Corporate Social Responsibility in 2023
As part of the “BBRM Giving Back to Nature, Giving Back to Community" initiative. The Company’s Responsibility is not only focused on the environment but also on society and culture. The actions chosen to preserve culture were Batik, Wayang and Angklung.
First Activity
We visited the “Rumah Batik Komar" in Cigadung, Bandung on October 25, 2023.
The activities included participating in a brief workshop to learn about the art of batik, including its history, techniques, traditional batik patterns, and their respective regions of origin. The workshop concluded with a practical session on creating batik using the hard stamp technique, which involves using a stamp with specific patterns to print motifs on fabric and natural coloring methods that are very environmentally friendly. Through training programs in the field of batik skills, batik craftsmen are expected to be able to develop their businesses in a sustainable.
Second Activity
We visited the “Saung Angklung Udjo" in Padasuka, Bandung on October 26, 2023.
This show contains several spectacular short performances, such as: Wayang Golek demonstration, traditional dance art, beginner Angklung, orchestral Angklung, mass and Arumba. At the end of the performance, the audience will be invited to play the angklung together and dance with the children. Wayang and Angklung are one of Indonesia’s cultural heritages recognized by UNESCO. We hope that this activity can motivate and move parties to actively participate in developing wayang and angklung as part of national culture.
The Company is committed remaining actively involved in this cultural preservation activity, so that it can contribute to safeguarding Indonesia’s cultural heritage.
