Sharing about BSBCC with oil palm plantation communities
It was a great opportunity to share our work on sun bear conservation among oil palm plantation managers and workers during a Safety and Health Campaign organised at the IOI Leepang Palm Oil Mill, Kinabatangan, Sabah on the 14th February 2019. BSBCC's representative, Gloria Ganang shared on challenges currently faced by sun bears in Sabah and BSBCC's efforts to protect them during the talk session. An exhibition booth was also set up to display information and specimens related to sun bears and BSBCC's efforts in protecting them. A group of kids from the plantation school came to visit the booth to learn about sun bears too! Among other governmental department and NGOs present were Sabah Wildlife Department, Sabah Forestry Department, Fire and Rescue Department, Sukau Health Clinic, Sukau Police Station and HUTAN-Kinabatangan Orangutan Conservation Programme.
