MSIG helps preserve mangrove forests

MSIG Thailand arranged a day for 120 employees and their families at the mangrove forest and beach woodlands in the Sirindhorn International Environmental Park to help support the ecosystem by planting various types of plants and rehabilitating the mangrove forest with fish, coral and sea grass.

The activity raised awareness about the enormous benefits of mangrove forests, a natural ecosystem requiring preservation; and how to provide assistance in the protection of forested land that is the habitat of wild animals and various species of plants. 

It was a meaningful day for all. Staff had a better appreciation of how their participation brought about a positive impact – nourishing the ecosystem by introducing various types of plants, which acts as a nursery for baby aquatic animals. These plants later become the habitat of various animals especially resident and migratory birds.

The Sirindhorn International Environmental Park, located in the Rama VI Camp, Amphoe Cha-am, was established with the cooperation of the Border Patrol Police Bureau, Huai Sai Royal Development Study Center, and the Mrigadayavan Park Foundation under the patronage of Her Royal Highness Princess Bejaratana, on the occasion of Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn’s forty-eighth birthday anniversary, in 2003.

The park was named “The Sirindhorn International Environmental Park”, and the park’s operations follow HRH the Princess’s conceptual theme of a living natural museum.
