ABOUT 22,500 mangrove trees were planted in Kuala Gula, Kerian and Pasir Panjang Laut in Manjung, restoring some degraded mangrove areas in both locations.

The trees were planted over a three-year period in a venture between GEC and Yayasan Sime Darby (YSD) called “Mangrove Conservation and Sustainable Livelihood Programme”.
