Secarik Sore di Tepi Telaga


Riak telaga, semburat cahaya, lalu kayuhmu hendak kemana?

Save Belitong Campaign


“Save Belitong” is a cause to gather support from people all over the world to SAVE THE SEA OF BELITONG FROM SEA MINING.

Belitong Island or Billiton is an Island in Indonesia blessed with heavenly beautiful white sandy beaches, and hundreds of granite boulders decorating the crystal clear sea water. Home for magnificent coral reefs and diverse sea biota, the sea around Billiton has nourished the people in the island. The harmony of this nature is threatened by the sea mining activity that currently under planning. The aim of this cause is to make the voice against sea mining in Belitong majority so that the government has no reason not to stop this mining plan from going on.

Belitung atau Billiton adalah sebuah pulau di bagian barat Indonesia yang dianugerahi keindahan alam berupa pantai-pantai berpasir putih berhiaskan batu-batu granit raksasa. Perairan laut Belitung menjadi surga bagi keanekaragaman hayati seperti ikan, terumbu karang dan biota laut lainnya, yang telah menjadi sumber penghidupan bagi masyarakatnya. Namun, harmoni alam di Belitong saat ini terancam oleh rencana penambangan di laut sekitarnya. Tujuan dari page ini adalah untuk menggalang dukungan menjadikan suara penolakan terhadap penambangan laut sebagai suara mayoritas sehingga bisa didengarkan oleh pemerintah.
