Hello readers ..



Remember my postings about SORR or Save Our Rainforest Race which I have been supported for years? 

SORR which was firstly introduced by Pertubuhan Pelindung Khazanah Alam Malaysia  PEKA in year 2013, is an annual race against time with the aim to increase the awareness of the public on how important it is to preserve our mother nature. 

In SORR, participants were taught on how important are trees and nature in our life through interactive educational activities and one of the most important task is tree planting where participants planted trees to show their love to the world. 


SORR 2018 will be held in the state of Selangor with UMW Toyota Motor Sdn Bhd as the main sponsors.
