Balikpapan Division

The Balikpapan Division, just one hour and fifty minutes from Jakarta by airplane, is adjacent to the Indonesia' cleanest and safest industrial city, Balikpapan, in east Kalimantan.
A thirty minutes ride from Balikpapan's Sepinggan airport along a seafront express way ends at a warf where visitors need to transfer to a speedboat, a faster form of transportation to get to the Production Division.
Travelling at a speed of forty miles an hour, the boat will reach the Log Production Division in about forty minutes and from there it will take another twenty minutes to reach the Plywood Production Division. Nearing the Korindo operation, visitors will first see a native fishing village with houses built above the sea, before they arrive at the office of the Plywood Production Division. The division hosts a large Korindo Township where 14,000 employees, including their family members, are residing.



Kijang Division

The Kijang Division is located in a Township called Kijang in the south-east corner of Bintan Island, which is part of Riau province. Bintan Island, located southwest of Singapore, is well-known as a fantastic honey moon resort. The resort area is on northern part of the island, and was built by Singaporean investors under a leasing agreement.
Historically, the island was a transit stop for sailors travelling the sea route between China and Arabia through Malacca Strait from as early as the first century. It then became the ideal port for European several hundred years ago to gain access to strategic bases around the region.
Along with tourism, the division plays an important role in the robust regional economy with its high productivity having an annual turnover of US$ 60 millions.




Irian Jaya Division

Irian Jaya has a population of approximately 2 million people, of which about forty percent are indigenous people and the rest are migrants from as far away as Java, Kalimantan, and Sumatera. It shares the island with Papua New Guinea (PNG) on the eastern half, where the natives cross-over into frequently. The Irian Jaya Division is located close to the PNG border, 320 km north of the district capital of Merauke, (about a ten hour journey by four-wheeled drive), and is about 6,000 km east of Jakarta. This is really a place where civilization has yet to encroach into deeper interior areas. The core area of the Irian Jaya operation, Asiki, situated alongside the deep, navigable Digul River, is home to a large plywood factory, where 5,000 local employees together with 40 Korean nationals constitute a Township called Korindo Irian Jaya (Korindo Asiki).
