00:00We are launching a program called PPR, which is a quick win project.

00:13There are 64 houses involved in this program.

00:18We will carry out this program until December.

00:23Among the activities that we carry out today,

00:26for example, we carry out the Goto Royong,

00:28we carry out the activity of cutting down trees,

00:34lifting heavy vehicles, cars, motorcycles, etc.

00:40We cut down 86 trees in Primahan Awam Serikota.

00:51We have cut down 28 trees.

00:54We are also looking at other areas,

00:57following the phase.

00:58We will also hire contractors

01:01to implement the program of cutting down trees.

01:07Then planting trees.

01:08This is important because the trees that are cut down

01:11must be replaced in order to meet the needs

01:14of greenery and other programs related to carbon emissions.

01:21We have done this in several places.

01:25For example, in Primahan Awam Serikota,

01:27we have planted 116 trees.

01:31In PPR Seri Malaysia, we have planted 44 trees.

01:35We have identified the use of cars.

01:39We have identified that there are 447 vehicles.

01:46The number of vehicles that have been detected

01:49is 1,187, which means there are 1,634 vehicles.

01:54But we can't carry out,

01:57I mean, we can't just lift them up

01:59if we find the vehicles that have been detected.

02:01Because we have to have a due process.

02:03We plan to implement the cut-down trees

02:08in 30 areas.

02:10And God willing, we have implemented 20 areas.

02:12And God willing, we will do the rest

02:15until August 2024.

02:18To implement the cut-down trees,

02:20and this involves the community,

02:22and several NGOs and our strategic partners

02:25in implementing these welfare programs.

02:29This project or program will not succeed

02:31if it does not involve everyone.

02:34Everyone means the involvement of the DPKL

02:37or the authorities themselves,

02:39the authorities.

02:41Then the most important residents

02:43and other strategic partners.

02:45So we encourage each PPR

02:48so that the residents themselves can also play a role.

02:51Because we can make a program at once,

02:53but to maintain health

02:56or beauty and so on,

02:58it also needs the commitment of the residents.

03:01Thank you.
