“Sahara Energy here in Singapore is replicating the commitment of our parent company, Sahara Group towards promoting environmental sustainability across our locations. The sheer amount of trash, including plastic bottles and bags we have retrieved today, is mind-boggling. We know they are very harmful to the marine ecosystem and we all have a collective duty to protect our aquatic habitats,” he said.

According to him, the volunteering exercise gave Sahara Singapore employees an opportunity to raise awareness on the need for people to stop littering the beach, adding that it also reinforced Sahara’s belief in the critical role of volunteering and partnerships in achieving sustainable development.

“The well-being of the planet we call home can only be safeguarded when we all get involved and join forces. Volunteering is a way of life for us at Sahara and we will continue to seek ways of contributing to making the world cleaner, safer, and energized responsibly for future generations,” he added.

Speaking on the exercise, Finance Manager, Chweeyin Tan, urged beachgoers to dispose of trash responsibly, while Marc Ong, Trader, said people are duty-bound to work towards keeping the environment clean, regardless of where they live. “They are oceans and not dustbins,”  Administrative officer, Nicole Ng stated.
