PT TWC Distributes Partnership Funds
PT Taman Wisata Candi Borobudur, Prambanan & Ratu Boko (Persero) distributed partnership funds to eight fostered partners at the TWC Head Office, Sleman, Yogyakarta, Tuesday (24/8/2021). The business fund assistance worth 225 million rupiah was handed over directly by PT TWC Corporate Secretary Emilia Eny Utari accompanied by TJSL & SME Founding Manager Bambang Sarwo Eddy and handed over to the representative of the beneficiary Feni Nur Cahyo.
Funds are distributed to fostered partners from various business sectors, such as trade, services, fisheries and property. The assistance provided is in accordance with the Sustainable Development Goals (TPB/SDG) of the environmental economic pillar to support the sustainability of Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) around the company.
"We as the managers of the affected destinations, continue to carry out our social responsibility for the surrounding community, especially in the field of financing for Micro and Small Enterprises. We greatly hope that this assistance can be used as much as possible to help businesses to move up a class," explained Emilia Eny Utari.
PT TWC through the Social and Environmental Responsibility (TJSL) Partnership Division pays close attention to the development of fostered partner businesses. This business development is the responsibility of BUMN so that fostered partners can develop even better.
"We will monitor all existing partners. I pay attention, try to be diligent or orderly. I told Mr. Edy, if it is good and orderly, then it must go up a class. We only help at the beginning, then partners can go up by borrowing from the bank with a larger value," he continued.
TJSL & SME Founding Manager Bambang Sarwo Eddy added that these funds should be used to support the business progress of the fostered partners. "Therefore, we ask that you do not ignore it and must use it as well as possible with full calculation for the progress of your business, all of you," explained Eddy.
One of the beneficiaries, Feni Nur Adicahyo, said that this assistance will be used to develop her homestay area in the Borobudur Super Priority Tourism Destination (DPSP) area.
Meanwhile, Markus Priyanto admitted to starting a new business. The catfish farmer from Jumowo Karanganyar, Central Java will develop a convection business amidst this pandemic.
"We have pioneered a convection business that produces masks and kebaya orders amidst this pandemic. This partnership fund can support the existence of our business," he said.
