N. V. NEDERLANDSCHE-INDISCHE WATERKRACHT EXPLOITATIE MIJ (N. I. W. E. M.) 
The N. I. W. E. M. was formed in 1925 by the A. N. I. E. M. and 
the Netherland East Indies Government for the purpose of develop- 
ing the water-power resources of the Konto River in east Java. In 
addition to the construction of a hydroelectric station under Govern- 
ment supervision, the N. I. W. E. M. also has built high-tension 
lines and substations for the distribution of energy in bulk to public- 
utility companies, chief of which is the A. N. I. E. M. The present 
capital of the N. I. W. E. M. is over 6,000,000 florins, which is shared 
equally by the two contracting parties. The company is managed 
by the A. N. I. E. M. under the supervision of a board of five which 
includes two A. N. I. E. M. members and three who represent the 
Government. 
The N. I. W. E. M. has only one station, Mendalan, in operation 
at present, but plans are now under way for the construction of a 
second hydroelectric plant with a proposed capacity of 30,000 horse- 
power at Siman, also on the Konto River. The present station, 
Mendalan, has a capacity of 16,500 kilowatts, and its output is used 
to supplement the power of the A. N. I. E. M.'s Diesel plants at 
Surabava and Malang. 
N. V. NEDERLANDSCH-INDISCHE GAS MIJ ( (N.1. G. M.) 
The N. I. G. M. is the oldest public-utility company in the Neth- 
srland East Indies, having been established in 1896 to supply light 
and power to Batavia and its suburbs. In 1899 the company estab- 
lished a plant at Medan, Sumatra. Further development of the 
company has been confined chiefly to the Outer Possessions. Ag 
present it is supplying current to 4 towns and villages in Java 
and to 16 towns and villages in Sumatra and the Celebes. The most 
important installations of the N. I. G. M. are in the vicinity of 
Batavia and at Medan, Palembang; and Macassar. 
At the end of 1928 the book value of the entire undertaking exclu- 
sive of renewal and reserve funds was 27,535,000 florins. During 
the same year the dividend on the company’s ordinary shares was 
12% per cent.
