The event was attended by management representatives from PLN EPI and PLN Energi Gas, the Tenggarong Seberang Subdistrict Head, members of the Subdistrict Leadership Coordination Forum (Forkopimcam), the Tanjung Batu Village Government, and the Tanjung Batu Village Kelulut Honey Farming Group. During the event, a symbolic handover of program assistance took place as a form of the company\u2019s support for the development of the kelulut honey farming business in the village.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to the opening ceremony, participants also received training on the economic potential of kelulut honey and its various byproducts. The material was presented by experienced kelulut honey beekeeping practitioners, providing participants with a comprehensive overview of the business opportunities that can be developed in this sector.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Participants also took part in technical training focused on improving beekeeping capacity. The material covered techniques for kelulut honey production, the process of harvesting honey and propolis, and the practical aspects of processing and extracting propolis\u2014all guided directly by academics and experts in the field. Through these hands-on sessions, the community gained a more comprehensive understanding of the standards for managing high-quality, value-added products. In addition, training was provided on business downstreaming aspects, ranging from product licensing and honey and propolis packaging to product marketing strategies. This material was presented by the Kutai Kartanegara Regency Cooperative and SME Office to strengthen the capacity of the beneficiary groups in developing competitive businesses with broader market access.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This Kelulut Honey Cultivation Development and Mentoring Program is expected to create an alternative source of income for the residents of Tanjung Batu Village while supporting environmental conservation through the development of stingless bee cultivation, which plays a vital role in maintaining ecosystem balance and increasing crop productivity through pollination.<\/span><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PLN Energi Gas Corporate Secretary Elok Faiqoh Saptining Ratri stated that this program is part of the company\u2019s commitment to creating sustainable added value for the community through the development of local potential that aligns with social, economic, and environmental aspects.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThrough the TJSL collaboration between PLN EPI and PLN Energi Gas, we aim to deliver an empowerment program that not only provides short-term benefits but also fosters long-term economic self-reliance for the community. Stingless bee farming was chosen because it offers promising economic potential while supporting environmental conservation through the bees\u2019 role as natural pollinators. We hope this program can serve as the foundation for a community-based business that continues to grow and has a positive impact on Tanjung Batu Village,\u201d said Elok.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Furthermore, Elok emphasized that the success of the TJSL program is not only measured by the implementation of training activities and the provision of assistance, but also by the community\u2019s ability to manage and develop their businesses independently after the program concludes.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe believe that collaboration, ongoing mentoring, and community capacity building are the key elements in creating impactful and sustainable TJSL programs. PLN Energi Gas will continue to support empowerment efforts that strengthen the community\u2019s economic resilience while preserving the environment,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through this collaboration, PLN EPI and PLN Energi Gas reaffirm their commitment to continuing to deliver TJSL programs that have a tangible impact on the community and the environment. Moving forward, both companies will continue to provide guidance and evaluate the program to ensure the sustainability of the initiative and the achievement of the goal of empowering communities to become self-reliant, productive, and competitive.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This program is expected to transform Tanjung Batu Village into a center for kelulut honey cultivation capable of producing high-quality, high-value products, and to serve as a model for community-based economic development rooted in environmental conservation in Kutai Kartanegara Regency.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Contact Person<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Corporate Secretary<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PT PLN Energi Gas<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">021-29721019<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">About PLN Energi Gas<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PT PLN Energi Gas (PLN EG) is a subsidiary of PLN EPI that operates in the midstream gas sector.
