The fishing safari also highlighted active community participation, fostering a spirit of togetherness and promoting healthier lifestyles. Datuk Len Talif pointed out that such initiatives contribute to building stronger community ties and a collective commitment to preserving the environment.
A significant aspect of Sarawak’s sustainability efforts is the deployment of artificial reefs along its coastline. The Sarawak Forestry Corporation (SFC) has introduced artificial reefs in key coastal areas, including Kuala Rajang, Belawai, Pulau Bruit, and Kabong. These initiatives aim to enhance marine biodiversity and support sustainable fishing practices.
The Tanjung Manis Fishing Safari 2025 not only celebrated the region’s rich marine resources but also reinforced the collective responsibility of all stakeholders in safeguarding the environment for future generations.
