The sustainability reporting process is not just a matter of fulfilling obligations, but a reflection of transparency that continues to be strengthened in running a responsible business.“Sustainability is part of our identity. In every operation, whether in the Sorowako Block, Pomalaa Block, or Bahodopi Block, this principle has always been the mainstay. This award is not only an achievement, but also a reminder that transparency and accountability must continue to be the standard in this industry,” said Febriany Eddy, CEO of PT Vale Indonesia.Every year, efforts in compiling sustainability reports are carried out by increasingly deepening reflection and evaluation of the impacts generated, ensuring that every published data is not only accurate, but can also be a reference in making strategic decisions in the future.Amidst increasing expectations for sustainability practices, stakeholder trust is a crucial element.
