A total of thirty eight (38) primary school children accompanied by eight (8) teachers from Sekolah Kebangsaan Taman Tun Dr. Ismail 2 (SK TTDI2) celebrated World Water day 2012 by participating in a River & Water Awareness Education Programme organized by Salcon Berhad, in collaboration with Water Watch Penang (WWP) and Malaysian Water Partnership (MyWP) at the Lembah Kiara Recreation Park, Taman Tun Dr. Ismail, Kuala Lumpur.
The children ranging from 8 to 12 years old had a fun and educational day at the Penchala River running through Taman Lembah Kiara or better known as TTDI Park, a green lung in the dense city of Kuala Lumpur. The kids were taught how to conduct water samplings and carry out checks on micro-organisms found in the river to understand its eco-system and to conduct a river clean-up at the end of the programme.

This is the third time that Salcon is conducting such programmes in collaboration with WWP and MyWP. The last one was successfully held in April last year for 4 orphanages at the Klang River Gates. The programme is conducted as part of Salcon’s corporate responsibility programme to raise awareness of river water protection and conservation amongst school-going children in the Klang valley.
