BRAVING the heat and sloshing through mud, a group of students from Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) had a fun time planting 100 mangrove saplings from the mangrove oil species (Rhizophora apiculata) at Sungai Tukun near Penang National Park (Taman Negara) in Teluk Bahang recently.

The one-day programme, known as ‘Le Tour De Restoration’, was carried out on Jan 7 jointly by the state Economic Planning Department (BPEN), Penang Fisheries Department and Penang National Park.

The programme director Mohamad Nabil Che Anuar said a total of 14 students from the Faculty of Modern Languages and Communication at UPM took part in the programme.https://www.buletinmutiara.com/upm-students-plant-100-mangrove-saplings/
