JAKARTA - PT Merak Chemicals Indonesia (MCCI) has again recorded proud achievements. This company engaged in the petrochemicals industry managed to buy three awards at once at the 2025 Best Human Capital Awards.

The three awards won by MCCI are the Best Leadership on Human Capital Commitment 2025 which was given to the President Director of MCCI, Anang Adji Sunoto. Then Best Human Investment 2025 and Best Talent were given Management for MCCI.

On that occasion, the Minister of Manpower (Menaker) Yassierli represented by the Expert Staff of the Minister for the Economy of the Ministry of Manpower, Aris Wahyudi also emphasized the importance of comprehensive human resource management will be the foundation for the nation's development in the future.

"We hope that this forum will be an instrument for human capital managers as a whole, so that we can really design the ideals of Indonesia Gold 2045 and prepare it without anyone left behind," he said at the Bidakara Hotel, Jakarta, Wednesday, August 27 evening.

As for the President Director of MCCI, Anang Adji Sunoto emphasized that this achievement is the result of teamwork, not individuals.

"I only represent the team. All these achievements are the result of their work. So this award should be for the whole team, not just for me," he said.

Anang explained that the leadership philosophy at MCCI was inspired by Ki Hajar Dewantara's thoughts. According to him, leaders must be able to position themselves according to conditions.

"Being in the middle when the organization grows, in the front of a crisis, and behind as a guard when the business is ripe," he explained.

He also said that the company's strategy is not only to talk about financial capital, but also human capital. He gave an example, no matter how much investment the company has, it will not run without a solid team.

Even investors with large funds, according to him, will not be able to move their business without the presence of a competent team.

"If you have big capital but there is no team, it's useless. At least you can just put it in the bank. But if you have a solid team, the results can be doubled," he added.

One of the proud things for MCCI is the high loyalty of employees. Almost all team members, including those who joined since the 1990s, remained until retirement.

According to Anang, this shows that work comfort is an important factor outside of financial welfare.

"In addition to welfare, we are trying to create comfort, an atmosphere that makes people feel at home, unite, and survive," he said.

Anang also emphasized the importance of adaptive attitudes in dealing with changing times and increasingly strict industrial competitions. According to him, the company only has two choices, grows or dies. Therefore, investment in human resource development is the key to maintaining business sustainability.

"To deal with current conditions, we must be agile, agile, persistent, and competitive. Because there are only two business choices, growing or dying," he concluded.
