Key achievements in environment/social activities
- The Club has a strict policy of not cutting trees, and actively plants new trees to maintain a healthy ecosystem and ensure water quality.
- The Club also is aware of its responsibility in protecting the upper reaches of one of the major rivers which flows into Jakarta. By maintaining vegetation, particularly next to the river, we can reduce runoff during the rainy season which otherwise might lead to flooding downriver.
- Chemicals are only used when there is a pest problem, and only approved chemicals are used, in low dosages. Chemicals are only used on the greens, never on fairways. Gardeners wear protective clothing and are trained not to spill or use more than necessary.
- Staff undergo regular training programs on environmental management, with strict punishments for violations of the Rancamaya environmental guidelines.
- Hand weeding.
- Electric carts.
- Extensive recycling and reduction of waste – organic waste, paper, electricity, water. System-wide energy conservation efforts.
- Extensive use of grey water for irrigation, with large water treatment plant for recycling water from the housing estate and the club.
- The Club employs some 500 people, most local.
- Significant support for two charities: Sampoerna Foundation and Red Cross.
Philosophy
"The Club’s mission is to find a balance by providing an excellent golf course while blending in with the beauty of our location. We try to avoid environmental damage that could be caused by misuse of chemicals."

General Manager
