PKPM, Acceleration for Community’s Independence

The Independent Rural Area Development Program (PKPM) is tightly linked to the company's contribution to jointly achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This program is an innovation that combines the potential of several villages. So, if before 2018 in the PMDM (Independent Village Community Empowerment) era, the potential was mapped for each village, then after the transformation is carried out, each village with the same potential can collaborate and develop into one area.

East Luwu has 10 areas based on leading potential, namely:
