PT Patra Jasa continues to strengthen its commitment to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles through concrete environmental conservation actions. The company's latest step is the planting of 1,000 mangrove seedlings in the KSS Beach area, Sukawali Village, Tangerang Regency, Banten.
This initiative was chosen for a reason, given that mangrove ecosystems play a crucial role in maintaining coastline stability and minimizing the risk of abrasion. In addition to acting as a natural barrier, mangrove areas serve as vital habitats for various marine life, including fish, shrimp, and shellfish, and have a significant capacity to absorb carbon, known as blue carbon.
Kurnia Pinayungan, Director of Finance and General Affairs at PT Patra Jasa, stated that the company's ESG implementation does not stop at written policies. The company strives to achieve sustainability through real actions that have a direct impact on the ecosystem and surrounding communities. He hopes this step will provide sustainable benefits for future generations.
In its implementation, Patra Jasa established a strategic collaboration with the Lindungi Hutan (Protect the Forest) community. This synergy focuses not only on restoring coastal areas but also on encouraging the active involvement of company employees in supporting the sustainable development agenda in Indonesia.
This mangrove rehabilitation step aligns with Patra Jasa's business focus, which operates in the property, hospitality, and services sectors. As a company with a track record of over five decades, the corporation is committed to aligning all its business operations with the energy transition and green economy agenda to support the national target of achieving net-zero emissions.
