TAWAU: The implementation of the Bornean Elephant Grass Planting project with an allocation of RM451,181 at the Brumas Sabah Softwood Berhad (SSB) farm is seen to be in line with the company’s commitment which emphasizes environmental sustainability.
Chief Executive Officer of SSB, Datuk Mohd Daud Tampokong, said the pilot project will be implemented for two years, starting this year by four academics from
Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) which is funded through the allocation of the Malaysian Palm Oil Green Conservation Foundation (MPOGCF).
What’s more exciting, he said, is that two SSB staff will be involved in the project as prospective master’s students under the sponsorship of the project.
