Merauke, August 22, 2024 — PT Bio Inti Agrindo (PT BIA) has further strengthened its commitment to supporting the health of its employees and surrounding communities by inaugurating a new clinic at Estate C. The establishment of this clinic is part of PT BIA's ongoing efforts to expand access and improve the quality of healthcare services within its operational area.


The inauguration ceremony was led by PT BIA's President Director, Mr. Kim Won Il, marking a significant milestone in the company's journey to make a tangible contribution to the health of the local community. In addition to the clinic inauguration, the event was enlivened by a blood donation drive organized in collaboration with the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI).


In his speech, Mr. Kim Won Il emphasized that the clinic is a testament to PT BIA's commitment to enhancing the well-being of its employees and the surrounding community. "The presence of this clinic is not just a medical facility but a symbol of our social responsibility to the communities around our operational areas," he stated.


Estate C Clinic, which has been operational since January 2, 2024, is now officially recognized as the primary healthcare center in the area. Equipped with modern facilities and staffed by competent medical professionals, the clinic has already served over 8,000 outpatients, 300 inpatients, and assisted in the delivery of 60 babies. On the day of the inauguration, the clinic also received additional medical equipment from Posco International, further enhancing its medical service capabilities in the region.


The blood donation drive held in conjunction with the clinic's inauguration successfully collected 216 units of blood on the first day. The activity continued on the second day, August 23, 2024, at the Estate B Sports Hall, where an additional 129 units of blood were collected. In total, over the two days, the blood donation drive gathered 345 units of blood, significantly contributing to the blood supply in Merauke Regency, especially since it was designated as a new province.


The Head of PT BIA Clinic, Dr. Wawang Tirtana, expressed his gratitude and appreciation for the active participation of employees and the community in the blood donation drive. "This extraordinary participation demonstrates the immense concern of the entire community for the humanitarian needs in this area," Dr. Wawang remarked with deep emotion.


Through the establishment of this new clinic and the execution of humanitarian activities such as the blood donation drive, PT BIA once again affirms that the company's concern extends beyond business profits to the well-being of its employees and the surrounding communities. Behind the numbers and statistics recorded lies a genuine human touch. Each unit of blood collected has the potential to save lives, and every small step taken brings great hope for the future of Merauke.
