What are your aims for Project Orion II?
My aims for the project is for the project to be successful and to be able to make an impact on the people who are living there.
What is your purpose for taking up Project Orion II?
Firstly I want to be able to do what I can for the environment. Secondly, I want to set an example to my own unit and friends and thirdly I enjoy going on long expeditions and taking up challenges and hardships and pushing myself beyond what i can do (i'm sadist) :D
What services do you have to offer to save the environment?
Though i'm just one man i believe i can help the environment one plastic bag at a time and hopefully the rest will follow
What do you think about the environment currently?
I think the current environment is constantly being challenged and pushed to it's limits
What do you think should be done to minimize the damage our environment is facing?
I think other than looking at the usual practices of environmental protection, We should also look into using technology to help the environment. For example, by using hydroponics we would be able to save land space as well as obtain a higher yield of crops.
Introduction to Project Orion II
is the 4th Scouts of the World Award (SWA) Voluntary Service Project of the SWA Singapore Base.
The 2nd installment of this project will be led by 9 youths from Singapore and they will return to Setiu, Terengganu, where the pioneer team had left their legacy a year ago.
The primary aim of the team would be the conservation of sea turtles, but that would not be their only contribution during the project duration of 26th June to 10th July. The 9 passionate youths will also be involved in mangrove replanting, repair work for the villagers and WWF info centre and English and conservation awareness education for the children.
