Brig. Gen. (Ret.) Warouw is a senior military leader with a distinguished career spanning multiple high-level command and strategic roles in the Army of the Indonesian National Armed Forces.

Brig. Gen. (Ret.) Warouw commented: " My ultimate goal, both professionally and personally, is to advance the progress of Indonesia. Through the Sangihe Gold Project , I am committed to delivering a once-in-a-generation opportunity for the people of Sangihe and North Sulawesi. I will vigorously support the Company's dedication to strong governance, regulatory compliance, and community development. "
