Sudjana wins award

JAKARTA (JP): Minister of Mines and Energy I.B. Sudjana and
State Minister of Environment Sarwono Kusumaatmadja will receive
Sanobar awards for energy development and environmental care in
Indonesia.

Sanobar Foundation chairman, Victor Malonda, told The Jakarta
Post Tuesday that his foundation would also present a similar
award to East Kalimantan Governor G.H.M. Ardans for encouraging
business investment in Kalimantan's mining sector.

Malonda said they would receive the awards later this month.

The foundation, recently appointed by the state-owned coal
company PT Tambang Batubara Bukit Asam as its coal bricket agent
in Jakarta, was set up on Mar. 23, 1994 to promote energy
efficiency and to encourage the use of coal bricket.

The foundation -- in cooperation with the Pacific Rim Center
at the United States' Tulane University, New Orleans -- has also
established the Center for Energy and Environmental Technology in
Indonesia. (bnt)
