Jakarta Acting Governor, Heru Budi Hartono launched BUMD Menanam (Planting) in BMW Park, Sunter Agung, Tanjung Priok, North Jakarta, Monday (8/21).

Hopefully more familiar to Success Jakarta for Indonesia

This planting activity coincided with the closing of the Sports and Arts Week (Porseni) in the BUMD environment.

It is a form of support from the Regional-Owned Enterprise Development Agency (BP BUMD) for greening in Jakarta. It was expected to strengthen inter-BUMD synergy which will have a positive impact on Jakarta residents.

"We are here first is for BUMD Porseni. Hopefully more familiar to Success Jakarta for Indonesia. The second is the synergy of BUMD planting trees with a total of around 1,400 trees at several points," he expressed in the Jakarta Provincial Government's press release.

It would be conducted in stages in several areas, such as areas of Jakarta International Stadium (JIS), Rambutan 1 Reservoir, Wirajasa Embung (artificial lake), Kaja Reservoir, and Jalan Boulevard Barat Raya - Kelapa Gading.

The plants to be planted include Trembesi (Samanea saman), Ketapang Kencana (Terminalia mantaly), Pulai (Alstonia scholaris), Tabebuya (Tabebuia rosea), Bungur (Lagerstomeia speciosa), Leda (Eucalyptus deglupta), and Tecomastan (Tecoma stans).

As for Porseni activities which are closed today have been held on August 7-19,2023. Interestingly, it was just held again after a hiatus of the last ten years.

The contested activities included eight types of competitions consisting of seven sports, namely vocals,  3-on-3 basketball, table tennis, badminton, futsal, hiking, and mobile legend e-sport, as well as a BP BUMD logo creation competition and BUMD synergy. Hopefully, it could be a routine agenda.

"By saying Alhamdulillah (Thank God), I officially declare the 2023 BP BUMD Porseni closed. Of course, with this activity, we always get along," he continued.

BP BUMD Head, Nasruddin Djoko Surjono explained Porseni had been attended by thousands of athletes spread across various Jakarta BUMDs.

This first event was won by Bank DKI as the overall winner, followed by Perumda PAM Jaya, and Perumda Pasar Jaya.

"There are 1,272 participants from BP BUMD, 13 companies of BUMD, and four joint ventures. The total number of medals up for grabs is 252 medals. With a healthy body, hopefully BUMD companies and joint ventures will also improve their health," he stated.
