Back from Sangatta, East Kalimantan for a week site visit to the largest coal open pit mining in the world, I feel that a lot of lesson that I learned from this company. Here are several lessons that I got
1. Always focus
The coal company has a very large mining concession with the government, so big that maybe it takes more than 40 years to dig the coal deposit from one pit -ok just imagine that each year this company produces more than 40 million cubic of coal -just like I said before, it is the largest in the world.
The mining strategy is to dig the coal with the maximum reachable technology and mechanism -as fast as possible and only stop when the deposit already empty. Yes perhaps you can say it is greed. However miner never thinks like that, since they responsible to renovate or rehabilitate the pit after mining processing over.
2. Always improve
When you have your own mine site, maybe your concern is just as simple as dig fast and move fast -most of the mine concession is limited by time and location. Mining mechanism especially coal is very simple, by using excavator, dump truck (Liebher T282, Euclid Hitachi, Caterpillar 797 or just Komatsu) and complex conveyor control. And sometimes you will loose your time for improvement.
So what do I learn is, even with the very limited time, budget or everything you should spend some money or invest some thing for your development. (more…)

Several days ago, I read some article which said that:
“…More than 30% of all job applicants provide false information on their resumes, according to the Society of Human Resource Managers
And the top five most outrageous lies according to Hireright are
1. Falsifying the Degree or Credential Earned
2. Inflating Salary History or Title Held
3. Concealing a Criminal Record
4. Exaggerating Dates of Past Employment
5. Hiding a Drug Habit
…”
That’s why every company need to have a good head hunter, since lying on curriculum vitae or resumes is very easy. And based on my experience even some of biggest company in Indonesia doesn’t have a good mechanism for background checking or screening for their employee.
Any opinion?
