It's just a fresh combination of cooperation in order to promote a green project which saving sea turtles in Pantai Padang Kemunting, Malacca. Nokia Sustainability Division (SEAP) has been in a number of times by contributing in green project , such as re-planting trees previously.

But of course, saving turtles it's not the first time that Nokia Sustainability Division (SEAP) doing. But why Nokia Sustainability Division (SEAP) chosen to save sea turtles? Is this shows we should concerned about environmental issue? Or we should care more about nature creature? Why is it saving sea turtles in Malacca? And how they save those turtles?

It's been a lot of confusion and questions been asking around. Sea turtles is one of the most precious animals in Malaysia. Why are they so precious and what makes them so special? It's because there's a certain period of season, the sea turtles will swim to the sea side where near to the Malacca and lay their eggs. In 2006 and 2007, WWF-Malaysia fitted five hawksbills that nested on Malacca's beaches with satellite transmitters. It is one of the most interesting and attractive moment while the tourists around the world would purposely have a tour by only take a look at this amazing scene in their life.
