This tree-planting program at An Nhon Tay is a part of the "1.5 Million Trees Plantation Project" started by Toshiba Groups
all over the world. During the tree-planting event, 500 trees will be planted at Sai Gon Safari Park in
An Nhon Tay - Cu Chi - Ho Chi Minh City. It is hoped that with the addition of 500 trees,
the diversified ecology of this natural habitat could be protected, and the ecological environment improved to stand against the harsh changes
