SOUTH PAPUA – A few days before Eid al-Fitr, Tunas Sawa Erma (TSE) Group donated basic food aid to mosques near its Boven Digoel and Merauke sites. PT Papua Agro Lestari (PAL) and PT Tunas Sawa Erma (TSE) were mobilized Friday (3/20/2026) to distribute the items.
This donation aimed to support mosque caretakers and attendees in handling the surge in events during Ramadan and Eid. Both PAL and TSE focused on meeting the rising operational needs at these facilities.
Al-Ikhlas Mosque caretaker Satiman saw the kits from TSE as more than physical support. For him, these kits mean continued solidarity, one that came through when demand for operational resources soared to accommodate more mosque activities.
“Huge thanks to the company. This kit would definitely help us serve our jama’ah [attendees], more importantly ahead of Eid. I hope it becomes a blessing [for everyone] and brings TSE and our community closer.”
Basic food aid provision is part of TSE Group’s ongoing efforts to build relationships with the people it serves.
Through its Corporate Social Contribution (CSC) programs, the company seeks to make its presence known while being involved in the lives of surrounding communities.
A part of this work is supporting local religious activities, said company representative Simon Sibha. “We want to ensure our presence benefits the people around us, especially in important moments like religious holidays,” he said.

Over time, CSC has become a bridge between the company and local communities. Its programs assist nearby residents while also instilling values of harmony, teamwork, and social awareness.
In this season of unity and generosity, these food kits remind us how solidarity grows from small acts of kindness, sincerity, and presence. (PR)
