altim Prima Coal (KPC) focuses on several areas in its CSR projects to help the government increase the welfare of the community living around the company's mining site.

"We have at least seven focuses in our CSR projects, including cultural conservation, education and health. Our target areas for our CSR are four subdistricts surrounding the mine, namely Sangata, Rantau Pulung and Bengalon, and other subdistricts in East Kutai," said KPC's community empowerment manager Wijayono Seroyo.

Wijayono said that KPC had long provided scholarships for locals. "Countless scholarships for all school grades continue to be given to students. We funded the construction of SMUN1 state senior high school, the best high school in Sangata. To date, we have funded at least 40 schools," he added.

The company has also provided funds for local students wanting to earn bachelor's degrees at prominent universities, including the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) and the Bogor Institute of Agriculture (IPB).
