        "content": "<p>Shopee Indonesia, together with the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government\nand BenihBaik.com, has carried out the planting of around two thousand\nmangrove seedlings on the northern coast of Jakarta to commemorate World\nMangrove Day. Deputy Director of Government Relations at Shopee\nIndonesia, Balques Manisang, stated that the collaboration with the DKI\nJakarta Provincial Government through the Food Security, Marine Affairs,\nand Fisheries Agency, as well as BenihBaik.com, is hoped to contribute\nto the preservation of the mangrove ecosystem and provide sustainable\nbenefits for current and future generations. The seedling planting\nactivity is a tangible manifestation of the Shopee Peduli: Tanam Hutan\nIndonesia programme, which invites the public to contribute to mangrove\necosystem preservation through the interactive Shopee Tanam game and the\nDonation feature on the Shopee application. The programme, which ran\nfrom 5 June to 20 July 2026, attracted the attention of more than 50,000\nShopee users who participated in the game and made donations. In over 30\ndays, users collected 100,000 virtual trees called \u2018Pohon Shopee Peduli\u2019\nwithin the game, which allows users to experience the process of sowing\nseeds, watering, and caring for seedlings daily until they are ready to\nbe harvested and converted into real mangrove seedlings. Balques\nManisang said the planting activity represents Shopee\u2019s commitment to\npreserving Indonesia\u2019s natural environment by involving user\nparticipation through technology. She expressed appreciation for the\ntens of thousands of users who took part, noting that technology can\nbridge the gap to enable real environmental action. Participation came\nnot only from Jakarta residents but also from users in areas such as\nSurabaya, Medan, Denpasar, Balikpapan, Makassar, and Samarinda,\ndemonstrating that technology makes environmental action accessible to\nanyone, anywhere. Shopee collaborated with BenihBaik.com to turn digital\nparticipation into real conservation efforts. As a social programme\nplatform experienced in running Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and\nEnvironmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives, BenihBaik.com\nsupported the conversion of virtual trees into mangrove seedlings\nplanted in the Ecomarine Muara Angke area, North Jakarta. Founder and\nCEO of BenihBaik.com, Andy F. Noya, said the mangrove ecosystem serves\nas an effective natural fortress to dampen waves and prevent seawater\nfrom reaching the land, helping to resist abrasion and erosion. He added\nthat managing the mangrove ecosystem requires collaboration from various\nparties, and BenihBaik.com is pleased to work with Shopee and the\nJakarta Provincial Government to protect the ecosystem and bring a\npositive impact to the surrounding community. Deputy Governor of DKI\nJakarta, Rano Karno, conveyed the importance of synergy between the\ngovernment, various stakeholders, and public participation in\nenvironmental conservation efforts, including mangrove planting. He\nnoted that together with government agencies, businesses, educational\ninstitutions, foundations, regional-owned enterprises, communities, the\nyounger generation, and the public, the DKI Jakarta Provincial\nGovernment simultaneously planted 24,310 mangrove seedlings across five\nmain locations in the Jakarta area.<\/p>",
