Director of climate change adaptation, mitigation and coordination

Environmental protection is a shared responsibility that unites individuals, communities, institutions, and organizations toward a common goal—a safe, healthy, and sustainable future for all.

As the Head of the Environmental Protection Department, I extend my sincere appreciation to every citizen, community group, educational institution, industry partner, and civil society organization that contributes to protecting our environment. Your awareness, cooperation, and commitment play a vital role in preserving our natural resources and improving environmental quality.

Our department is dedicated to protecting air, water, land, and biodiversity through sound policies, scientific approaches, and active public participation. We strive to promote sustainable development while ensuring that environmental protection remains at the core of social and economic progress.

The environmental challenges we face today—such as climate change, pollution, and resource depletion—cannot be addressed by one entity alone. They require collective action, responsible behavior, and strong partnerships across all sectors of society. By working together, sharing knowledge, and adopting environmentally responsible practices, we can create lasting positive change.

I encourage everyone to actively engage in environmental protection efforts, support sustainable initiatives, and inspire others to care for our planet. Together, we can build a cleaner, greener, and more resilient environment for present and future generations.

Thank you for your continued cooperation and dedication to environmental stewardship.
