[1] Masarang Foundation has several programs, including scholarships, palm farmer groups, although the foundation is most notably for the Masarang Palm Sugar Factory program, that uses waste steam from the power plant to heat the sugar palm sap [3].

The resulting high-quality product is now being successfully exported - with all profits going direct to the farmer's cooperative [4].

The Masarang Palm Sugar Factory started its production after opening by President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono on 14 January 2007 [5][6][7].
