Palu – Integrity is a fundamental pillar in building trust and achieving success, both in business and in society.

This was emphasized by Chairman of the Central Sulawesi Provincial Board of the Asosiasi Pengusaha Indonesia (APINDO), Wijaya Chandra, while speaking at the 14th General Assembly (Musyawarah Besar/Mubes) of the Student Executive Board (BEM), Student Representative Council (DPM), and Student Associations (HMJ) of STAH Dharma Sentana on Friday (March 13, 2026).

Addressing approximately 449 students in attendance, Wijaya Chandra stressed that integrity is a non-negotiable value in building reputation and trust.

“Integrity is essential. Without integrity, trust will not come a second time,” he said.

The event also featured Indra Jaya, Commander of the Military Police Command (Danpomdam XXIII/Palaka Wira), who delivered insights on leadership and discipline.

The occasion also marked the beginning of a collaboration initiative between APINDO Central Sulawesi and STAH Dharma Sentana, particularly in the development of an upcoming economics study program, as well as programs in cultural and religious tourism.

The planned collaboration includes several strategic initiatives such as the “Entrepreneurs Teach” program, a business incubator for aspiring entrepreneurs, student internship opportunities, and media collaborations through economic and business discussions to be broadcast on Darsana TV.

Also present at the event were the Chairman and Secretary of APINDO Central Sulawesi, along with the Secretary of the prospective APINDO Palu Regency Board (DPK). They expressed their commitment to becoming a strategic partner of STAH Dharma Sentana in strengthening human resources and supporting regional economic development.

Wijaya Chandra also conveyed appreciation to the Head of STAH Dharma Sentana, Agus Budi Wirawan, and the academic community for involving APINDO in academic activities attended by hundreds of students.

According to him, the APINDO Mengajar (Entrepreneurs Teach) program represents a form of community service by entrepreneurs affiliated with APINDO. Through this initiative, business leaders will serve as mentors and role models for students.

“We hope students will be motivated to prepare themselves to become innovative and creative human resources, and in the future capable of becoming successful entrepreneurs,” he said.

The signing of the cooperation agreement between APINDO Central Sulawesi and STAH Dharma Sentana is planned to take place after the 2026 celebrations of the Nyepi and Eid al-Fitr holidays.
