We are grateful to all participants who share our vision of safeguarding nature for future generations."

These include the 'Garbage Hunter' initiative for cleaning up different areas in Thailand, the 'Fly Green Charity Golf Day,' a charitable golf tournament, the 'Fly Green Metro Forest' project to enhance urban green spaces, and the 'Vietjet Fly Green Charity Concert,' which raises awareness and funds for environmental preservation through concert ticket sales.
