Yayasan Sime Darby (YSD) Back To School Programme Sipitang

14/11/2019


On the 14th November of 2019, BSBCC has been invited to participate in an event at the town of Sipitang Sabah called as the Back To School Program under the organization of Yayasan Sime Darby (YSD) and Rotary Club of Kota Kinabalu. This program showcases the principles of the philanthropic work of both YSD and Rotary Club while promoting the education and awareness on the conservation of our wildlife and nature to the public; especially toward the younger generation. The event started with opening speech from YSD representative and engaging talks from BSBCC and Marine Research Foundation, focusing on the conservation of sun bears and marine wildlife. The event was attended by Y.B Datuk Seri Panglima Dr. Kamaruzaman Hj Ampon (President of Rotary Club of Kota Kinabalu, Dr. Hajah Yatela Zainal Abidin, (Chief Executive Officer of YSD) and YB Datuk Dr. Yusof Bin Yacob (Minister of Education and Innovation of Sabah). The program, Back To School Program itself is a great program for the students indeed, aiming to reduce the burden for the students at Sipitang; 500 students coming from SMK Sindumin, SMK Pengiran Omar, SMK Pengiran Omar 2 and SMK Padang Berempah enjoyed the donation of school’s equipment for the upcoming school session of 2020. We at BSBCC would gladly love to extend our gratitude to YSD (which has been assisting a lot to BSBCC for the past few years ago) for the invitation to the program which is an excellent platform to promote the awareness and conservation of the sun bear to the public. Till we see each other next time!
