A 3-way partnership to promote 'global cooling' and greening of Indonesia between printer and fax manufacturer Brother Indonesia, Yayasan Tanam Pohon Indonesia - a voluntary non-profit organisation and PT Marga Sarana Jabar - a toll road company.
Brother Indonesia with its 'Go Green' environmental focus plants a tree for every printer sold in Indonesia with YTPI. YTPI teamed up with PT Marga Sarana Jabar to plant these trees along the newly constructed toll road to provide a green forest belt wih native tree species. A wonderful partnership demonstrating the collective efforts to tackle climate change. |

A GREEN partnership between
Yayasan Tanam Pohon Indonesia, TS Suites, Bupati Sidoarjo
and Letkol Djentayu - led to planting of 2000 trees
in Sidaorjo this year.
TS Suites has been collaborating with Yayasan Tanam Pohon Indonesia since their launch last year, to plant a tree for every room night sold. So while providing a
great service to their guests, the hotel is making a
positive impact on the environment in Surabaya,
making it the first truly 'Green' hotel in
Indonesia.
Randolph Bubu, owner of TS Suites and Karl Waelti, CEO of Core Hospitality International are the people who made this happen. Karl Waelti’s
is passionate about education and training of staff
for the Hospitality & Tourism Industries in the
region. "It’s the extra thought that makes the
difference".

Since
its formation, YTPI has planted over
260,000 trees with corporate partners,
individual contributors and volunteers.
YTPI promotes biodiversity:
Yayasan promotes bio-diversity
and also avoids planting very commercial
trees like Jati. We feel that optimum
benefits will accrue if we select
rainforest, long lasting trees. Our choice
of trees, so far has been made in
consultation with the community in the
chosen area and also keeping in mind the
bio-diversity principle.
Sustainability:
For all our projects - we pay
special attention to ("what will happen
after we plant these trees") the maintenance
aspect. We have MOU’s to safeguard and
maintain the trees planted, with the real
estate developer (for example PT Sentul
City) or an MOU with a local institution
with the support of the local governmental
authorities (like the MOU with SMK2
witnessed by the Bupati of Subang). These
are serious commitments to preserve the
trees for at least 40 years. Areas are
chosen where progress can be monitored.
The Important Thing:
Together we can improve our
communities, one tree at a time!
We look forward to working with more such
like minded organizations with YAYASAN TANAM POHON INDONESIA (YTPI).
