Revered for its prowess and beauty, the tiger is seen as the ‘King of the Forests’ - even the stripes on its forehead form the Chinese character Wang (王), or King.

“As someone who has worked in freshwater conservation for more than two decades, I have come to learn that changing Malaysians’ attitude and behaviour is not that easy.
.

Over the years, there have been many anti-plastic and anti-pollution campaigns aimed to inculcate a sense of responsibility and awareness amongst the public. However, plastic waste is still choking our rivers, and poisoning our wildlife. It is clear that we have to try a new approach.”

But these hidden benefits are often undervalued - until they are lost.
This World Rivers Day, find out more about the diverse values of the healthy rivers and what must be done to protect and restore them: https://pand.as/ValuingRive...
