World Mangrove Day 2024 : A Day to Celebrate & Safeguard Our Mangrove Forests

PT Asian Bulk Logistics is proud to support mangrove conservation through our CSR initiative, which has successfully planted 3,945 mangrove seedlings across two locations. In collaboration with the PBKL team from DKI Jakarta, we planted 1,945 seedlings on Tidung Kecil Island in the Thousand Islands, Jakarta. More recently, we partnered with Lasik and the Tanjung Batu government to plant an additional 2,000 seedlings along the coast of Tanjung Batu, Berau, East Kalimantan.

Our mangrove planting efforts are a proof to PT Asian Bulk Logistics' commitment to addressing climate change. Mangroves play a crucial role in mitigating coastal erosion, especially in areas like Tanjung Batu, where many locals rely on fishing and live near the coast. By planting mangroves, we help protect these communities from the adverse effects of coastal erosion.
