MIRI: An environmental awareness programme was organised in collaboration between NAIM Group of Companies (NAIM), Natural Resources and Environment Board Sarawak (NREB) Miri and Department of Environment (DOE) on yesterday (May 10).

In its press release, NAIM said that the programme was organised to raise awareness on the latest issues related to environmental policies, and encourage collaboration between the government and private sector.

“Highlight of the event included talks on issues such as peat fire prevention and suppression, management of scheduled waste, and briefing on the “Premier of Sarawak Environmental Award,’” it said yesterday.

It added that caring for the environment makes sense as it aligns with its goals for safety and sustainability for the community.

“The event also highlighted the importance of collaboration between the government and private sector in enhancing the quality of the environment, especially during the dry period, whereby all parties are urged to be vigilant of peat fire,” it said.
