In line with IEM YES\u2019s commitment to environmental sustainability and youth empowerment, the Mission 25: Forest Nursery Hands-On Workshop & Buka Puasa Session was successfully held on 15 March 2025 at the vibrant Taman Tugu Nursery, part of the AWAN (A Weekend At Nursery) initiative\u2014a community-driven platform under the Taman Tugu Project that educates the public on tropical rainforest restoration and the importance of preserving our natural heritage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This event gathered 30 passionate participants from various professional bodies for a meaningful afternoon immersed in nature and environmental action. The event began with an introduction to Free Tree Society, an environmental NGO that champions green urban spaces and climate education through hands-on learning. Their passionate team led participants through the day\u2019s immersive activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We then proceeded with the Guided Jungle Walk through the Taman Tugu Forest Trail, where they learned about ecosystem conservation and climate change. Along the trail, various native and indigenous trees were introduced\u2014including the Merbau tree (Intsia palembanica), Malaysia\u2019s national tree, admired for its resilience and symbolic significance in our natural heritage.<\/p>\n\n\n
