BOGOR – As a company specialized in forestry and plantation, Korindo Group continues to give contribution in environmental sustainability. This is the main cornerstone that drives the company in building city forest in the area of Pakansari Stadium, Cibinong, Bogor, West Java on Saturday (30/11).
The groundbreaking of the city forest was marked by the planting of tree seedlings which was performed by the Regent of Bogor, Ade Yasin, Senior Vice President of Korindo Group, Robert Seung, General Secretary of Korindo Foundation, Yi Sun Hyeong, Deputy Ambassador of South Korea to Indonesia, Jeon Joyoung, and a number of officials from other regions in Bogor.
“On this occasion, we are collaborating with Bogor Regional Government, with aim to build a city forest on approximately 2-hectare land, next to Pakansari Stadium. Despite being a small forest, we hope later on, this place will function as a city lung in Bogor Regency. In the future, we hope to build other city forests in Bogor or other regions in Indonesia in a sustainable way,” said Robert Seung in his speech.
In this green collaboration program, Korindo Foundation will not only do the planting in the early stage, but Korindo will also be directly involved in the monitoring and maintenance process of the city forest in the next several years. This is the first step of various greening programs and environmentally-friendly aspects in Bogor Regency area.
