An extended agreement has been signed by PCS’s Executive Director Elbuchel Sadang and Kayangel Governor Richard Ngiraked to sustain the restoration efforts for the distinctive atoll forests of Kayangel. This initiative comes 11 years after the devastating impact of super typhoon Haiyan, which wiped out the forests on the atoll islands. Subsequent reconstruction efforts introduced invasive plants that quickly spread and caused damage to native flora, particularly affecting Ngeriungs Island, the State’s Bird Sanctuary.
