Land support: 26 people doing beach clean up collecting 265kgs of rubbish in various form with additional wooden debris that we did not measure. PADI Torchbearer involved Fany Akuba ([email protected]) Anita Handayani ([email protected]) Bobby Janis ([email protected]) Julita Johanis a.k.a Dewa ([email protected]) I would like to suggest the form to get improved so the PADI Torchbearer participation can be added.

Our island is often hit by the high wind, even though we do not litter and create waste, we got the coming rubbish from others location.
