biosphere and desa reserves

two reserves the estate fills before it spends. the strategy sets them as tithes off the top: a share of every recurring dollar to the biosphere and to the desa. the share starts at 10% each and the annual general meeting reviews it every year, setting it for the year ahead as income grows. the annual general meeting of the Company is the meeting of the city council: every leaseholder votes there, and Company shares add weight to the vote. hak sewa template 9.5 sends every holding charge here as well — a plot left idle costs the land and the village, so its charge returns to them.

inflows

desa reserve — what it pays for

2. village roads and water — the jalan desa and shared water works the estate uses
3. people — scholarships and training for Gesing youth, preference to work on the estate
4. projects — proposals from the banjar, chosen with the village head

how it is kept

• two bank accounts in the Company's name, one per reserve, used for nothing else
• every inflow and payment published monthly in the register: date, source, amount, purpose
• the Director proposes each payment; a Commissioner authorises it; for the desa reserve, the village head co-signs the list of projects each year
• a balance left at year end stays in the reserve for the next year
