Cibening village is drained by a river that is deep but has shallow water. When the rainy season, the water will overflow and sometimes flow and flood the surrounding fields which are lower than the river. But when summer comes, the river water dries up and there is only a little water left between the river stones.
The bridge that crosses the river has also been damaged many times and has broken several times and even broken. PT Gold Teak always helps to repair the bridge by donating iron rods and cement as well as labor assistance from the workers.
This time PT Gold Teak donated Teak and Tamarind seedlings to be planted on the river bank. The goal is that the tree roots can hold the soil on the riverbank so as not to slide. The Teak & Tamarind seedlings are given to village head, villagers & school communities, it is hoped that the younger generation will understand how to protect nature from being damaged and most importantly, keep water flowing in rivers during summer.
PT Gold Teak always make seedlings for community in Cibening village, to plant around houses or around the riversides and bridge sides.
