PETALING JAYA: OSK Property has launched the Iringan Bayu Wetland Park in Seremban to encourage a healthy ecosystem that supports conservation and appreciation of wetlands within the neighbourhood.

       Chief executive officer Ong Ghee Bin said the 22-acre wetland park is expected to draw 35,000 visitors this year and comprises three important elements that make the park one of a kind – wetland, park and art.

       “The wetland section, originally created as a rainwater retention pond, is now the home of 200,000 wetland plants and 972 trees of 60 different species and has to-date attracted more than eight bird species and 11 local fishes.
