JAKARTA - PT PLN (Persero) distributed the Light Up the Dream (Electricity to turn on Dreams) program to 3,024 customers in 119 Customer Service Implementation Units (UP3).

The free electricity installation assistance came from donations from PLN employees aimed at helping the underprivileged.

PLN President Director Darmawan Prasodjo said the Light Up the Dream program is a tangible manifestation of PLN's commitment and cohesiveness in realizing fair energy while supporting the government's efforts to increase the electrification ratio (RE) so that all people can access electricity so as to encourage the wheels of the economy.

"The implementation of this program is carried out thanks to the empathy of PLN employees to share with others. This is our commitment to distribute electricity to people in need," said Darmawan, quoted on Thursday, March 30.

Director of Legal and Human Resources Management of PT PLN (Persero) Yusuf Didi Setiarto said that the distribution of free electricity from PLN employee donations is a form of PLN's concern for the community. He said that PLN in developing superior human resources is not enough to only develop skills and science, but must be accompanied by sensitivity to the company's environment.

Therefore, this assistance is expected to create a Creating Share Value (CSV) that provides benefits or added value to companies, the community and the environment.

"Of course, the sacrifices that friends and friends make, both those who contribute and those who take care of this material (program), are very, very much appreciated. Continue this noble struggle, a struggle that is eagerly awaited and expected by the Indonesian people who may not be lucky in having an electric connection," said Didi.
