00:00Preserve and maintain the quality of our environment.
00:06Today, in our Carnival program, we have also launched Eco Setiawangsa as an urban eco district.
00:19This includes green energy, low-carbon mobility, environmental management, and the Lestari community.
00:26By preserving the Lestari lifestyle, we hope to make Setiawangsa one of the pioneers
00:33to become a neutral carbon, green, and inclusive area.
00:38This benefit can be enjoyed by all the people of Setiawangsa.
00:42It has involved various central government agencies and other parties,
00:49including the BKL, Malaysian Green Technology and Climate Change Corporation, MGTC,
00:54Urban East Malaysia, Yayasan Hijau Malaysia, and the Setiawangsa Parliamentary Office.
01:01We appreciate the efforts of the BKL, including the selection of advanced species.
01:07As I mentioned, about 60-70% of the neutral carbon growth centres are located in the Setiawangsa Parliament.
01:18Today, we have announced our collaboration with various stakeholders for the Eco Setiawangsa program.
01:27We have also received an invitation from Westar to launch the Eco Setiawangsa web portal and other initiatives.
01:44In addition, we also have an exhibition booth, which includes various NRIS agencies, private and NGO parties,
01:54which can be visited in the Setiawangsa Park until this afternoon by all the citizens.
02:05In this event, we have also launched the BonioSpring Lestari packaging by F&N.
02:14It is made from paper, and the packaging is not made from plastic, but from clay.
02:23It can be recycled and used in the environment.
02:28So, this is a little bit of our nature conservation program,
02:32a continuation of the two that we held last year in Kota Baru and Batu Kawan, Pulau Binar.
