On 24 March 2022, the Manager of Corporate Affairs of Musim Mas, Yuandy, represented the Group and donated the funds directly to the Mayor of Dumai, H. Paisal, SKM, MARS. The donation was accompanied by the Corporate Affairs of PT Inti Benua Perkasatama, Yunus. The company is part of the Musim Mas group.
The Dumai Islamic Center will have a capacity for more than 500 people and be the center of Muslim community activities in the city. It will be equipped with amenities such as meeting halls and library facilities to provide a conducive environment for worship and other Islamic activities.
The contribution aligns with Musim Mas’ deepened commitment towards improving the livelihoods of smallholders, workers, and communities as laid out in its revised Sustainability Policy. With operations in Dumai, the Group will always be active in providing support to the locals and the Dumai Government. Just last month, Musim Mas donated $187k to renovate the Grand Mosque of Medan located in North Sumatra.
