        "content": "<p>PT Pelindo Jasa Maritim (PJM) Region 1 has proven that robust\nfinancial performance does not solely depend on revenue growth. Up to\nMay 2026, this Pelindo subsidiary successfully posted a fantastic leap\nin net profit, reaching 171 percent of its Corporate Work Plan and\nBudget (RKAP) target. This impressive achievement was attained whilst\nactual operating revenue stood at 97 percent of the target. The\nphenomenon confirms that the aggressive cost-efficiency strategy\nimplemented by management succeeded in rescuing and widening the\ncompany\u2019s margin amid maritime operational pressures. PJM Corporate\nSecretary Tubagus Patrick revealed that the main key to this success\nlies in a comprehensive cost intervention policy. Management conducts\nperiodic evaluations of every expenditure item to ensure every Rupiah\nspent contributes directly to productivity. \u201cWe have proven that amidst\nuncertainty, operational discipline is the key to sustainability,\u201d\nTubagus stated in an official release in Makassar. Up to May 2026, the\ncompany\u2019s operating expense realisation only absorbed 90 percent of the\nbudget ceiling. This was achieved through the postponement of non-urgent\nprocurement and asset maintenance programmes, as well as the\noptimisation of field operational costs without compromising safety and\nservice standards. Despite a decline in ship call volumes at several\nmajor ports such as Belawan, Dumai, and the TUKS Tanjung Buton Jetty,\nPJM Region 1 managed to close the gap through other operational units.\nPilotage and towage services on strategic routes such as the Siak River\nin Pekanbaru, Kuala Tanjung, Bintan, and Karimun actually grew beyond\nthe target. This growth was driven by increased container ship traffic\nand the activity of mega ships requiring high-value maritime services.\nThe strict budget discipline automatically lifted EBITDA to a very\nhealthy position. Looking ahead to the remainder of 2026, PJM Region 1\nhas established three main strategic pillars to maintain positive\nmomentum. With these strategic measures, PJM Region 1 is optimistic it\ncan maintain its position as one of the most resilient entities in the\nnational maritime business ecosystem.<\/p>",
