PTDI Marks Its 50th Anniversary with Commemorative Assembly and Halal Certification Program for Assisted MSMEs in Bandung

DESKJABAR – Celebrating its 50th anniversary, PT Dirgantara Indonesia (Persero/PTDI) continues to reaffirm its commitment to strengthening Indonesia’s national aerospace industry while creating meaningful benefits for the community. This commitment was reflected in the 50th Anniversary Commemorative Assembly held at the PTDI Delivery Center Apron in Bandung on Monday, August 24, 2026.

Carrying the theme “Golden Legacy, Global Horizon: Safeguarding National Sovereignty, Soaring on the World Stage,” the anniversary celebration served as a momentum for PTDI to reflect on its five-decade journey while looking ahead to the future challenges of the aerospace industry.

PTDI President Director, Gita Amperiawan, said that reaching 50 years is not merely a matter of time, but also a testament to the hard work and capabilities of Indonesians in building the national aerospace industry.

“Fifty years is not merely a passage of time, but a journey marked by the courage to dream big, work hard, rise in the face of challenges, and prove that Indonesia is capable of standing tall in the aerospace industry,” said Gita.

Empowering Assisted MSMEs to Move Up the Value Chain

As part of its 50th anniversary celebrations, PTDI also carried out Social and Environmental Responsibility (TJSL) activities in the form of a socialization and facilitation program on business legality and halal certification for 10 PTDI-assisted Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).

The program, held at the PTDI Dharma Wanita Building, was conducted in collaboration with the West Java Provincial Investment and One-Stop Integrated Services Agency (DPMPTSP) and Ayo Halal Consultant.

The MSME entrepreneurs received guidance and facilitation to obtain a Business Identification Number (NIB) and halal certification. The initiative is expected to enhance the professionalism and competitiveness of PTDI-assisted MSMEs while expanding their access to broader markets.

Mass Circumcision Program and Blood Donation Drive

PTDI’s contribution to the community was also demonstrated through a free mass circumcision program for 50 orphaned children living around the Company’s operational area. The program, carried out in collaboration between PTDI and the Habiburrahman Mosque Management Board (DKM), was conducted by medical personnel from the PTDI Polyclinic and accompanied by the distribution of financial assistance.

In addition, PTDI held a blood donation drive on August 20–21, 2026, at the PTDI Education and Training Building. A total of 115 PTDI personnel participated, with all collected blood distributed through the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) Bandung City.

Entering its fifth decade, PTDI remains committed to preserving the legacy and experience it has built while continuing to introduce new innovations to address the challenges of the global aerospace industry.

The spirit of “Golden Legacy, Global Horizon” is therefore reflected not only in strengthening the Company’s business and industrial capabilities, but also in its tangible contributions to the community and the environment.
