On 19th June 2013, Albert Teo, the Chairman of Borneo Ecotourism, Solutions and Technologies (BEST) Society launched the Organic Farming Project which took place at Kg Rampai Besar, Kudat, Sabah, Malaysia. The launching coincided with the World Environment Day in 5th June.

Thanks to the grant from Shell, ten families were selected to participate in this project. They are Freslie Bin Noyet, Marajun Bin Mulihin, Katinah Binti Lanyin, Rambus @ Rens Bin Soborong, Taisung Bin Umat, Tingkong Bin Umat, Salleh Bin Ng Kham Fatt, Jomil Bin Ojumpa, Disin B. Mulihin and Fred Bin Olinggang. A total of RM6,000.00 seed funds were distributed among them, of which each family received RM600.00. The balance of the grant will be used in later stage, which would include site visit and seminars.

Among those present at the launching were the representative from Sikuati Health Clinic and 26 students with their teachers from SMK Sikuati. Two speakers were invited to give talks on organic farming and the benefits of organic farming. BEST Society will continue to work and collaborate with other relevant agencies such as the Agriculture and Kudat Health Department and individuals for education, motivation, technical workshops and site visits to other organic farms in the coming months.
