Welcome
BeritaKita
e-magazine
Dear loyal Berita Kita readers,
Welcome to the 242nd edition of Berita
Kita magazine. As of now Berita Kita will
appear in digital format. Since Berita Kita was
launched as a colored monthly tabloid, we
have continually strived to enhance it, and
we received a lot of input from our readers.
The response to our monthly internal tabloid
has generally been positive. The current
digital Berita Kita format, in addition to
keeping abreast with development in digital
media technology offering everything
practical, is also to support company policy
on efficiency, namely from the printing
aspect of the tabloid itself. Since Berita
Kita was first issued in print, its circulation
increased almost double its usual 6.000 copies
which naturally impacted production cost.
Considering the current state of the company
it was decided issuing Berita Kita in digital form
would be the best solution.
Still on the topic of digital communication,
we have also launched a ‘story telling’ column
featuring a number of interesting topics about
the company through our official Facebook,
of the current faithful Berita Kita readers are
not yet followers of our stories on Facebook,
Twitter and Instagram, please visit:

30.279 loyal readers on the Facebook fanpage;
38.670 on Twitter and 94 on Instagram, which
was only launched very recently, June 2014. In
addition to ‘telling our story’ the digital social
media platform also offers us the opportunity
to establish two-way communication and
relationships with a host of readers. When any
@ID freeport
The theme of our first digital Berita Kita
edition is dedicated to The Environment
and Environmental Management in PTFI’s
Jobsite, a story that always interests readers.
In addition, in this edition of Berita Kita also
featured are a number of Jobsite activities in
the PTFI Window column and a host of other
captivating stories. E-magazine BeritaKita
is also accessible through our PTFI website

THE IMPORANCE OF THE COST EFFICIENCY COMMUNICATION PROGRAM
As part of cost efficiency culture awareness in our daily routine, it is paramount we establish a
communication and discussion forum dedicated to the cost efficiency program. By organizing
a forum with informal discussion and brainstorming sessions each employee will get the same
perspective, generate new cost-efficiency ideas, share information in terms of the cost efficiency
project achievement progress and current issues to be dealt with. Each division is expected
to have their individual method and activity in terms of disseminating information, concerns
(kepedulian) and making the employee understand the importance of this program. Therefore,
we would like to invite each division to share their communication activities in their respective
areas to the project team by means of the cost efficiency program portal or e-mail :
[email protected]
HOW TO APPLY FOR

All industries, including mining, have inevitable environmental
impact, both positive and negative creating thereby an
exchange between environmental benefit and environmental
impact. The government of Indonesia determined mining
is imperative for Indonesia’s economic development, and
has in place the system to operate our project to be able
to provide the economic benefit desired by Indonesia, while
wherever possible, mitigating the negative impact towards
the environment. PTFI is also committed to rehabilitate/
reclaim the impacted area when said area is no longer used
for operational purposes.

In the early decades of the
1900s the industry found Froth
Flotation, a mineral separation
process that change how the
metals industry operates. This
is an efficient and economical
way of mineral separation used
in the mining of base metals, for
example in Freeport Indonesia.
tailings
where did it
came from?
Tailings and Concentrate are two words that are very familiar
to us in Freeport Indonesia. Do you know how Tailings and
Concentrate created?. For more information let us look at how
freeport process the minerals since 1967
Froth flotation process have been
selected by Freeport Indonesia
because it allows low grade ore to be
processed economically and does not
use toxic chemicals.
This process is a physical process
in which crushed ore is then mixed
with an alcohol-based reagents in the
flotation bath (flotation). Through this
process, minerals containing copper
and gold is separated from the rock
particles that do not have economic
value in the form of concentrates.
Concentrate produced is equal to 3%
of the ore is processed, and the rest
becomes tailings.

When talking about education we
are all agreed on the importance
of education. Education, skills/

it is the knowledge which we need

However, in a number of far-off
areas in Indonesia there are still
many people who are unable to
enjoy the benefits of education
d u e to t h e m , i n p a r t i c u l a r i n
remote villages, among others in
the surroundings of PT Freeport
Indonesia’s Jobsite in Mimika. The
extreme lack of awareness in terms
of the importance of education is
one of the main reasons besides the
minimal availability of educational
infra structure. In order to strive
towards an education-based
community both aspects above
need to be enhanced.

s a company operating in the midst of a community, it’s only natural that PTFI doesn’t remain
inactive when observing the condition of its surrounding community. Concern develops
into a commitment for PTFI to participate and play a role in developing the prosperity of
the community in the vicinity of the Jobsite. To ensure effectivity, PTFI has entrusted the
management of its aid to the Amungme-Kamoro Community Development Association
or LPMAK.
In addition to providing aid/assistance to the surrounding community, PTFI also provides educational
facilities in the form of schools for children of the employees residing in employee-housing both in the
Highland, as well as the Lowland. In 1976 PTFI build a school complemented by outstanding facilities and
managed by Yayasan Pendidikan Jayawijaya or YPJ. In the Lowland they build YPJ Kuala Kencana, and in
the Highland it was YPJ Tembagapura. Meanwhile, for the children of expatriate employees there is the
Mount Zaakam International School or MZIS.
Matriculation and Scholarship
Program
In 2010, as many as 133 middle and high school
students passed and graduated to enroll in the
matriculation program for further education in
higher education and senior high-schools on Java
and Sulawesi. LPMAK conducted the selection
process collaborating with appointed educational
institutions at a number of schools in the Mimika
Regency. During the entire matriculation program
the students’ needs are covered/borne by LPMAK
and ongoing evaluation is conducted towards all
students to ensure they are ready and capable of
enrolling in the next education level.
In 2010, some 594 students from elementary
school level to the University Master level received
scholarships from LPMAK. During the same year,
63 scholarship recipients graduated out of which
38 succeeded to get a Diploma to a Master degree.
Ten elementary school students from the
Amungme and Kamoro tribes were chosen to enter
in the Maths and Science Training program at Surya
Institute for the duration of one year. Meanwhile,
another four LPMAK scholarship students from the
Amungme and Mori tribes enrolling in the Jakarta
Aero Flyer Institute to become pilots passed and
graduated from the program. Due to this success,
LPMAK is currently in the process of establishing
a plan to collaborate with a number of flying
institutes to train its Papuan scholarship students
and fill the demand for air transportation operators
in Papua’s remote locations.
LPMAK, represented by its education bureau
and related LPMAK management officials conduct
routine on-the-ground monitoring at schools/
institutes where LPMAK scholarship students are
attending education. The monitoring is intended to
receive input as well as providing the students with
motivation by handing out laptops to outstanding
students.

EDUCATIONAL FACILITY AND INFRA STRUCTURE
In 2010, LPMAK delivered a number of support facilities to Yayasan Pesat,
the association managing the SD Penjunan boarding school, comprising
2 housing units for the teachers, one food storage facility, one computer
laboratory and a security manning post. It is expected that these support
facilities will be able to reinforce the education and teaching activities at
the boarding school.
To support educational development, particularly in very remote areas,
LPMAK has established a partial boarding school in Tsinga, which is
complemented with school benches and a micro-hydro power facility.
LPMAK has also completed construction of an elementary school building
in Aroanop. The school accommodates approximately 250 students and
has been handed over for its operation to the Mimika Regency Education
and Schooling Office.
During Q-IV 2010, LPMAK commenced with construction of the Penjunan
girls-boarding school which burned down last 2009 and constructing the
Solus Populi boys-boarding school at SPIII, Timika. It is anticipated that
both schools will be operational by mid 2011.
COOPERATING WITH STAKEHOLDERS
In order to implement the education program, LPMAK continues to
enhance its collaboration with the local stakeholders, particularly those
in the Mimika Regency Administration (in this instance the Education and
Schooling Office). During 2010 LPMAK has signed a cooperation agreement
with the Education and Teaching Office focusing on enhancing basic and
secondary education in the Mimika Regency. The main issues underlined
in the agreement are: air transport support for the teachers in remote
areas; operational support for the Teaching Learning Resource Center;
educational facility support; providing nutritional food supplements and
providing training to increase the competence/aptitude of educators.

Laporan Tahunan Community Affairs 2013
Collaborating with the Embassy of the United States, PTFI is implementing
an extracurricular English Language program for secondary education
students in Papua.
The program supports 80 students learning the English language out
of school, and 30 students in the language and daily-life skills education
boot camp. The cooperation will be for 2 years. LPMAK has also established
cooperation with the Papua Provincial Administration and PTFI by means
of its contribution in the Papua Science Olympics at the tertiary education
level (Senior High School) coordinated by the Papua Knowledge Center,
Jayapura. LPMAK has contributed US$35.000 to this activity.
SUPPORTING TEACHERS IN REMOTE LOCATIONS
LPMAK also supports the teachers assigned to remote locations. Some
of the teachers teaching at the schools along the coastal area are teachers
recruited by LPMAK from the Timika Diocese. Meanwhile, the teachers
in the Highland are teachers from the Mimika Regency Education and
Schooling Office. Other support by LPMAK is providing air transport for
teachers in the Highland and fuel for teachers along the coastal area in
the Lowland.
Operational support for LPMAK is provided by PTFI by means of the
Partnership Fund. The aid is intended to develop the prosperity of the
Seven Tribes living in PTFI’s Jobsite vicinity. The fund is taken from PTFI’s
annual gross income and distributed through LPMAK to assist health,
education and economy development programs.

Indonesia which consists of thousands of islands
keeps so many traditions, unique customs. Each
island is inhabited by tribes and each tribe has their
own culture and customs. So is this island in the far
east of Indonesia. Various tribes inhabit this island,
some lives in coastal areas and some are living in
the tree-covered mountains. They all hold their
own traditions and unique culture. They have so
many traditions and customs that we can learn to
understand the lives of our brothers and sisters.
they will
never
forget the
loved ones
who have
gone
Mountain people, so they are known, are tribes
living in the highlands or mountainous area, in the
jungle that is usually cold and distant from the city.
Of course, their traditions and customs are adjusted
to their lives. They have many unique traditions and
customs that may not be known by general public.
Thought about my childhood Paniai, I had the
opportunity to see first-hand some of the traditions
of tribes living in the mountains. And one of the
traditions is still very clear in my mind is when
someone pass away, for mothers who are grieving;
they would smear their bodies with mud. I also
often see some of the ladies who have lost one or
more knuckles.
Turns out this is one way they show grief and
condolences for the family of the deceased. This
is done by some tribes in the mountains of Papua.
One of the tribes who practice this unique tradition
is Dani.
Dani tribe in Baliem Valley cut off their fingers
when they lost brother. This is done by Dani women
as a form of their deepest condolence and grief
because of a family member had died. This tradition
has been going on for long time and although it
is rare in practice today, there are still some of the
mountain people who still do this.
This cutting of their finger joints is usually done
by the husband or the head of the tribe by using a
stone ax.
One other unique thing that is usually done by a
grieving woman is rubbing mud all over his body.
And it is said that they will not shower until the
mud dried on her body and goes away by it.
Thinking and imagining this, makes me think,
why is this done? Losing a loved one is certainly
a very painful experience. Sometimes the grief
cannot be expressed, that is why their heartache
is shown by cutting their knuckles to feel the grief
and pain of losing a loved one. In addition, the
hands are used every day to support them, this
way; they will never forget the loved ones who
have gone.

The CCIP
(Community College Initiative Program) is a oneyear scholarship program by the United States State
Department. Participants to the program hail from
various countries and are sent to a number of states
throughout the US. In addition to being a student
in the participant’s country they are also required to
apprentice in a professional company and complete 100
hours volunteer work for a social institution.

bobby yomaki
Studying in the United States is everyone’s dream,
including mine. Developing the quality of life both
intellectually as well as character-wise is my life. There
are still so many things to be learned, people say there
is another sky above the sky and I am not smart enough
not to study further. Furthermore, after regretting
wasting the opportunity of a scholarship in Holland I
became very motivated to join the CCIP scholarship
program.
The selection program is basically the same as any
other scholarship process, namely by elimination. In
Freeport’s case one registers at QMS and participates
in a number of tests such as TOEFL, written test and
interview session.
The long selection program I went through was
finally rewarded when I set foot in Arizona, US. Here
is where my unforgettable memories start. I enrolled
at Scottsdale Community College in Public Relations,
Journalism, Cinematography, Film Editing and Digital
Story Telling. In addition I also attended a non-credit
class in Business Planning and Project Management,
Grant Writing Workshop and others. I was lucky to be
sent to Arizona where Freeport’s head office is based.
Head office provided me with the professional training;
and as a journalist and public relations personnel I had
the opportunity to interview a number of managers in
Freeport, Phoenix.
In the beginning living in the US was rather awkward
as I had to adjust to the local customs. The ordered
ways, respectful, friendly and humbleness of the people
helped create a feeling of love for the country. Sadly,
there are not too many American students who know
where Indonesia is located. As for food, don’t ask! Bland
and boring food made my head spin. I compensated
this by going to the Asian market to buy instant noodles
(Indomie).
Irrelevant of the brand and taste, to me the noodles
tasted like heaven!
Not meaning to sound ‘Americanized’, but after my
exposure in the US, my lifestyle and mindset changed
to the positive. I used to think I knew a lot, but as it
turned out it was a big zero! My experience in America
helped change my personality significantly in terms of
perspective.
This valuable experience has given me added value
in terms of knowledge to advance my career, ahead.
As a Papuan I am proud of my achievement but it isn’t
complete if I didn’t share it. I encourage all my Papuan
friends to participate in the program because it enables
one to develop provided the knowledge added value
which can subsequently be shared with many others.

I heard about Freeport when I was in grade 3 of
elementary school at Manokwari. At that time, my
neighbor who worked for Freeport went home for
vacation and always wore a T-shirt written Tembagapura
which made me interested to know more about
Freeport. When I was in high school, I liked reading the
local newspapers where they wrote about the current
situations in Timika and PT Freeport presence, he said.
Working with the Public Awareness and Education
program is very pleasant because it deals with many
stakeholders either within Timika or outside, where
we have been promoting Freeport environmental
management programs with its implementation to the
public communities.
Unfortunately, we often run into the problems
because many people don’t understand about the
importance of keeping the environment that we live on.
Many of our stakeholders in Timika don’t understand
about the environmental programs, and so we have to
reach them out.

Commemorating the Environmental Month each year to participate conserving
the environment constitutes a responsibility and also commitment of PT Freeport
Indonesia (PTFI). Therefore, June 5, International Environment Day is widely
celebrated by national administrations/governments, the Indonesian community
and a number worldwide, including companies concerned for the environment
such as Freeport in Indonesia,
Pace dong dua lihat isu Hari Lingkungan ini menarik, jadi dong dua bahas untuk
kitong semua!
Martop : Pace… Midum, you
are used to celebrate Environmental
Day, every year, right…?
Midum : Oh… how right you
are … I am truly an environmental
fan in this company, so naturally I
participate each year.
Martop : Yup… if you look
at those people in the PTFI
Environmental Department, they
are really busy with arrangements
to commemorate Environmental
Day.
Midum : Right, the celebration
takes place on June 5; there are a
number of support activities and
the peak will be an Environmental
Exhibition on June 14-15, 2014.
Also, there is something no less
interesting, namely the company’s
commitment to conserve the
environment; this is something we
should be discussing, too.
Martop : Yup… I fully agree. As
part of the PTFI Extended Family we
must support this commitment. So,
what do you think the company’s
commitment is like?
Midum : In line with the
company’s vision and mission
embodying the purpose of principal
values especially the environment.
Therefore, based thereon Freeport
Indonesia is committed to
implement it in the field, both
internally as well as externally and
collaborating with a number of
parties.
Martop : Agreed, Mate…
as far as I can see, the company
has already accomplished much
in terms of the environment,
both on an internal as well as an
external level. How about giving
some examples in terms of the
company’s internal environmental
conservation activities?
Midum : For example, along
the company’s entire location,
both housing locations as well as

workplaces, the company suggests
keeping the environment green
by planting trees, planting flowers,
maintaining cleanliness and many
others. Also, we are requested to
take care and protect all kinds of
animals and plants/vegetation
living in areas surrounding the
company. It is a serious and
mandatory request to all company
employees or outsiders entering
into our protected area.
Martop : Ok, now what about
the eco/green activities and the
environment?
Midum : You need to know… in
2013 PTFI reclaimed 137 hectares of
tailing in the Lowland, whereof six
hectares are in the Ajkwa estuary
comprising mangrove vegetation.
Therefore, millions of vegetation
is now thriving and enhancing
the area. Furthermore… in the
Highland the focus has been on the
open mine Grasberg area. In 2013
approximately 25.01 hectares of
overburden areas were reclaimed
and planted with local plants
totaling about 80.954 local plant
seedlings on the Highland habitat
which is located at an elevation of
over 4.000 meters above sea level.
Martop : Awesome… do you
have more info?
Midum : Yes, in terms of the
mining operation, the company
also focuses on the quality of
the environmental water, air,
ground, land biota, sea biota and
agricultural products and many
others. Conserving the forests is
also included as is preserving and
overseeing the ecosystem in all its
workplaces, or Jobsite because PTFI
owns a conservation area complete
with its own biodiversity. There is
also an internal campaign program
in terms of environmental education
which has also been shared with in
schools in the Mimika regency and
Papua, since 2005.
Martop : How many times is
PTFI audited during a year?
Midum : Oh… well… there
are 6-7 audits or internal and
external overseeing during one
year, incorporating SNI 19-14001
and ISO 14001-based independent
auditors. Also, PTFI’s environmental
management is implemented
based on the AMDAL commitment
which is a standard proposed by
the government and required to
be implemented as a government

Martop : Ah… I see. Now I have
learned much more about PTFI’s
environmental info.
Midum : Correct… actually
there is more, but if the two of us
were to discuss it further it would
become boring. So… we do it bit
by bit; thereby it remains interesting
and can be easily absorbed by the
readers. What is important is that
through our chats the readers
understand about the company’s
environmental commitment. So,
mate… let’s keep the rest of our info
for future editions and future chats,
okay?!
Happy Environmental Day 2014
