YOGYAKARTA: To make Yogyakarta a greener city, Mayor Herry Zudianto started to cultivate 10,000 seeds of various plants in the city, on Sunday.

Herry symbolically handed over the seeds to 45 subdistrict heads who would plant the seeds with residents.

"Hopefully, the additional 10,000 trees will make the city greener. The residents were asked to get involved to keep the trees from dying," Herry said.

The seeds will be planted along the city's main roads, such as Jl. Parangtritis, Jl. Gondomanan and Jl. Mataram. - JP
