”In the future, this program (is expected) to provide wider benefits for the community, inspire more stakeholders and continue to receive sustained support and appreciation from the government,” Iwan said in a press release issued by YABN, Tuesday (September 29, 2026).

CSR & PDB Awards is an annual event held in collaboration between the Ministry of Villages and Disadvantaged Regions and the Indonesian Social Sustainability Forum (ISSF), as a form of appreciation for corporate contributions to sustainable village development.

Meanwhile, Sinar Permata is Adaro's flagship program developed and implemented under the supervision of Yayasan Amanah Bangun Negeri (YABN), the foundation overseeing CSR programs for both Adaro and the AlamTri Group.

It was launched in response to community waste management challanges, ranging from high waste volume have not been managed optimally to limited govenance and lack of adequate waste management facilities and infrastructure.

The Sinar Permata program also optimizes the waste bank building with a capacity of inorganic waste up to 21.79 tons, while encouraging organic waste management of 21.8 tons per year.

Organic waste is processed into eco-enzyme and compost to support horticulture farming, while used cooking oil is converted into products such as candles and soap.

The program includes applying eco-friendly technologies, through the use of solar panels and rainwater harvesting to support more efficient facility management.

It also encourages active community participation in preserving the environment while optimizing local potential to create sustainable social and economic benefits.
