My Task

PT Kalbe Farma Tbk. ("Kalbe") is one of the leading pharmaceuticals and health products companies in Indonesia and is recognized as the largest regional pharmaceutical company in Southeast Asia. Established in 1966, Kalbe's aim is to assist Indonesians to achieve a higher quality of life by providing them with products that improve their health and well-being.

The mission of PT Kalbe Farma Tbk. (”Kalbe”) is to assist Indonesians to achieve a higher quality of life by providing them with products that improve their health and well-being. The Company’s main areas of business activities are the production, distribution, marketing and packaging of pharmaceuticals, health foods and other consumer products. In order to facilitate these activities, it currently operates four main divisions: Pharmaceuticals, Health Food, Packaging and Distribution. Of these divisions, in 2005, Pharmaceuticals contributed to 53% of net revenues, Health Food 17%, Packaging 4% and Distribution 26%. Kalbe was established in 1966. While it has remained consistently focused on achieving its stated mission, it has undergone significant changes throughout its period of operation in order to continue to serve the evolving and developing needs of Indonesian consumers. In particular, while it continues to develop a broad range of Over-The-Counter (OTC) drugs, it has placed increasingly greater emphasis on its ability to provide a more extensive array of value-added generic and licensed drugs.

Kalbe received the ASEAN Business Award as the winner for the Corporate Social Responsibility category in the ASEAN Business and Investment Summit 2007 held in Singapore on November 18, 2007.Kalbe was the only company from Indonesia who received the award and had been honored as one of the most admired ASEAN Enterprises.

My opinion is Kalbe Farma is good company in pharmaceuticals product . For example, this company not only produce to human but also produce for animals medicine. So, I think Kalbe Farma has good responsibility for us as a human and animals.
