BNI Distributes 6,000 School Packs at Danantara Anniversary
Danantara Indonesia marked one year of its institutional operations through a reflection gathering held at Wisma Danantara, Jakarta, on Tuesday, 11 March 2026. The event was attended by President Prabowo Subianto, cabinet ministers, and Danantara leadership and staff.
On the occasion, President Prabowo issued guidance to the entire Danantara organisation regarding the importance of maintaining integrity, disciplined governance, and long-term orientation in managing state assets to strengthen the foundation of national economic development. According to Prabowo, Danantara was established to ensure professional state asset management oriented towards the nation’s long-term interests, thereby providing tangible added value for national development and public welfare.
“We are grateful that Indonesia now has a state investment management institution that can be compared with sovereign wealth funds at the global level. Over this first year, it has become apparent that with proper management, disciplined governance, and strong commitment, the performance of state asset management can increase significantly,” said Prabowo.
The one-year celebration adopted the theme “One Danantara”, reflecting the spirit of all state-owned enterprises to move in unified steps in strengthening the foundation of the national economy whilst creating broader impact for future generations.
Danantara Indonesia CEO Rosan Roeslani explained that the institution’s first year of operations focused on building strong institutional foundations and governance. Additionally, state investment management was directed to provide long-term benefits for society.
“State asset management must ultimately deliver tangible impact for the nation’s future. Therefore, commitment towards building the next generation has also become an important part of Danantara Indonesia’s journey,” said Rosan.
This commitment was reflected not only in strengthening governance structures, but also through various social initiatives affirming that development results must provide tangible benefits for society, including Indonesia’s young generation.
As a symbol of commitment towards the future of the nation’s youth, a symbolic distribution of 88,000 school supply packages for children throughout Indonesia was also conducted. The programme was implemented simultaneously by various state-owned enterprises across several regions as a form of support for educational access and preparation towards Indonesia’s Golden Generation.
Several state-owned enterprises participated in the programme, including PT Bank Negara Indonesia (Persero) Tbk, or BNI. In this programme, BNI distributed 6,000 school supply packages distributed across DKI Jakarta Province, Central Kalimantan, and Central Papua.
BNI President Director Putrama Wahju Setyawan stated that BNI’s participation represented part of the company’s commitment to supporting improved education quality and opening wider opportunities for young generation to achieve their aspirations.
“BNI’s participation in this programme is a concrete manifestation of our commitment to expand educational access for Indonesian children. We believe that education is an important foundation in building superior and competitive human resources,” said Putrama.
Through the milestone of this one-year journey, Danantara Indonesia reaffirmed its commitment to continue strengthening governance foundations, improving the quality of state asset management, and encouraging strategic investments that deliver long-term economic and social impact for Indonesia.
“This first year is a foundation-building phase. Moving forward, our focus is ensuring these foundations translate into tangible performance through strong governance, professional state asset management, and strategic investments that benefit the national economy and the future of Indonesia’s generation,” concluded Rosan.
