BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN: Ocean Week Brunei achieved another significant milestone in marine conservation with the second edition of ‘Big Blue Hope – Planting Corals, Building Reefs’. The initiative shattered the national record for the most corals planted in a single day.
Recently a fleet of nine boats from the Department of Fisheries, Fire and Rescue Department and Poni Divers departed from a jetty in Serasa for a large-scale coral planting mission at Pelong Rocks. With 67 participants, including 32 divers and 18 snorkelers, the event facilitated the planting of 310 corals, surpassing last year’s record of 210.
