Phapros Takes Swift Action to Assist Communities Affected by Natural Disasters
JAKARTA, October 12, 2026 – Driven by its commitment to supporting disaster-affected communities, PT Phapros Tbk has taken swift action to distribute humanitarian assistance through its Phapros Peduli program. The assistance is intended for communities affected by earthquakes in East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) and haze caused by forest and land fires in Kalimantan.
Through this program, the company has distributed medicines, vitamins, first aid supplies, hygiene kits, and essential goods to help communities cope with emergency conditions following the disasters.
The assistance forms part of Phapros' emergency response efforts to alleviate the burden on communities affected by earthquakes in Ende and Manggarai Regencies, as well as those affected by haze from forest and land fires in Kalimantan.
PT Phapros Tbk's Director of Production, Ida Rahmi Kurniasih, stated that the initiative reflects the company's concern and solidarity with communities facing difficult circumstances as a result of natural disasters.
“Phapros extends its deepest sympathies and concern to our fellow Indonesians affected by the earthquakes in East Nusa Tenggara, communities in Kalimantan suffering from haze caused by forest and land fires, and residents affected by volcanic ash from the eruption of Mount Anak Krakatau. As fellow Indonesians, we feel a responsibility to stand alongside and support those affected. Through Phapros Peduli, we strive to respond swiftly to urgent needs while collaborating with various stakeholders to ensure that assistance reaches communities in need as quickly as possible,” said Ida.
According to Ida, during disasters, communities require not only healthcare and medical recovery support but also basic daily necessities. Therefore, the assistance provided covers a wide range of essential needs to support affected communities throughout the emergency response period.
“We hope this assistance will provide meaningful benefits and help ease the burden on affected communities. Beyond providing aid, we want to demonstrate that even in difficult times, the spirit of mutual cooperation and compassion remains strong. We also hope that disaster response and recovery efforts will proceed smoothly, enabling communities to recover quickly and resume their daily activities,” Ida added.
Earthquake Relief Assistance in East Nusa Tenggara
The distribution of assistance to earthquake victims in Ende and Manggarai Regencies began in stages on August 19, 2026, through both land and air transportation, involving various stakeholders to ensure that aid could promptly reach communities in need.
As part of this initiative, Phapros collaborated with the Central Java Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) to distribute assistance by land to affected communities in Manggarai Regency.
On the same day, Phapros also partnered with the Ahmad Yani Army Aviation Air Base (Lanumad Ahmad Yani), under the Indonesian Army Aviation Center (Puspenerbad), to support the delivery of assistance by air to affected communities in Labuan Bajo.
On August 20, 2026, Phapros once again collaborated with Lanumad Ahmad Yani Puspenerbad and PT Angkasa Pura Indonesia (InJourney Airports), through General Ahmad Yani International Airport in Semarang, to deliver assistance by air to communities affected by the earthquake in Ende Regency.
The healthcare assistance included medicines, vitamins, and first aid supplies, while essential relief items consisted of hygiene kits, food and beverages, and various daily necessities such as towels, blankets, and baby diapers.
Phapros Responds to Forest and Land Fires in Kalimantan
Phapros also distributed assistance in the form of vitamins, medicines, face masks, and other logistical supplies to communities in Kalimantan affected by haze from forest and land fires.
On September 4, 2026, the assistance was transported by air to Banjarmasin. In this distribution effort, Phapros collaborated with the Banjarmasin Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) to deliver aid to three affected areas: Banjarmasin, Palangkaraya, and Pontianak.
As of October 2026, Phapros has distributed a total of IDR 400 million in humanitarian assistance to disaster-affected communities across several regions. The assistance was provided to support communities' essential needs during the emergency response period.
For Phapros, caring for communities is an integral part of the company's ongoing commitment to making a positive contribution to society. The company strives to make a meaningful impact not only through its healthcare products but also through concrete actions and humanitarian collaboration when communities face emergencies.
Collaboration among stakeholders plays a vital role in ensuring that assistance is delivered promptly and effectively to those who need it most. This spirit of collaboration is expected to further strengthen collective efforts to support affected communities and accelerate post-disaster recovery.
