Passion on Enhancing Local Environment

I was approached by Yasmin of EcoKnights to discuss their proposal on organising an inter-school recycling challenge in Bandar Utama today. EcoKnights is a community based environmental organisation working towards sustainable development projects linking up communities and industry players. The volunteers have been working on educational programmes and activities
for children and adults for the past 2 years. According to Yasmin, she is passionate about this project mainly because she has been a resident there for the last 7 years and her child attends school in the neighbourhood of Bandar Utama. I am so proud of local resident with their enthusiasm to start community sustainable initiatives. If more individual can have his or her little action, then collectively we can make a sustainable Petaling Jaya. We certainly welcome such move.
