PANGKALPINANG -- Healthy Cars is one of PT Timah's flagship programs in the health sector. Through the Healthy Car, PT Timah brings health services closer to communities around the mine and reaches various remote areas.

The health services provided in this car are a concrete step by PT Timah to improve the quality of public health. Apart from providing health services, it also provides health education.

Launched in 2020, PT Timah's Healthy Car has served tens of thousands of people in PT Timah's operational areas. This member of the MIND ID Mining Industry holding has three fleets of Healthy Cars to provide health services on Bangka Island and Belitung Island, Bangka Belitung Islands Province and in Karimun, Riau Islands Province.

In 2024, PT Timah's Healthy Car will once again provide health services to the people of these three islands. Mid January-March 2024 PT Timah's Healthy Cars will come to eight points with a total of 762 people receiving services.

Along with Healthy Car activities, PT Timah also often provides education about stunting management for the community through the Kemunting program. Apart from that, it also provides additional food packages for stunted children.

The presence of the PT Timah Healthy Car was enthusiastically welcomed by the community, apart from being free, this health service was considered closer to them.

As stated by the Head of Tanjung Ratu Hamlet, Rebo Village, Bangka Regency, Sudiryanto, said that this was the first time PT Timah's healthy car had come to their hamlet and the residents were very enthusiastic about seeking treatment.

"I am very grateful to see the enthusiasm of many residents who want to seek treatment. But earlier I saw that it was not only Tanjung Ratu residents who were seeking treatment, there were also residents of Karang Panjang Hamlet, which is still in the same area as Rebo Village," he said.

Sudiryanto added that residents really care about health, so residents are looking forward to health services like this.

"The arrival of PT Timah's health car to provide free health services really helps residents. Thank you to PT Timah for helping our residents get free medical services," he said.
