JAKARTA - QN International Indonesia or better known as QNET Indonesia received an award for the education and conservation program of the coastal environment at the Indonesia SDGs Award (ISDA) 2023.

The award was obtained because QNET was considered to have helped improve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Indonesia.

For information, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is a global call and action to ask world stakeholders to act immediately to end poverty while improving health and education, reducing inequality, and overcoming climate change.

Meanwhile, ISDA appreciates the business world and non-governmental institutions/organizations that are considered to play an active role and contribute to the achievement of SDGs, through activities in achieving SDGs, therefore just like CSR, an appreciation is also needed in the form of organizing the Indonesia SDGs Award (ISDA).

The ICA and ISDA Awards were attended by several state-owned companies, private companies and CSR activist institutions in Indonesia and individuals. This year ICA participants for corporate/institution consist of 32 companies and, while ISDA participants consist of 101 companies.

General Manager of QNET Indonesia Ganang Rindarko said that the two 2023 ISDA awards that QNET achieved could not be separated from the important roles of all parties who in recent years have continued to work together intensively to improve the quality of life through programs initiated by QNET Indonesia.

"We continue to educate on the importance of protecting the environment by promoting tree planting in the school environment, as well as caring for and naming mangrove trees in Bali. In total we have named 3,000 mangrove trees. Especially for mangrove planting, the important role of Kodim 1611 Badung Bali, employees, QNET Indonesia, fishermen associations in Ngurah Rai Grand Forest Park, which we have appreciated for the last 3 years. Without solid cooperation, it is impossible for us to get an ISDA award that has been recognized by Bappenas," he explained.

Ganang Rindarko added that the 2023 ISDA award for mangrove planting in Bali is the 2nd title obtained.

"This shows that QNET Indonesia is highly appreciated by institutions recognized by the government as a credible institution in the Corporate Social Responsibility sector, especially the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), namely point 14, which encourages marine and coastal governance in a sustainable manner in Indonesia. The plan is that we will continue to carry out activities like this in the next few years because environmental conservation is a shared responsibility," he said.

Meanwhile, CFCD Chairman Thendri Supriatno conveyed that the company's CSR Program and SDGs Program are very strategic company activities in ensuring the company's sustainability.

"Therefore, an appreciation for the program is very important to be carried out. Appreciation for both the ICA Award program and ISDA will be carried out in a series of the same events," he explained.

As appreciation, it is given to the business world, including corporate partner institutions that have programs or activities in an effort to fulfill their social responsibilities and contribute to achieving the 2030 SDGs Goals.

Meanwhile, ICA & ISDA has received good attention from the government through the support of the Office of the Vice President of the Republic of Indonesia, as well as the Ministry of National Development Planning/National Development Planning Agency (BAPPENAS), the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK) and the National Standardization Agency (BSN).

"This is in line with the sustainable development goals (SDGs) which have become a commitment of global stakeholders.", explained Thendri.
