- Ni JONATHAN HICAP

NAGTANIM ang Pinoy fans ni Kim

Nam Joon, isang Korean rapper na member ng K-pop boy band na BTS, ng 200 puno upang ipagdiwang ang kaarawan ng BTS leader.

Ang ARMYs (tawag sa fans club ng BTS), na pinamumunu­an ng King

Nam Joon PH, ay nagpunta sa Siniloan, Laguna nitong Linggo para magtanim ng mga puno sa lugar na bahagi ng bundok ng Sierra Madre.

Ika-24 na kaarawan ni RM kahapon.

“It took a 3-hour drive from Manila, 45-minute hike on mud and limatik infested path to reach the planting site. We passed through a stream and also had to cross through a 2-piece log. It was an exciting experience for us,” ayon sa grupo.

Pagkatapos magtanim, iginawad ang certificat­e of appreciati­on kay Kim Nam Joon at sa King Nam Joon PH na nilagdaan ni Ofelia Bakker-Mananquil, pangulo ng Fostering Education & Environmen­t for Developmen­t (FEED), at ng forester na si Reynaldo Lorida ng University of the Philippine­s Los Baños (UPLB).

“We hereby acknowledg­e that Kim Nam Joon has helped keep our planet and people healthy by taking climate action through FEED’s Corporate Social Responsibi­lity (CSR) Patrons Program, as part of the ‘Living Legacy: Plant a Tree, FEED our Future’ initiative – in partnershi­p with King Namjoon PH and in collaborat­ion with the University of the Philippine­s Los Banos (UPLB), planting indigenous Philippine tree species, including three years maintenanc­e, targeting carbon capture at the UPLB Laguna-Quezon Land Grant site, in Siniloan, Laguna, on September 9th, 2018,” saad sa certificat­e.

Katatapos lamang ng concert ng BTS sa Los Angeles nitong Linggo at patuloy ang tour ng grupo sa iba pang siyudad.
