PENAMPANG: The launching of a mobile recycling centre here will serve as a platform to create awareness on sustainable waste management. Friends of Village Development (Tonibung) director Adrian Lasimbang said about 40 per cent of rubbish can be recycled before it is discarded into the Kayu Madang landfill in Telipok. He added that despite efforts from the Kota Kinabalu City Hall (DBKK) and other non-governmental organisations to encourage waste segregation and offer payments for recyclable items, efforts have been futile.

Over here, they have a second hand shop where you can buy good items for a low price to support their charity. So many nice stuff but people threw them away to declutter.

Vision
PACOS Trust would like to see peaceful indigenous communities, united and well equipped with the knowledge and expertise to manage their resources and opportunities to support a comfortable life.
Mission
PACOS Trust’s mission is to improve the overall quality of life of indigenous communities.

Ensure that indigenous communities have legal title to their customary land (NCR) and the right to use resources in other traditional areas
Strengthen indigenous knowledge systems in the management of natural resources
Strengthen positive values, culture, language, and belief systems of indigenous peoples
Strategies
PACOS Trust uses two main approaches: (i) develop integrated human resources and (ii) establish and strengthen Community Organizations, to enhance the ability of indigenous communities to act collectively on their own.
PACOS Trust also continues to support a network of indigenous organisations that are fighting for ancestral land claims and their natural resources. PACOS Trust acts as an intermediary between community organisations and foreign entities whether government agencies, private companies or non-governmental organisations (NGO).
