I am currently a student in Universiti Sains Malaysia, Penang pursuing in Biological Sciences and majoring in Environmental Sciences. Nowadays, I am very aware that there are a lot of development occur near the shore in Penang. Teluk Air Tawar-Kuala Muda shore which located in Mainland, Penang is a stop over for 10,000 to 12,000 individuals of shorebirds at a single site during migratory period. However, this site is currently prone to various pollution and development that threatened the shorebirds population. In addition to this problem, people are still lack of awareness on issues pertaining the shorebirds. Therefore, I believe that by collecting funds for Shorebirds Peninsular Malaysia Project (SPMP), it could help the organization in research purpose and also outreach program. These incentives are being seen as one of effort to educate the people on shorebirds and what we can do to protect them. I am aiming to raise in total of RM3000 where it could be used for educate the public. In order to reach the study site, a total of RM200 expenses need to be spend for transport and other utilities. Hence, this donation is really essential to allow research and education to be conducted.
There you go Farzana, Kita tolong-menolong. Just something I could help. Good luck!
