The Fangiono Family companies consist of First Resources, Ciliandry Anky Abadi, and Fangiono Agro Plantation. The three group companies are run by different individuals related by blood, therefore these can be deemed as a family-business group of companies. A CRR report on shadow companies demonstrated how using various family trusts is a strategy that has been used by companies to hide unsustainable practices. First Resources has released a statement in 2016 and 2018 respectively, stating that the group is not affiliated with FAP Agri and CAA does not have any business relationship with FAP Agri except besides on ad-hoc basis.
