The President Director of Holding Perkebunan Nusantara PTPN III (Persero), Denaldy Mulino Mauna, stated that the PTPN Group’s participation in this programme represents a tangible commitment by SOEs to be present and provide direct benefits to the community.
“We hope this programme can provide ease for the public to return to their hometowns safely, comfortably, and soundly,” said Denaldy in his statement on Wednesday, 18 March 2026.
Nationally, the 2026 Free SOE Homecoming Programme targets the departure of 100,000 mudik participants under the theme “Safe Homecoming Sharing Hope,” embodied in the spirit of “Comfortable Homecoming Together.”

Denaldy hopes that all participants can enjoy the journey safely and smoothly until they arrive at their hometowns to celebrate Eid al-Fitr with their families.
“Safe travels to all mudik participants. May your journey, Sir and Madam, proceed smoothly, be granted safety, and arrive at your hometowns full of happiness,” he said.
