PENANG will see over one million trees planted on April 22 to mark Earth Day.

Organised by Penang Governor’s Charity Foundation (Yayasan Amal Tuan Yang Terutama Yang di-Pertua Negri Pulau Pinang) in collaboration with the office of state housing and environment committee chairman Datuk Seri Sundarajoo Somu, the programme is expected to be listed in The Malaysia Book of Records for most trees planted in a day.
