Company plants 36 saplings to meet pledge

PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) held a tree planting activity in collaboration with local non-governmental organisation (NGO) Green Brunei at the Muara Recreational Beach yesterday.

It was held two weeks before PwC’s fifth anniversary celebration.

Over 30 PwC employees planted 36 saplings in support of the organisation’s commitment made last year to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. The saplings planted were eight Bucida Molineti and 28 Tebebuia Yellow.

According to a PwC statement, the organisation aims to build trust in society and solve important problems.

With its corporate social responsibility (CSR) programme, PwC aims to fulfill its purpose by focussing on three themes: inclusivity, environmental sustainability, and systemic reform. The tree planting activity was one of the firm’s actions towards environmental sustainability.

PwC is a network of firms in 157 countries, with over 276,000 members under its wings.

PwC partners Roderick Danao and Alexander Cabrera and Managing Partner Xiang Yuin Chai have been leading the delivery of assurance and assurance-related services in Brunei for five years.
