Yotam Parang
Sawmill Operator (ex. chainsaw operator)
“My family is from nearby village, Helaitator, and I used to work as farmer before I joined the company. I would cry everytime reminiscence back on that era like this. Life was very difficult! We planted cassava, cabbage, spinach and fishing for our daily consumption, earning more or less 2 million Rupiah every month. When the company came I was very grateful to be recruited as chainsaw operator, earning more than 20 million Rupiah even on a rainy month. Three years ago my health started to deteriorate so the boss replaced me with my younger helper, Huru Bangheli. But I was not dismissed, instead I was reassigned as a sawmill operator, learning the operation from our Javanese and Kalimantan’s colleagues. I feel an infinite gratitute for the company… May God bless this company, everlasting for ever and ever.”
Rustam Halimongo
Forest Surveyor
“I am a proud member of the Togutile tribe. My parents and some older cousin are still live in the forest. All my life I develop survival skill to live in the forest, unfortunately that was not regarded as productive skills in the villages. When the company came, it opened up the opportunity for me, I was immediately hired as forest surveyor, to scout the forest topography, to inventorize the forest, to label the trees. Now I can afford to let my wife and children live in the nearby village, shelter them with proper housing, sent my children to school. The company help me to create a better life. I have a Samsung smartphone now, 10 years ago I do not even know what is a refrigerator, what a miracle!”

“I am a long-time supporter of the company. I know personally pak Victor since the very first socialization, got his personal number here. I remember initially there were was lot of resistance from majority of the villages, they even did several public protests to barricade the road. I was one of the forefront mediator, I had personal chat with pak Victor and I acknowledged his sincerity for the community, his dream to create something big here. I believe in the company ever since and did a campaign to support them. I wish the company to stay true to its vision and to grow even larger for its contribution to the local society. God bless.”

I was a fresh graduate prior to joining the company so I might not be able to make comparision with other company, but I personally feel a very pleasant experience working at the company. When there were issues we work together to solve it, everyone was very supportive, it felt like a big family.”
