Arutmin Indonesia in Satui. The event was held in the Utility Building Meeting Room starting at 3:00 PM WITA. Guests in attendance included Ari Irawan, Supervisor of PT. Arutmin Satui; Indera Gunawan, Chair of the Samara Foundation; and Winda Agustiana and Emma Ulvia, who are staff members of the Samara Foundation.
The delegation was welcomed by the Dean of the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education (FKIP) at ULM, Sunarno Basuki; the Vice Dean for Academic Affairs, Deasy Arisanty; the Vice Dean for Finance and General Affairs, Dharmono; the Vice Dean for Student Affairs and Alumni, Ali Rachman; the Head of the General Affairs Division, Isnawati; Secretary for Cooperation at the Cooperation and Public Relations Management Unit (UPKH), Nahdia Fitri Rahmaniah; Secretary for Public Relations at UPKH, Dewi Alfianti; and UPKH staff member, Risma Liyanti. In his opening remarks, Sunarno Basuki extended a warm welcome and highlighted several strengths of the ULM Faculty of Teacher Training and Education (FKIP) as a training institution for educational personnel. During the discussion, Ari Irawan stated that his organization has long-term plans to build a high school in the Arutmin mining area in Satui and expressed hope for input on what steps should be taken initially.
In response to this, the leadership of the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education at ULM has directed the foundation’s team to conduct a needs assessment first, so that they can determine what kind of high school would be appropriate to build in that area. Another need that needs to be identified is what qualifications teachers or educational staff should have for that school. (Admin)
