According to Benny, to face the economic outlook of 2023, the company had to be ready to deal with various dynamics of the industry to support the continuity of the business and a strong corporate performance.

Such games were a tug-of-war game, a chess tournament, a cooking competition, a table tennis competition, futsal, and an esports competition.

“[I] hope that other than as a celebration of Independence Day, the games may serve as a means of friendship among the staff of all departments in the Rembang factory,” Dharma said.
