“I like nature, that’s why I chose Weihua to start my career,” says Lin Liqiang, a foreman at Meizhou Weihua Fast-growing Forest Co., Ltd. Ling joined the company in 2004 after graduating in Forestry.
“Although patrolling is not an easy task – it’s tiring to climb mountains, – it brings me joy. It’s quite different from an office job, especially when you take a break and enjoy the landscape. My personal favorite spot in the forest is the Qing Liang Shan Reservoir.”
Weihua Fast-growing Forest Co., Ltd. is a company located in southern China. It obtained FSC forest management certification in February 2020, covering 18,300 acres of forests.
“I didn’t understand or notice it before. But now, when I buy furniture and other forest products, I look for the FSC label and pay more attention to my choices in this area. On my patrols, ever since we adopted the FSC requirements, I can see the improvement in forest protection and its landscape, as well as an increase in wild animal traces, such as boar. In places like that, I stop to admire and to take it in, and I feel a sense of accomplishment.”
