In March 2014, Cirebon Power initiated the establishment of Rumah Terasi, as one of the community economic empowerment programs.In partnership with Universitas Swadaya Gunungjati (UNSWAGATI) Cirebon, we provide entrepreneurship training and capacity building for 40 members of Rumah Terasi. Among them are related to improving product quality, production efficiency, and widening the distribution range. Not only that, we also strive for halal certification for products, as well as home industry food certification (PIRT).
Organic shrimp paste produced by Home shrimp paste is also marketed online at various national shopping sites. Rumah Terasi is also actively participating in various local industry exhibitions, both in Cirebon and the national level.Capacity building efforts continue. This year we provide marketing training, including by helping members partner with restaurants, souvenir shops, and culinary business managers.

THE ANNUAL CO-OPERATIVE
As a result of the Focus Group Discussion (FGD), in 2016 Cirebon Power began coaching the Annisa Cooperative, a cooperative that stands on the initiative of residents.
We provide training for 40 cooperative members. Among them are materials on financial management, cooperative principles, cooperative management, and financial administration. We also partner with the Faculty of hospitality, University of 17 August (UNTAG) Cirebon to provide culinary training.
Annisa cooperative members can participate in supplying logistics needs of Cirebon Power, such as snacks and catering. Some members also actively started the production of shrimp crackers and marketed them independently to restaurants and souvenir shops typical of Cirebon. In the near future, they will begin to develop product variants.
We are committed to continuing to support the capacity building of Annisa cooperative members. Their spirit is energy for us. To help build a sustainable local economy strengthening community-based.
ECONOMIC ORDER OF THE FISHING COMMUNITY (FRIENDS)
TEMAN was established as a result of the collaboration of Cirebon Power with the University team of 17 August 1945 (UNTAG) Cirebon and 50 local women who aim to improve the quality of life of fishermen around our plant site.
The Program, which was established in 2014, invites fishing families to increase the economic value of fishing results, through a home business that produces crab crackers and petis.
Together with the UNTAG team, in the future we will channel stronger business credit support for each member of TEMAN.
FISHERMAN EMPOWERMENT PROGRAM
Also supporting the spirit and hard work of the fishermen around the area of the plant, we initiated several empowerment programs to increase their productivity.
Net Feeding
More nets, more catches. We distributed 40 nets for fishing partners in 2014. We have also done the same thing in 2011, by distributing 180 nets for the residents of Waruduwur Village..
Renovation Of The Pier
New pier, for more passionate fishermen. In 2014, we renovated the dock on the coast of Mundu, Citemu Village. Furthermore, in 2015 and 2016 we renovated the dock area and added concrete lanes in Mundu, Bandengan, Citemu, and Waruduwur villages.
Fisherman’s Aspiration House
This center for activities and information for fishermen was built in cooperation with the Cirebon Power Police waters (Polair). In this jointly owned house, fishermen from 4 villages, namely Mundu, Bandengan, Citemu, and Waruduwur used to hold discussions, forums, and regular meetings.
MICROCREDIT DISTRIBUTION
This financing effort began in 2015 as a response to the needs of Citizens for financing for Micro, Small, and medium enterprises. With the full support of the local government, community leaders, and residents, the program disbursed soft credits to 499 local entrepreneurs in 2016.
In the second phase, which will begin soon, we are working with the University of August 17, 1945 (UNTAG) is preparing a special program for former salt farmers in the neighborhood.
Batik Training Program
Cirebon is known as one of the Centers of batik Nusantara. We strive for this cultural preservation program through batik training for local residents. In partnership with Universitas Swadaya Gunung Jati (UNSWAGATI) Cirebon and Batik Studio Katura, we provide batik training for 50 residents in the neighborhood. Not only training, we also supply the needs of batik tools throughout 2015 and 2016.

Each year there are 8 training groups, each of which consists of 20 participants. After the training, participants are required to take part in a 3-month internship program in small and medium industries so that they gain skills and experience to be able to start their own business.
Cirebon Power supports the training process by providing the tools and materials needed to support learning. We want to encourage an increase in the number of skilled entrepreneurs, especially for the younger generation.
Our efforts for Community Empowerment do not just stop here. We are preparing a sustainable plan to establish an electricity Human Resources Development Center. By collaborating with relevant ministries, we continue to foster hope.
Because we believe, the best results come from those who are well trained. Including in providing a sustainable source of electrical energy for Indonesia.
