LANGKAWI: All schools on Pulau Langkawi should take their students on a field trip to Kilim Karst Geoforest Park to show them the importance of environmental sustainability, says Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek.

She said her ministry provides space for students to learn outside the classroom, including visiting the Geoforest Park, which has complete facilities and is appropriate for them to gain exposure to sustainability issues.
