18. CSR: Mitsubishi Electric Clean-up Activities at a Forest Recreational Park (Brunei) On December 12, 2009, the Ryoden Malaysia Sports Club's Brunei branch held a clean-up campaign at Bukit Shahbandar Forest Recreational Park, in Brunei. The park covers over 70 hectares of undulating land with a network of well-maintained paths crisscrossing the area. The sports club members and their families took the initiative in this clean-up activity. All the garbage collected was then properly disposed of at the rubbish collection centre. Through such activities, Ryoden is doing its part to promote a clean environment for healthier living among employees, the community and the people of Brunei.
