Malakoff Corporation Berhad (Malakoff) in collaboration with the Fisheries Department, continued the Company’s annual ‘Kenali Penyu, Sayangi Penyu’ Turtle Awareness and Educational Programme at Segari Turtle Management Centre (TMC) for the sixth year running.


This year’s edition of ‘Kenali Penyu, Sayangi Penyu’ programme continued to promote awareness among the public on the threats to sea turtles. The event brought together 120 volunteers from the Fisheries Department, students from Institute of Marine Engineering Technology (Lumut campus), Universiti Kuala Lumpur and employees from Malakoff’s Lumut Power Plant. Malakoff also contributed RM13,000 to the Fisheries Department for TMC’s maintenance.


During the event, the volunteers participated in a ‘gotong-royong’ activity with the local communities to spruce up the buildings and vicinity of TMC. Participants also attended a talk on turtle awareness conducted by a representative from Turtle and Marine Ecosystem Center which emphasised on the importance of individual’s role in conserving turtles.


The highlight of the event was the release of 30 baby turtles into the sea. It was an emotional send-off for the participants to witness the baby turtles disappearing from the shoreline, into the open sea.
