Community Field Trip from Community Tungku, Lahad Datu

On the 4th to 6th of April 2024, BSBCC organized a Community Field Trip from Community Tungku, Lahad Datu to Sepilok Sandakan. We already reached out to this community before to give them some exposure to wildlife conservation, about 16 participants joined in this field trip. They were brought to visit the Sepilok Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre, Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre, and Rainforest Discovery Centre. The purpose of this field trip is to enhance their understanding of the groundwork of governmental organisations and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in protecting wildlife species and their habitat.

 

Special thanks to WWF-Malaysia for their sponsorship of this programme. Also, to Sepilok Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre and Rainforest Discovery Centre for the guided tour throughout the visit. Not to forget the community of Tungku, Lahad Datu for their involvement and making this trip a success.
