THE 100 Million Tree-Planting Campaign 2020-2025 for a greener Malaysia launched by Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin on Jan 5 is the right direction towards a future of sustainability for the country in line with the Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement, and WWF-Malaysia applauds the government for it.
Forest restoration is one the initiatives identified in this campaign. Despite being challenging and expensive, forest restoration is immensely rewarding and fruitful, a fact which WWF-Malaysia can most certainly attest to. One need only look at Sabah to see the benefits of forest restoration.
