Kuala Lumpur, 9 October 2026 – Hektar REIT’s manager has highlighted the planting of 200 mangrove saplings at Kuala Selangor Nature Park, positioning the conservation initiative within its broader environmental, social and governance agenda.

The initiative was carried out in collaboration with the Malaysian Nature Society, with 40 employees from Hektar REIT’s asset and property management companies taking part.
