Youth Success Story
Adhi Dwi Putro
21 years old
Pelita Bangsa College
IBL Newsletter July - August edition 2015
Adhi ' s mother and si ster are creati ve
craftspeople who embroider ladies' bags. Adhi
himself never thought he would become an
entrepreneur, but when the family business
faltered due to lack organization and strategy,
he stepped in. His initial efforts did not make a
difference, though; he had a lot of ideas and
had trouble focusing.
The change came when Adhi joined YES
Program. He met other young people who were
also working on starting up a new business or
developing their small enterprise. He attended
trainings that help him come out of his shell and
give him the courage to start a new venture. Now
he is running the family business with a clear
understanding of business and management
principles, and he has even started a franchise
of another YES Program participant snack sales
business. "This program is valuable because it is
building the number entrepreneurs in Indonesia,
especially young ones, and helping Indonesia
compete economically."
On 27 August 2015, IBL has launched its speci?c book on anti-corruption to targeted stakeholders of oil & gas sector in
Indonesia. This book-launching event is part of IBL's project supported by Center for International Private Enterprise
(CIPE) to produce a tool for mid-sized companies in value chain of companies in oil & gas sector in Indonesia to develop
their anti-corruption compliance program. The end result of this project, a booklet of guidance on developing anti-
corruption compliance program, will supplement recent CIPE publication on anti-corruption compliance guidance for
mid-sized companies in Emerging Markets (the publication could be downloaded from www.cipe.org). It's also
“…aligns with IBL's main mission to promote business ethics among private sector in Indonesia, speci?cally on building
the capacity of businesses people and providing resources for them to ?ght corruption in business practices,” said Yanti
Triwadiantini, IBL Executive Director, on her welcoming speech.
This project was started in a reality that the business environment for the oil and gas sector in Indonesia is prone to
corruption due to the volume of regulations and money involved in the business. And because oil and gas companies
are affected by the behaviour of vendors in their supply chain, anti corruption compliance among vendors – especially
mid-sized ?rms is of utmost importance. Hence mid-sized ?rms that wish to become vendors to large oil companies can
greatly strengthen their value proposition by implementing anti corruption compliance programs. Many companies in
the oil and gas sector are willing to help their vendors set up or strengthen their compliance programs. Current or
potential vendors should seize such opportunities and learn how to properly implement good and ethical business
practices from larger ?rms.
Through keynote speech during book-launching event, Chairman of SKK Migas – a main regulatory body of upstream
oil and gas industry in Indonesia – who was represented by the Deputy of Financial Controller, Dr. Parulian Sihotang,
said that this book is well-accepted by the regulatory body and it is very relevant with current effort of SKK Migas to
strengthen the anti-corruption compliance program of the third party within this industry. Based on recent research
conducted by a reputable auditing ?rm assigned by SKK Migas to perform fraud risk assessment, after a corruption-
scandal hit a former Chairman of SKK Migas, it was found that the high-risk of corrupt practices is on the third party or
vendors of oil & gas companies. “The most important thing of this guidance is one part that telling the reader on how to
design and implement a compliance program, a step-by-step method that appropriate and practical by any scale of
businesses,” said by Mr. Sihotang on addressing the advantage of this book during his keynote speech.
In this launching event, IBL has also invited speakers from the Indonesia Petroleum Association (IPA), Mr. Sammy
Hamzah, from business practitioner, Mr. Abdul Hamid Batubara, from Komisi Pemberantasan Korupsi (KPK), Mr. Giri
Suprapdiono, and writer of the book, Mrs. Chrysanti Hasibuan-Sedyono, to sit in a panel discussing the book and anti-
corruption compliance program in oil & gas sector. All speakers agreed that the book is very practical and relevant
with national effort on combating corruption in business and concluded that compliance program will be successful if
accompanied by other factors: (1) education to all stakeholders related to the program, (2) enforcement of the
consequences (reward and penalty), and (3) creating good role models or champions for others to learn.

sustainable development. However, such cross-sector partnership is often dif?cult and involves complex situation that is
far behind the expectation of stakeholders. Multi-sector collaboration requires the support by expertise for managing
collaborative processes. For that, action partners or intermediary organizations are needed to navigate the process by
being a catalyst, facilitator, coordinator, mediator, advisor, and negotiator. Such roles involve competence which is
based on both science and art.
