North Morowali, April 2025 – PT Agro Nusa Abadi (ANA), a PT Astra Agro Lestari subsidiary, once again showed its commitment to supporting communities affected by floods in its operational areas. Through concrete actions in two different locations, Mohoni Village (Morowali Regency) and Bunta Village (North Morowali Regency), the company provided direct assistance that targeted residents’ immediate needs.
On Thursday, April 3, 2025, PT ANA sent one unit of a fire engine to Mohoni Village, East Bungku District, Morowali Regency. This contribution was used to clean up public facilities such as churches and houses affected by flooding. This action is part of the company’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program, especially in the health pillar.
The Head of Mohoni Village, Batonius Bate, expressed his appreciation for PT ANA’s concern for his villagers.
“We are very grateful to PT ANA for their assistance. This really helps us accelerate the process of environmental recovery after the flood,” he said.
PT ANA’s Community Development Officer (CDO), Robby S. Ugi, said that the company’s presence amid this disaster is a commitment to supporting community resilience.
“The impact of flooding not only damages physical buildings but also disrupts the social life of residents. We are here to ease the burden and accelerate the recovery process,” he said.
With the flood conditions that have not receded, on Tuesday, April 29, 2025, PT ANA again distributed direct assistance in the form of basic necessities and special needs to flood-affected residents in Hamlet 5 (Trans Hamlet), Bunta Village, East Petasia District, North Morowali Regency.
The assistance distributed included 1,300 kilograms of rice, 260 boxes of instant noodles, baby diapers, telon oil, and wet wipes, especially for vulnerable groups such as pregnant women and toddlers.

“Alhamdulillah, PT ANA came directly to help us. May PT ANA continue to prosper,” he said. He also added that flooding has occurred yearly for the last three years due to high rainfall.
Bunta Village Head, Christol Lolo, also expressed gratitude for PT ANA’s attention.
“This assistance is very meaningful, especially for residents in areas that are still submerged,” he said.
In line with that, PT ANA’s Community Development Area Manager (CDAM) Celebes Area, I Gede Oka Arimbawa, emphasized that this activity is part of the company’s commitment.
