Wasito
The aridity of the coastal area in Kendal, Central Java, in the mid-2000s drove Wasito (47) to take action. He started planting mangroves on the beach closest to his house. As a result, the mangrove forests are now a natural shield protecting the Kendal coast against environmental disasters.
Wasito actually hails from Demak, also in Central Java. He had moved to Kendal in 1999 because he worked in a shrimp farm company. In Kendal, he met his soul mate, Sulistianingsih. They married in 2002 and live in Kartikajaya village, Patebon district, Kendal, until now.
