Community Sustainable Initiative - Flat PKNS PJS 2

Sustainability is about improving the current initiative for making it leaning towards sustainable development. It can be a simple project, but progress gradually becoming a programme. It can fine tuning the existing imitative for making it more cost effectiveness and environmental friendly. It can a simple gesture embracing other aspects for sustainability. Whatever it is, it should be talking about integrating developmental dimension of social, economy and environment through partnership and participation of government, private sector and the community.

I saw the sustainability element in many programmes undertake by the RT Flat PKNS, Taman Dato' Harun, PJS 2. Their recycling effort has gone into making nature craft with old paper or magazines and more importantly the nature craft is made by the women group and for sale. The business response is very encouraging. I think this is sustainability we are all pursuing for.

They have prepared the succession plan in which youth are groomed to take over and initiate programmes. There is a girl providing tuition classes during weekend. They have also looked into the security and beautification scheme to green their neighbourhood.

I think this is a case study of LA 21 in action.
