Promoting Local Development in Indonesia

Our local development projects in Indonesia are designed to build a resilient ecosystem by improving access to essential services and creating opportunities for sustainable development. Across seven villages within East Kalimantan's Samboja and Muara Jawa Districts, we deliver targeted solutions for clean water access, better quality of education, environmental protection, and capacity of main livelihoods – including the Joglo Tani Kolong Langit (JTKL) agricultural program. In West Sulawesi, health promotion activities in the fishing communities of Pamboang further contribute to improving community wellbeing. We ensure our commitments to improve community’s quality of life, with the aim of creating the long-term value.

The offshore fields of Jangkrik and Merakes in the country are important for natural gas supplies due to their strategic location. With our activities in this area, we help to ensure a fair and equitable transition that combines new energy sources with environmental protection and local development initiatives to support the population, with the aim of creating long-term value.

Project actions and objectives

Health promotion

Our community health programs across Samboja, Muara Jawa and Pamboang districs aim to strengthen primary healthcare services while promoting prevention and healthy lifestyles. In local schools, we support student health through awareness campaigns, first aid training for teachers, and improvements to school facilities infrastructures such as toilets, canteens and school health units. We also reinforce local health centers by providing training for healthcare workers, upgrading facilities and supplying essential medical equipment. In line with national health priorities, our initiatives support maternal and child health, nutrition programs and comprehensive monitoring assistance for pregnant women.

Drinking water, a priority

To address the critical pillar of clean water, we ensured reliable access to safe drinking water across seven villages in Samboja and Muara Jawa. In 2025, three new water wells were completed—two in Handil Baru Darat Village (Samboja) and one in Muara Jawa Tengah Village (Muara Jawa)—contributing to healthier living conditions and reducing water-related health risks. Such contribution proves our commitment for community’s long-term health, ensuring equal access to all.

Environment and biodiversity protection

The aim to contribute for the environment drives our tangible ecological and behavioral programs in Samboja and Muara Jawa Districts. In Samboja, we actively conduct fruit tree planting activities, while simultaneously fostering a culture of environmental cleanliness through community-driven coaching. In Muara Jawa, our strategy focuses on infrastructure and youth education—spearheading the improvement of a 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) waste processing facility, while launching the interactive environmental campaigns for elementary school students.

 

 

Agricultural training and development

Joglo Tani Kolong Langit (JTKL) is developed to become center of excellence for local farmers to share best practices and knowledge in integrated farming production. Having agriculture as one of main livelihoods in the area, JTKL provides local farmers with a dedicated space and opportunity to collaborate, exchange agricultural techniques, and optimize production, ultimately driving economic growth and securing daily needs.

The importance of proper waste management

The “Clean, Green, and Healthy Samboja” is a collaborative project between local government and Eni, a pilot project to cultivate community-wide wellness, through neighborhood hygiene competition and circular waste management. The project fosters community’s environmental literacy and awareness, also setting a benchmark for surrounding neighborhood.
