Yayasan Tanam Pohon Indonesia with SMKN 2 Subang and the goverment of Kabupaten Subang successfully planted 100.000 trees on Saturday, 19 Januari 2008. This planting event was the pilot for the one million trees project planned in Kabupaten Subang for October 2008. PT Hino Motors Sales Indonesia (HMS1) on their 25th anniversary celebrations in Indonesia, planted 8000 trees at Purwarkarta wth YTPI, along with the developer of Kota Bukit Indah Industrial Area, Purwakarta (PT Besland Pertiwi) and Sentul City. The symbolic event signed by the Vice President of Hino Motors, Ltd- Japan and YTPI, and implemented by all staff of HMSI at Purwakarta and Sentul. YTPI organized a planting event sponsored by HSBC and planted 18000 trees with 1500 participants. This event was graced by the presence of Miss Universe 2007 and Puteri Indonesia 2007 along with other celebrities. PT Sentul City has undertaken to preserve these 18000 trees for a period of 40 years. The trees planted comprised of a mix of Mahoni, Pinus, Africa, Salam, Bintaro, Tanjung, Ganelia, Beringin, Kaliandra and Trambesi. YTPI intends to implement several nurseries in association with the schools in Indonesia. This will serve multiple purposes. Along with awareness and instilling a concern for environmental issues in children, it also creates a constant supply of saplings – so that more and more plantation events can be undertaken. To get a first hand experience, a small nursery was set up on the roof of the office building at Melawai, Jakarta. A total of 1497 seeds were planted at the first nursery set up by YTPI in June 2007. Type of seeds planted: Future projects: As part of our mission, we are glad to announce our intent of planting more than one Million trees in cooperation with SMKN 2 Subang and the goverment of Kabupaten Subang. We will accomplish this in two phases. The Pilot Phase was implemented in January 2008 and the main phase is planned in October 2008.For this project, we are working closely with various schools in Subang. We are in the process of setting up nurseries at the various branches of the school and the school students are actively collecting seeds for this project. We have specifically chosen species like Nangka (Artocarpus heterophyllus) and Asam Jawa (Tamarindus indica), so that the local residents can obtain economic benefit from these trees without having to chop these trees down. Planting sites are also being identified and support and commitment is being sought from the local authorities including Kepala Desa, Bupati and the department of forestry. This effort will go a long away in helping reduce carbon emissions, making Subang and the world a greener, cooler and a better place and will benefit the generations to come.
