Teekay Singapore Plants Endangered Rosewood Trees

May 23, 2015

Employees and Families Join Garden City Funds’ Plant-A-Tree Program

Teekay Singapore employees and families participated in a tree planting session on May 23, 2015 in beautiful Bedok Park. The Plant-A-Tree Program is a monthly occurrence put on by Garden City Funds. The program operates in many parks throughout Singapore and has become a platform for organizations and individuals to participate in the greening of their city. The trees planted in Bedok park are called “Dalbergia Oliveri“, however they are more commonly known as members of the Rosewood tree family. Due to their beautiful red color, the Dalbergia Oliveri was labeled an endangered specie in 1998 by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources in Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam. Some major congratulations are in order for those who braved the rain to take part in this event. As these trees were planted with true #TeekaySpirit, we are sure to see the the trees blossom soon.
