Kasinin was motivated to work on river conservation after seeing the effects of the 2015 earthquake on the river next to village leading him to also participate in the RIVER Ranger programme to learn about river monitoring.

Community Engagement and Education (CEE) programme by WWF-Malaysia focuses on engaging, collaborating and empowering local communities towards sustainable livelihood options and conservation of species and natural resources.
