NHM Employees Donate to Flood Victims in Popon Village


The Social Performance Team and Regional Affairs (KS-UR) of PT Nusa Halmahera Minerals (NHM) organized an act of solidarity to support the families affected by the recent flooding in Popon Village, Kao District, North Halmahera Regency, North Maluku. The devastating flood disaster claimed the life of a young man, Valentino, leaving his family in grief. In response to this tragedy, the KS-UR team collected donations within their department, which were directly delivered to Valentino’s family on Sunday, March 23.

The assistance provided included essential items such as food and other necessities, aimed at alleviating some of the burdens faced by the affected families. This donation serves as a tangible manifestation of NHM’s commitment to supporting the local community, particularly during times of hardship.

The efforts of the NHM KS-UR team went beyond material aid; they also highlighted the importance of empathy and solidarity in times of crisis. The deep concern for Valentino’s family led the team to act swiftly, offering not only financial support but also emotional comfort to those in mourning.

Rustam Munawar, Head of the Public Relations Division at NHM, expressed his heartfelt sympathy for the tragedy that struck the victim’s family. In his statement, Rustam said, “We are deeply saddened by what happened to Valentino. This is a time for us to offer whatever support we can to the grieving family. Although the assistance may be modest, we hope it can provide them with some relief during this difficult time.”



Rustam emphasized that the gesture was not just about providing basic goods. “More than simply offering material support, we want to show that we stand by them. Our hope is that this assistance brings some comfort and strength to the victim’s family as they navigate through this challenging period,” he added with empathy.

The donations were personally delivered to Valentino’s family in Popon Village. NHM’s involvement with the community in the wake of this disaster not only reflects the company’s commitment to social responsibility but also underscores the importance of fostering strong, harmonious relationships between the company, its employees, and the surrounding community.

Although no donation can replace the profound loss caused by this disaster, every contribution is intended to provide a measure of comfort to the grieving families. The assistance was warmly received by the victim’s family, who were deeply touched and greatly appreciated the solidarity shown by NHM.

The NHM KS-UR team’s donation initiative is a prime example of how employees can play a significant role in supporting those facing difficult circumstances.

Natural disasters often strike without warning, but in the face of such tragic events, solidarity and mutual concern are invaluable. Through the actions of the KS-UR team, NHM has set an exemplary standard for providing aid to communities affected by disasters. This spirit of cooperation serves as a powerful reminder that, in times of difficulty, we are not alone.

With the strong support and solidarity extended, it is hoped that the families of the flood victims in Popon Village will find the strength to endure this challenging period and move forward with renewed hope for the future.
