On the afternoon of April 2, in Hanoi, the Military Commercial Joint Stock Bank (MB) in collaboration with the Navy launched the program "Green Truong Sa - HiGreen Truong Sa", with the goal of planting 1 million trees in Truong Sa island district, Khanh Hoa province.

As a pioneer bank in digital and green transformation, MB aims to contribute VND160 billion, of which VND50 billion committed by MB will be matched through green finance actions and dissemination activities. The remainder will be mobilized from contributions from organizations and individuals through direct support.

“No contribution is small when combined for a great cause. We appreciate the support of individuals and organizations across the country, domestic and foreign partners who have and will join MB in realizing the goal of planting 1 million trees in Truong Sa island district,” emphasized MB Chairman of the Board of Directors Luu Trung Thai.

One million trees planted in Truong Sa not only create a green color on the map of the Fatherland, but will have a comprehensive impact on the ecosystem on the island. The trees have the effect of fixing sand, preventing erosion, preventing sand blowing, encroachment, and protecting constructions and infrastructure on the island.

Above all, green carpets create habitats for many species of organisms, contributing to the restoration and development of the ecosystem, creating natural balance. Trees provide shade, reduce temperatures, facilitate agricultural production, and improve the quality of life of soldiers and people on the island.
