Harita Nickel, through its two subsidiaries, PT Trimegah Bangun Persada Tbk and PT Gane Permai Sentosa, successfully achieved the Company Performance Rating Assessment Program (Proper) award for the period 2023-2024 with a Blue predicate from the Ministry of Environment of the Republic of Indonesia. This award recognized the company's commitment in implementing sustainable environmental management.
The award was presented at the Proper 2024 Environmental Award held at Sasono Langen Budoyo, Taman Mini Indonesia Indah, Jakarta, on Monday (24/2/2025).&nbsp;
Harita Nickel's Health and Safety Environment Director, Tonny Gultom, said Harita Nickel as an integrated nickel mining and processing technology company, always prioritizes sustainable principles in all aspects of its operations on Obi Island, South Halmahera, North Maluku. This commitment aims to provide added value for the company and sustainability for the surrounding environment.

Tonny mentioned a number of Harita Nickel's achievements in environmental management, including its successful post-mining reclamation program covering ± 231.53 hectares by 2024. Some of the former mining land, he added, is currently covered with plants and inhabited by various types of endemic animals from North Maluku.&nbsp;
Based on the results of biodiversity monitoring conducted by an independent third party, it was found that the flora and fauna ecosystem in the operational area of Harita Nickel remains well-preserved. From the 2024 monitoring results, a total of 10 plant species were recorded as being used in the reclamation area, and 8 plant species were identified in the Obi Industrial Area, consisting of secondary forests and shrubs, including Red Jabon, Kayu Putih, Bintangur, and Mahogany.
Meanwhile, for wildlife species classified within the taxa of mammals, bird populations, herpetofauna, and insects show a stable trend. This includes several endemic species unique to the Maluku Islands, such as the Green Dobson (Dobsonia viridis) and the Halmahera Cicadabird (Lalage aurea).
Under the insect category, the study recorded 28 dragonfly species from 8 families and 46 butterfly species from 4 families. The presence of dragonflies and butterflies indicates that the quality of the environment is maintained.
"We have also succeeded in revitalizing the nursery this year, by increasing the capacity of our land area for nurseries equipped with modern facilities,” he added. The nursery facility, named Loji Central Nursery, has an area of ± 2.8 hectares and a capacity of ± 400,000 seedlings. This increase in nursery capacity is expected to meet the growing demand for seedlings to support the post-mining reclamation program.

Meanwhile, Head of Mining Engineering of PT Gane Permai Sentosa, Ngainur Rofiek, said that this year's Blue Proper award from the Ministry of Environment is the second time for the company after previously receiving the same predicate for the 2021-2022 period. According to him, the success in maintaining this achievement shows the company's consistency in implementing Good Mining Practices, including technical aspects, work safety and environmental management.&nbsp;
“Of course we will not stop here. This achievement is a motivation for us to further improve the company's performance. In the future, it is not limited to fulfilling regulations, but also making sustainable innovations,” he concluded.&nbsp;
Proper 2024 was participated by 4,495 companies from various sectors. As a result of the performance evaluation, the level of company compliance during the 2023-2024 period amounted to 2,961 compliant companies, 1,329 non-compliant companies, and 205 companies not yet operating. In the non-compliant group, there are 16 companies with black status –the lowest level for companies that are considered to have committed environmental damage. Whereas in Proper 2023 there were no black status companies, then this became a special concern for the government to make Proper mandatory starting in 2025.&nbsp;
Responsible environmental management practices and followed by sustainable innovations in every aspect of its operations, are a tangible manifestation of Harita Nickel's commitment as a downstream mandate holder in order to provide added value for the environment, society and the nation.

Demonstrating a commitment to climate change awareness and carbon footprint reduction, Harita Nickel participated in the global Earth Hour initiative by simultaneously turning off lights and electrical devices for one hour in Ternate City and Obi Island Site on March 22.
In Ternate City, Harita Nickel held an Earth Hour event in the courtyard of the Ternate Mayor's Office. The company collaborated with a number of parties, including KATAM (Mining Advocacy Consortium) North Maluku, Obi Student Association Movement, and was fully supported by the Ternate City Government.&nbsp;
<img alt="Earth hour msp 2" src="https://api.tbpnickel.com/storage/images/old/images/Earth Hour MSP_2.jpg" title="Earth hour msp 2">
<figcaption>Harita employees in the Megah Surya Pertiwi business unit held an Earth Hour event by turning off lights and electrical devices, and replacing them with torches and candles.</figcaption>

 
Earth Hour, which was originally planned to take place at the Ternate Landmark, had to be moved to the Mayor's Office yard due to heavy rain. Nevertheless, attendees' enthusiasm remained high, with the atmosphere getting more solemn when candles were lit to replace the lights.

The Mayor of Ternate, M. Tauhid Soleman, who was present in person said that Earth Hour is not just an action to turn off the lights, but also a symbol of concern for the future of our earth. “This movement is not just about turning off the lights for one hour, but a sign of our concern for the environment and the sustainability of life for future generations,” he said.

Furthermore, he said that Ternate has a big responsibility in maintaining the balance between modernization and nature preservation. The action of turning off the lights, he added, is a reflection of local wisdom that has been passed down from generation to generation, such as the Ela-Ela Night tradition that is carried out to ask for safety for the community.

On this occasion, Tauhid also appreciated Harita Nickel's initiative to support an environmental awareness movement. Previously, Harita Nickel had given one unit of garbage truck to the Ternate City Government, as part of its contribution to cleanliness and environmental management.
“On behalf of the government and local people of Ternate, we would like to thank Harita Nickel for their dedication and support. May this act of kindness not stop here, but continue for the sustainability of our environment,” he said.

Meanwhile, Harita Nickel through its business units also held Earth Hour with a one-hour power outage. Harita employees at Megah Surya Pertiwi (MSP) turned off the lights and electrical devices in the office area. While in Halmahera Persada Lygend (HPL), power outages were carried out in the Living Quarter and Jetty Persada 4 areas at 21.00-20.00 Indonesian Eastern Time.

<figcaption>Harita personnel at the Ternate Representative Office also took part in an Earth Hour action at the Ternate Mayor's Office</figcaption>
 
Director of Health & Safety Environment Harita Nickel, Tonny Gultom, said Harita Nickel's involvement in the Earth Hour movement as a reflection of the company's commitment to tackling global warming and reducing carbon footprint. According to him, the spirit of energy saving is not only done at this moment, but has become the culture of Harita employees in everyday life.&nbsp;

“The spirit of Earth Hour does not stop only in the action of turning off the electricity for one hour, but also continues with energy saving actions carried out at all times,” he said, inviting all Harita employees to save electricity, and also other energy sources such as water, wisely.&nbsp;

On a larger scale, Harita Nickel's commitment to support the reduction of carbon emissions has been proven through a mangrove rehabilitation program with a total area of 23.04 hectares and 67,691 seedlings that have been planted. In addition, the company is currently in the process of building a solar power plant (PLTS) with a capacity of 300 Megawatt peak (MWp) in the integrated nickel processing area of Obi Island, South Halmahera.These steps reflect the company's ongoing dedication to fostering a more sustainable future.

Topan Prasetyo, Executive Business Control at Harita Nickel, highlighted the significance of this initiative, stating:

“Harita Nickel is not just a workplace, it is a home for all of us. This sense of togetherness makes us stronger, both in overcoming challenges and in achieving our shared goals,” said Topan.

Through Safari Ramadan 2025, Harita Nickel reaffirms its commitment to fostering a positive work environment, enhancing internal collaboration, and supporting employee well-being, ensuring that Ramadan remains a time of connection and shared purpose within the organization.

He also highlighted Harita Nickel's key strategic achievements throughout 2024, including the successful completion of PT Obi Nickel Cobalt (ONC) construction, which is now fully operational with an annual production capacity of 65,000 tons of nickel. Additionally, the company’s recognition in the Fortune 100 Indonesia and Fortune 500 Southeast Asia rankings underscores its continued growth despite global economic uncertainties.

“The nickel industry is evolving rapidly, and we must maintain our competitiveness and operational sustainability while continuously innovating to remain a leading player in this sector. The diversity of our business units is our strength, and we must continue to strengthen synergy across all divisions,” he added.

Echoing the same sentiment, Dindin Makinudin, General Manager of CSR at Harita Nickel, emphasized the importance of fostering a strong sense of togetherness within the company.

“The spirit of Ramadan teaches us about unity and compassion. At Harita Nickel, we strive to uphold these values so that every employee feels like part of a larger family,” he stated.

Dindin also highlighted Harita Nickel’s key achievements in its Community Development and Empowerment (PPM) programs throughout 2024. The company successfully integrated 65 local entrepreneurs into its supply chain, developed women-led MSMEs with a total revenue of IDR 5.1 billion, and supported 420 farmers and fishermen through various empowerment initiatives.

As part of its commitment to preserving local wisdom and supporting Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), Harita Nickel also introduced PROPALA, a nutmeg-based processed product from North Maluku.

“Moving forward, Harita Nickel will continue to develop initiatives that create a positive impact on the community. Let us embrace the spirit of ‘Satu Harita, Memberi Makna’--working together, growing together, and driving meaningful change for the communities around us,” Dindin added.

With a workforce of over 22,000 employees across various business units, Safari Ramadan serves as a crucial platform for strengthening solidarity and corporate culture. This annual initiative reflects Harita Nickel’s commitment to fostering an inclusive and harmonious work environment, ensuring that the values of unity and collaboration remain deeply embedded in the organization.

Harita Nickel Strengthens Bonds Between Management and Employees Through Safari Ramadan 2025

As iftar approaches, the atmosphere at Harita Nickel’s worksite becomes more vibrant. The aroma of traditional Ramadan delicacies fills the air, while employees gather around stalls offering a variety of takjil (light meals for breaking the fast). The Ramadan Takjil Festival 2025, organized by Harita Nickel, has become a highly anticipated event for both employees and local vendors.
For Insan Harita (Harita employees), the festival is more than just a place to purchase iftar snacks, it fosters a sense of community and enhances the Ramadan experience within the workplace. Syatriawan Lagura, an Insan Harita from PT Karunia Permai Sentosa (KPS), shared his appreciation for the initiative, emphasizing how it creates a warm and festive atmosphere despite being away from family.

<img alt="Festival takjil" src="https://api.tbpnickel.com/storage/images/old/news_assets/Festival Takjil.png" title="Festival takjil">
<figcaption>Harita people flocked to buy takjil for iftar</figcaption>

 
“This festival brings excitement to the moments leading up to iftar. The variety of takjil available ensures that there is always something new to enjoy,” said Syatriawan. “Personally, I enjoy kue pelita, lalampa, panada, and es buah. A refreshing drink like es buah is essential after a full day of work and fasting,” he added.

Beyond enhancing employee engagement, the festival also delivers tangible economic benefits to local businesses. Rismiyati Fakaubun, a vendor from UMKM Desa Kawasi, highlighted the positive impact on small businesses in the region. Since early morning, she prepares a selection of North Maluku’s signature market snacks and fried delicacies to meet the high demand during the event.

“Alhamdulillah, since Harita Nickel introduced the Ramadan Takjil Festival, my sales have increased significantly. My products sell out daily, and my revenue continues to grow. This initiative has not only provided a great marketplace but also created a lively and supportive environment for local vendors,” said Rismiyati.

This year’s Ramadan Takjil Festival brings together 45 local vendors in collaboration with the company and contractors to provide iftar meals for more than 22,000 employees. Harita Nickel not only offers a strategic marketplace for these vendors but also ensures a comfortable and well-organized environment for both sellers and buyers.

Beyond the diverse selection of takjil, the festival fosters a lively atmosphere through interactions between employees and vendors. Many employees have their favorite go-to stalls, while some vendors become more familiar with customer preferences, allowing them to tailor their offerings. Some of the most popular items include fruit ice (es buah), traditional moist cakes (kue basah), and assorted fried snacks, which are consistently in high demand.

According to Windy Ashari, Community Development Supervisor at Harita Nickel, the initiative aims to support local economic growth while ensuring employees have easy access to quality and affordable iftar meals within the workplace.

“We want to make this Ramadan more meaningful, both for local vendors who benefit economically and for employees who can enjoy a comfortable iftar experience,” she stated.

Through the Ramadan Takjil Festival 2025, Harita Nickel not only contributes to the economic empowerment of local businesses but also fosters a warm and inclusive Ramadan atmosphere for its employees. This initiative will continue as part of the company’s commitment to supporting local economic development and maintaining a harmonious work environment that caters to employees’ well-being.

That morning, dozens of Soligi villagers visited Salam Kawasi, an integrated agricultural learning center established by Harita Nickel for surrounding communities on Obi Island, South Halmahera. Organized by the Community Development team, this Edugathering aimed to share knowledge and practical insights on integrated agriculture directly with residents.
Mohammad Mona Putra, Agriculture & Fishery Superintendent at Harita Nickel, explained that this event specifically invited the Women Farmers Group (KWT) and the Soligi United Fishermen Group (KNSB). Apart from knowledge transfer, the gathering was intended to strengthen relationships between the company and the community, fostering a more solid partnership moving forward.

He highlighted that the company offers numerous opportunities for local communities to fulfill food supply demands for more than 20,000 Harita Nickel employees. Many food needs are currently sourced from outside Obi Island due to limited local suppliers.

Participants toured the five-hectare Salam Kawasi area, seeing the demonstration plots planted with vegetables such as mustard greens, cayenne peppers, and fruits like California papayas and golden melons grown in a greenhouse. The area also features freshwater fish ponds, compost houses, and goat barns.

Guided by Albertus Darukumara and Lukmanul Hakim, facilitators from Harita Nickel's agriculture and fisheries programs, residents enthusiastically engaged in interactive discussions, particularly regarding the transformation of organic waste, such as goat manure and vegetable scraps, into compost to improve soil fertility.

Albertus explained that Salam Kawasi was previously barren, but the integrated farming techniques have significantly improved its fertility. He hoped this model would inspire local villagers to adopt similar practices.

Ibrahim, head of KNSB, said the visit provided valuable insights, particularly on freshwater aquaculture&mdash;a new concept for most fishermen in Obi. Similarly, Nur Kasim, a new KWT member, expressed interest in intensively cultivating her land for horticulture to meet local food needs independently.

Children attending the event also enjoyed learning through play, supervised by Harita Nickel’s education team. “We are grateful for the company's warm welcome. We can learn about agriculture while our children and grandchildren enjoy playing and learning together,” said Nur Kasim.

The Edugathering is part of Harita Nickel's Community Development and Empowerment (PPM) initiative, which fosters local economic independence while preserving the community’s traditional knowledge. Through this approach, Harita Nickel reaffirms its ongoing commitment to delivering sustainable positive impacts for local communities.

"This recognition reflects Harita Nickel’s commitment to transparency and effective communication with employees and stakeholders. Through our Internal Magazine, we highlight various initiatives and achievements in operations, sustainability, and workplace safety&mdash;our top priorities," said Ekhel Chandra Wijaya, Harita Nickel’s Public and Internal Affairs (PIA) Manager.

The award was given for Harita Nickel Magazine Edition III – 2024, themed “Sustainable Downstreaming on Obi Island”, coinciding with the 79th Mining and Energy Day. This edition highlights Harita Nickel’s key achievements, including four awards from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, as well as advancements in operational innovation, workplace safety, and environmental initiatives.

Beyond corporate achievements, Harita Nickel remains dedicated to empowering local communities on Obi Island through various programs. These include the launch of Propala products, which support Kawasi women entrepreneurs, and the Youth Forum: Harita Future Leaders program. One of the featured speakers in this session was Anita Gathmir, founder of Puta Dino Kayangan, a North Maluku-based SME focused on reviving and preserving the Tidore traditional weaving tradition, which had been extinct for 100 years.

This recognition further reinforces the critical role of internal communication in building a transparent corporate image and strengthening relationships with stakeholders, both within and outside the company.
