In addition to strengthening post-integration synergies, this visit also saw reclamation and revegetation activities in the post-mining area of SMBR which was utilized as a habitat for Trigona bee colony cultivation.

The Main Director of SMBR Daconi Khotob in his remarks said, the joining of SMBR to SIG, is expected to improve operational performance to achieve company goals effectively and efficiently and provide quality products and good service not only for SMBR but also SIG as the holding.

“Not only that, the composition of SMBR’s employees is mostly filled with millennials, which reaches 87 percent, meaning they are ready to be invited to run for the progress of the company and the holding,” said Daconi.

Meanwhile, the Main Director of SIG, Donny Arsal expressed his gratitude for the welcome given by SMBR colleagues. As Holding, SIG really appreciates this activity. The challenges in 2023 will not be lighter. Therefore, the synergy between SIG and SMBR is expected to generate new advantages, better market coverage, and more efficient production costs which will ultimately improve the company’s performance.
“This integration is a government program to unite cement BUMN clusters into one group to face competitive market conditions. Through this synergy, it is expected to provide benefits to all stakeholders, including employees,” said Donny Arsal.

At the event, the management of SIG and SMBR also planted New Crystal longan tree seeds (Dimocarpus longan) as an effort to protect the environment and reduce carbon emissions. Then proceed with visiting the SMBR mining area where reclamation and revegetation activities have been carried out using a silvicultural system, which is an innovation from the SMBR Beeyond Team in managing ecosystems in the post-mining land area as a habitat for Trigona bee colonies.

The green area resulting from the reclamation program grows many types of plants. The 30.14 hectare land in the post-mining area is a habitat for fruit trees, flowering ornamental plants, and plants with medium to tall trees. This type of ornamental plant which contains a lot of nectar and pollen is what bee colonies like very much, so the idea of using this plant as a habitat for Trigona beekeeping emerged.

Trigona bees or often referred to as kelulut bees, clancing, klenceng, or bells are one of the largest stingless bee genera. Trigona is a type of honey bee that is mostly kept traditionally by rural communities around forest areas.

Currently, SMBR’s Trigona beekeeping is 45 bee colony boxes and Alhamdulillah, Trigona honey production has reached 10-12 liters per 2-3 month period of harvest.
SMBR plans to empower experienced local beekeepers in the Baturaja area to develop this innovation. So that it is expected to be able to educate other communities to participate in beekeeping independently, and can become one of the activities that support the company’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).

Sebagai bagian dari BUMN, PT Semen Baturaja Tbk (SMBR) yang merupakan anak usaha PT Semen Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (SIG) turut mendukung pelaksanaan Jalan Sehat Bersama BUMN di Kota Bandar Lampung yang melibatkan 2.000 peserta yang berasal dari masyarakat umum, karyawan, serta keluarga besar BUMN yang berada di Bandar Lampung dan sekitarnya.

Jalan Sehat Bersama BUMN ini merupakan hasil kolaborasi antara SMBR dengan PT Jasa Marga (Persero) Tbk dan Perum Jasa Tirta II.

Direktur SMBR (Fungsi Keuangan dan SDM), Tubagus Muhammad Dharury mengatakan menjadi bagian dari kegiatan Jalan Sehat Bersama BUMN 2023 merupakan suatu kebanggaan dan kehormatan bagi Semen Baturaja. Melalui kegiatan ini, Semen Baturaja sebagai bagian dari aset bangsa di bawah arahan SIG dan koordinasi Kementerian BUMN, berkesempatan untuk kian dekat dan mempererat hubungan dengan seluruh lapisan masyarakat.

“Jalan Sehat Bersama BUMN merupakan kesempatan bagi kami untuk memperkuat kolaborasi bersama masyarakat, sebagai bekal melanjutkan transformasi melalui pengembangan inovasi produk dan layanan.

Selain jalan sehat, acara juga turut dimeriahkan dengan hiburan musik dari artis setempat, senam zumba dan bazar UMKM. Sebanyak 19 UMKM yang merupakan mitra binaan SMBR dan UMKM Lokal di Kota Bandar Lampung juga ikut serta mempromosikan produk–produk unggulannya.

Direktur SMBR, Tubagus Muhammad Dharury menambahkan kegiatan Jalan Sehat Bersama BUMN ini bukan sekedar ajang olahraga saja, namun diharapkan dapat menumbuhkan core values AKHLAK BUMN ke seluruh masyarakat luas.

Antusiasme peserta jalan sehat sudah terlihat sejak pagi. Ribuan peserta di Kota Bandar Lampung berbondong–bondong mengikuti acara yang juga membagikan sejumlah door prize mulai dari kompor, lemari es, mesin cuci, smart tv, dan hadiah utama berupa sepeda motor serta hadiah menarik lainnya bagi para peserta yang beruntung.

Wakil Gubernur Lampung Chusnunia Chalim menyampaikan apresiasinya terhadap program yang diharapkan dapat meningkatkan silaturahmi, membangun kebersamaan dan membentuk kebiasaan masyarakat untuk berolahraga. “Selamat Ulang Tahun Kementerian BUMN yang ke 25 Tahun, ini bukan perjalanan yang singkat, kita telah merasakan manfaat nyata kebaradaan BUMN khususnya di Lampung, mari terus bersinergi untuk menuju Lampung berjaya,” imbuhnya.
