Bunut Kantor Elementary School Renovations
During the first quarter of 2009 Southern Arc completed the renovations to the Bunut Kantor School in the Mencanggah prospect area. The social assistance provided by the company was based on having noticed that the local children were being taught in a poorly-maintained structure that was open to the elements as well as being structurally dangerous to students and staff.

The elementary school for 50 to 60 students was repaired and renovated by Southern Arc using locally hired carpenters and other local workers, thus also providing some temporary work for local tradesmen and a small infusion of cash into the local economy. The Company also provided educational aids and supplies in the form of notebooks, pencils, erasers, text books, etc. The refurbished school has become operational again, with at least 50 students able to return to school and now being educated at the facility.
