Putera Sampoerna Foundation Report Quarter 3 2009

INSPIRED TEACHERSFOR INSPIRED STUDENTS

3rd Quarter Report 2009

Dear Committed Partners,

In August, Indonesia once again celebrated its independence. The country has come a long way since 1945 and suffered many trials and setbacks. The future and continued prosperity of Indonesia, however, is in the hands of its youth. And to lead the countryforward, tomorrow’s leaders must have not only a deep and abiding pride in their country but also an understanding of the complex global relationships of which Indonesia is a part.

We are therefore delighted that, with your support, Sampoerna Foundation has this quarter inaugurated two new Sampoerna Academy international boarding schools in Palembang and Malang that will specifically benefit poor but academically performing students. Sampoerna Academy students are rigorously selected and follow a world class international curriculum. However the schools seek not only to teach but also to instill in students a core set of values that will enable them to become effective and responsible future leaders.

To develop outstanding students takes great teachers, and great teachers are not born, they are made. That is why, in addition to providing opportunities for students, Sampoerna Foundation is also taking innovative steps to train and develop world class teachers. This initiative took another step forward this quarter with the inauguration of the Sampoerna School of Education (SSE) in Jakarta. By training outstanding teachers, the SSE plays an essential role in supporting the ability of Sampoerna Academy international boarding schools to provide the best education for high school students.

We also provided more support for Muslims to contribute to the education of tomorrow’s leaders through alms payments. Sampoerna Foundation has no political or religious affiliation. We nevertheless recognize that, in this predominantly Muslim nation, religion and philanthropy are inextricably linked. That is why Sampoerna Foundation has established Bait Al-Kamil, an alms distribution unit that allows Muslim families to channel their alms-giving specifically to the provision of education to the economically disadvantaged. Bait Al-Kamil is established with the goal of developing truly globalized future Muslim leaders.

It is the future potential of young people from all walks of life that inspires us to provide opportunities for them to develop that potential. That inspiration is shared by the many partners from within Indonesia and around the world that support us in so many different ways. In Palembang and Malang, for example, local governments provided the land we needed to build the schools and the dormitories. In Bali, East Kalimantan, Central Kalimantan and Central Sulawesi the Trada Foundation helped us provide scholarships for needy students. In Yogyakarta, Standard Chartered Bank helped us implement Project Based Learning in local schools. And as far away as Kazakhstan, MEASAT helped us realize the dreams of two Sampoerna Foundation beneficiaries who travelled to the country to witness a satellite launch.

Sampoerna Foundation remains committed to boosting collaboration with all partners and the Indonesian government to enhance the quality of education in this country. In celebrating our independence, let us also celebrate our future and take the necessary steps to bring it to fruition.

Thank you for contributing to changing the lives of those who are most in need of your continued support.

LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT


“Great teachers do not feel threatened by new paradigms, fast developing technologies, and new scientific discoveries. Instead, they use all as tools to

stimulate the interest of students.”


MAIN STORY

2

enthusiasm for the teacher’s chosen subject that elevates good teachers to become great teachers. The teacher’s enthusiasm for the subject is what will inspire the students to stimulate their own thinking, and motivate them to expand their knowledge on their own.

Research-drivenTeachers driven by a passionate search for new intellectual vistas and perspectives within the boundary of their disciplines enrich and enliven the teaching process. Such teachers are, at heart, enthusiastic researchers who constantly enhance and expand their mastery of their subject and offer their students a broad spectrum of insights. Excellent teachers present these insights in a manner that students can understand and enjoy, instilling a love of learning that translates into stronger analytical capabilities, honed intellects and the capacity to examine issues and problems from multiple perspectives.

CreativityThe combination of passion and scientific rigor drives creativity in education. Teachers who truly inspire their students present their subjects not as a collection of stark facts but as a constantly evolving landscape. Everything in this fascinating world can be questioned and critically re-examined, and new perspectives are always welcomed.

ChangeGreat teachers do not feel threatened by new paradigms, fast developing technologies, and new scientific discoveries. Instead, they use all as tools to stimulate the interest of students in the subject. Today more than ever, teachers have the capability to expose their students to the very frontiers of their disciplines, creating a thirst for further study and understanding, and encouraging students to develop and put forward original thoughts and opinions. The creativity of the teacher is mirrored in the full development of the creative potential nascent within each student.

CareWhile passion for the profession is essential, care and love for students are the most important characteristics of all. Excellent teachers encourage the growth of individual students by matching their approach to suit the needs and capabilities of the students under their tutelage. Above all they support their students, helping them navigate the maze of ideas toward the progressive acquisition of knowledge and understanding, using the rich and varied tools at their disposal.

In searching for and, more crucially, developing and training excellent teachers, we should hold these important character-istics paramount. If we are able to train teachers according to these principles then we will succeed in making teaching a fun, challenging, and rewarding experience for both teachers and students. Inspired students in turn will respond by exceeding the expectations of their teachers, contributing to a stronger and more robust education system that makes a lasting contribution to the development of the nation.

Professional teachers are always in high demand. They play an instrumental role not only in ensuring that young people acquire academic knowledge and skills but also in shaping them into responsible local and global citizens. They inspire creative, innovative students who are at ease with new technologies and able to make informed decisions through-out their lives. They also lay the foundations for future leaders of excellent character and good moral fiber.

Excellence Excellence is rooted in performance. If students are not learning, the performance of teachers cannot be considered satisfactory. Yet the tremendous changes we see in our environment and in the interdependency of our world create new challenges and new opportunities for teachers to excel.

PassionGreat teaching is rooted in passion. Passion for the teaching process itself, for taking on the responsibility of shaping and nurturing young minds is important. However it is passion and

”The SSE will serve as a Center of Education Excellence and will use innovative educational technologies to provide higher value in the learning and teaching process. We will also

develop a culture of research among the teaching staff and the students,“ Prof. Dr. Paulina Pannen.

Sincere Congratulations - Iowa State University President, Gregory L.Geoffroy offers SSE his congratulations on its inauguration via the advanced

video conference facility that supports SSE’s modern learning.

Proud Scholars - L-R: Ron Perkinson, Prof. Dr. H. Muchlas, M.Pd., Paulina Pannen, four scholarship recipients, Yos Adiguna Ginting, Niken Rahmad.


The symbolic inauguration of the Sekolah Tinggi Keguruan dan Ilmu Pengetahuan Kebangkitan Nasional or Sampoerna School of Education (SSE) on October 7 in Jakarta would have been like any another school inauguration ceremony – had the 89 newly admitted students not undergone a rigorous three stage selection process from over 1,100 other applicants.

All the students at the SSE are scholarship recipients from families facing financial difficulties. Without the scholarships, these students would have little chance of pursuing their dreams of becoming professional teachers.

The 89 selected scholars received scholarships for a four-year education, some with full-boarding and expenses.

42 students will major in mathematics, while 47 students will take English as their education major. The students are expected to become the new generation of Indonesian teachers, capable of mentoring their students to be the country’s future leaders.

Among those in attendance during the ceremony were Director General of Higher Education Human Resources at the Ministry of National Education Prof. Dr. H. Muchlas M.Pd; Head of Research and Development at the Ministry of Law and Human Rights Prof. Hafid Abbas; and Iowa State University, Nanyang Technological University and Massey University representatives. PT. HM. Sampoerna Tbk Corporate Affairs Director Yos Adiguna Ginting was also in attendance. PT HM. Sampoerna Tbk has donated more than Rp 50 billion to support the scholarships and the construction of campus facilities and infrastructure.

About SSEThe SSE is a response by Sampoerna Foundation to the shortage of professional teachers in Indonesia and serves to address the immediate need for more than 10,000 trained educators. The SSE was established as a continuation of previous teacher training programs provided by Sampoerna Foundation. The SSE offers educational programs in Mathematics and English following national and international curricula, and will use the latter as the language of instruction.

PROGRAMS

During the inauguration of the Sampoerna Academy in Palembang on August 3, 2009, Sampoerna Foundation Board Chairperson Michelle Sampoerna reiterated the Foundation’s commitment to provide access to quality education for the best performing students from poor families. “Economic resources alone will not provide our country with progress and prosperity but the develop-ment of human capital and the grooming of our young leaders will determine our future as well,” she said.

Sampoerna Foundation collaborated with the state-run high school, the regional government, and the Ministry of National Education to establish the South Sumatra SMAN Internasional (Sampoerna Academy), a boarding school for top performing students. The high school aims to provide the highest possible quality of education through the IGCSE curriculum standard.

These students will receive not only the knowledge but also the life-skills to become effective and responsible leaders, displaying international awareness, global competitiveness, strong moral fiber and the social consciousness to give back and contribute to society.

The curriculum integrates international and local standards, while upholding the country’s identity and values. It is intended not only to teach academic and leadership skills, but more importantly, instill in students a value system that promotes morality, empathy, tolerance and social consciousness.

The school provides for the student’s every need, including accommodation, making admission to the school a unique privilege. That is why, in her speech, Michelle encouraged students not to treat this “gift” lightly. “This is an investment! You have been given the opportunity to achieve academic excellence and develop your leadership to better serve your communities and your country. Learn today, lead tomorrow; but do not forget whence you came,” said Michelle.

“You are the teachers and mentors of tomorrow’s leaders. Serve with pride, responsibility and excellence,” she added.

The South Sumatra SMAN Internasional (Sampoerna Academy) has granted scholarships to 70 students. In addition to Palembang, Sampoerna Foundation has also inaugurated a similar school in Malang, East Java, the SMAN 10 Malang (Sampoerna Academy), which granted scholarships to 150 students.

Donors supporting the Sampoerna Academy in Palembang and Malang are PT. HM. Sampoerna Tbk, which provided grants for infrastructure development including the boarding facility; PT. Merparti Mahkota Sarana, producer of Standard ballpoint and marker pens; and Olympic Furniture, which provided desks and book shelves. Other contributing donors include Bank Sumsel, PT Bukit Asam, PTPN VII, PT Tanjungenim Lestari, Index Furnishings and Angkasa Pura II Palembang.

Governor and Cheerful Scholars - South Sumatra Governor Alex Noerdin ex-presses his joy at the inauguration of the Sampoerna Academy in Palembang during his speech. The governor also congratulated the cheerful scholars for

their success in receiving the prestigious scholarships.

NEWS & EVENTS

Correct implementation of corporate social responsibility initiatives can create opportunities, innovations, and advantages for companies, according to a strategic discussion on “Corporate Social Responsibility as a Competitive Advantage”. The discussion was hosted by the Sampoerna Foundation and the Intellectual Business Community at the XXI Club, Djakarta Theater Building, on September 10, 2009.

Three CSR specialists, Intellectual Business Community Executive Director Dr. Bayu Prawira Hie, Microsoft Indonesia Private Sector Director Teja Kusmana, and Sampoerna Foundation President and CEO Ron Perkinson, led the discussion, based on the topic “Strategy & Society: The Link between Competitive Advantage and Corporate Social Respon-sibility,” a Harvard Business Review article by Michael Porter and Mark Kramer. Hundreds of companies participated in the discussion.

In explaining the interdependent relationship between companies and communities, Bayu Prawira said that communities with good quality of life and stable incomes with strong purchasing power, can deliver a positive impact on companies within these communities. Sampoerna Foundation President Ron Perkinson supported this view and said that investments in implementing CSR programs are nothing compared to the advantages these programs generate for the company. Head of Institutional Income Tax Section II at the Directorate General of Taxation Wahyu Santosa, AK., M.Si. advised that companies implementing education programs as part of their CSR activities may be eligible for tax deductions in the near future.

The seminar aimed to help SMEs understand CSR and help them identify, develop and implement suitable programs, which would provide benefits to the company and to the communities in which they operate. Speakers at the seminar included Indonesia Business Links founding member John Arnold and Sampoerna Foundation President Ron Perkinson.

John Arnold explained how capacity-building programs for SMEs could enable them to apply integrated and sustainable CSR practices. He also called upon Indonesian corporations to adopt CSR initiatives as a component of their business strategies to provide benefits for the private sector, government and the community at large. Sharing Sampoerna Foundation’s experiences in empowering SMEs, Ron Perkinson stressed that CSR is a wise investment in human capital development for SMEs.

Two high-performing Indonesian students were at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on June 22 to witness the launch of the MEASAT-3a satellite. Sylvia Ayu Pradanawati, a Physics Department student at the Institut Sepuluh Nopember in Surabaya, and I Wayan Alit Sudarsana, a high school student at Bali’s SMAN I Semarapura, are both Sampoerna Foundation scholars. “We are proud to be able to make their dreams come true,” said SF president Ron Perkinson. “We hope their visit will convince other Indonesian students that each can reach their dreams so long as they continue to focus on their performance.” Similar to other Sampoerna Foundation scholars, the two selected students came from financially disadvantaged families.

In addition to witnessing the satellite launch, Sylvia and Wayan joined students from Malaysia, Sri Lanka, India and the UK to visit other space technology facilities in Russia. The event was funded by MEASAT and supported by the Russian Embassy in Indonesia.

The undersea earthquake that struck Java, Indonesia’s most populous island, on September 2, 2009 shocked the world. The 7.3 intensity quake destroyed thousands of homes and left more than 40 people confirmed dead. Rescue teams were deployed across a wide area of West Java, the worst hit region.

The tragedy captured the attention of the Sampoerna Foundation family. Scholars from the Sampoerna Foundation Scholars Club based in Bandung, West Java quickly acted to lend support. Youngsters responded quickly to pleas of help for those in severely hit places, prticularly Pengalengan, Cianjur, and Pamengpeuk.

A handover took place on September 11, 2009. Under SFSC Bandung’s coor-dination, some 40 scholars together with Mercy Relief representatives and paramedic volunteers from the IBU Foundation assessed victims and provided urgently-needed help. Mercy Relief, in cooperation with Carrefour, also handed out foods, infant formula, blankets, cooking utensils, and building materials.

In addition to coordinating the process, the SFSC Bandung created mobile schools. University scholars volunteered to teach and recite the Koran, provide learning and playing sessions, and held storytelling gatherings – all to help children recover from the mental trauma and bring back joy into their lives.

The Sampoerna Foundation Alumni Associates (SFAA) and Sampoerna Foundation held a seminar entitled “Creative Entrepreneurship: The Art of Start” at the World Trade Center, Jakarta, on July 15. The seminar was aimed at supporting young entrepreneurs from the creative industry to make contributions to the development of the national economy.

With non-alumni also in attendance, the seminar not only reflected the strong relationships amongst Foundation alumni but also illustrated the tangible contributions they have made to the nation’s economic development. Over 50 participants were inspired by four prominent panelists from various backgrounds who shared their industry knowledge and experiences. The panelists were International Young Creative Entrepreneur of The Year (IYCEY) Music Award 2006 winner Yoris Sebastian; IYCEY Screen Award 2008 winner Sakti Parantean; Pelangi Mizan Publisher CEO and Founder Irfan Amalee; and independent writer and artist Syaharani. The seminar also facilitated a networking forum for the enthusiastic young participants.

Although praised by the government for creating jobs and contributing 6.3 percent to the country’s total GDP, the panelists revealed that lack of collateral, connections and experience leave most young, creative entrepreneurs struggling to secure small loans from banks. Nonetheless, most of them remain upbeat and productive.

SFAA Presidium Iben Yuzenho Ismarso said, “We in the creative industry must not only seek solutions amid challenges, but must also create opportunities.” Scholarship for Sampoerna Foundation Head Rini Tampi added, “The young generation is a force for innovation, ideas, and creativity. This seminar proves Sampoerna Foundation’s commitment to identify the latent potential among young people with the hope that they will become leaders in national and global businesses one day.”

The seminar received support from the British Council and sponsors including Olympic Furniture, CLEAR, and BCA Flazz.

“Producing future Muslim leaders capable of competing in the global environment”

The Sampoerna Foundation recently partnered with Bait Al-Kamil – an Alms Distribution Unit (UPZ) – which channels alms to economically disadvantaged Muslim students for the purpose of education.

Launched on August 19, the UPZ Bait Al Kamil is a channel for Indonesian Muslims to contribute alms to help fellow Muslims continue their education. Bait Al Kamil will use the donations to cover the educational expenses of talented yet financially challenged Muslim students from elementary to post-graduate level with the goal of producing future Muslim leaders capable of competing in the global environment.

“We must remember that Islam obliges Muslims to pay alms, and such an obligation should not be overlooked. Muslims should have no fear of poverty by donating some of their fortunes to others, as Allah promised in the surah (chapter) of Al Baqarah, verse 263, that the more we donate to good causes with the purest of hearts, the greater the satisfaction will be,” said Prof. Dr. KH. Didin Hafidhuddin, M.Sc, the National Alms Management Body Chairman. Bait Al-Kamil’s Board of Counselors includes KH. Mustofa Bisri, popularly known as Gus Mus, a highly respected counselor to the Central Board of the largest Islamic organization Nahdlatul Ulama (PBNU), and H. Isbir Fadli, Head of the Alms Institution Guidance Office at the Ministry of Religious Affairs.

To facilitate the channeling of alms through Bait Al-Kamil, the UPZ has opened the following accounts in Bank Muamalat:YPS-UPZ Bait Al-Kamil, account number 0000056623, for alms•YPS-UPZ Bait Al-Kamil, account number 0000056706, for donations•

Transfer receipts should be faxed to 021-5772341. For further information on paying alms or making donations through Bait Al-Kamil, interested parties can contact 021-5772340, extension 7082 or 7087.
