        "summary": "PLN's bonus distribution From Tempo It is unreasonable for state electricity company PLN to distribute bonuses, though PLN's loss decreased by over half from Rp 5.9 trillion in 2003 to Rp 2.02 trillion in 2004, which was a very big success. But the question is whether PLN booked a profit or whether it just managed to cut its losses. It makes sense for a company to hand out bonuses if it books a profit. But in reality this was not the case with PLN.",
