The commemoration of Pancasila Day serves as a reminder that the management of strategic minerals like tin must be guided by morality, ethics, and shared interests, making natural resources a unifying force and a path toward shared prosperity, in accordance with Article 33 of the 1945 Constitution.
"The company strives to ensure that tin management not only brings economic benefits but also becomes a national strength to achieve public welfare," said PT Timah's Department Head of Corporate Communication, Anggi Siahaan.
Pancasila Day serves as a reflection that the nation’s noble values must continue to guide every step of development, including in the extractive industry sector. PT Timah is committed to upholding this responsibility for Indonesia’s future.
