Tokyo Cement Company, together with MEPA Trincomalee District office, extend their sincere gratitude to all who joined the beach cleanup programme in Trincomalee, as part of the National Coastal and Marine Resources Conservation Week 2017. The volunteers were able to collect over 20 truckloads of garbage and other pollutants from beaches where the campaign was rolled out.
Hundreds of volunteers including school children and residents, members of Rotary Club (District 1598) of Trincomalee, military personnel representing the Tri Forces, SL Police, Civil Security Department, officials from government institutions including the District Secretariat, Trinco Town, Kinniya and Kuchchaveli Divisional Secretariats, alongside SLPA and the Fisheries Department were seen rallying in support of MEPA’s call for Trinco coastal cleanup. Other leading corporate residents from the area such as Prima Ceylon Limited, Lanka IOC and local diving clubs, who equally believe in doing their part to keep the beaches clean played an active role in the initiative.
Lead by MEPA representatives, a passionate team from Tokyo Cement Factory in Trincomalee lead this campaign to restore the breathtaking beaches around Trinco bay. Tokyo Cement appreciates the wide Media publicity provided, which helped attract crowds for this great cause to restore our world-famous beaches back to their pristine state.
