Our expertise is also sought after by home-grown clients who want to set themselves apart from the influx of foreign investors and competition flooding the local market.”

A CommitmentTo CareProject CHange

Our Dedication To Impact Lives | 21

Our nation’s growth depends on the human capital it produces. In line with Malaysia’s vision to achieve high-income nation status, Project CHange was conceptualised to aid deserving students who lack the financial means to complete their higher education. Regardless of race and religion, we help connect promising young Malaysians to companies committed to nurturing the future workforce of the nation.

We hope that our collective effort in actualising this scholarship award programme will create a ripple effect where one small change can bring about an enormous, positive impact upon the lives of these students and for the future generation of Malaysia.

You have read about our work culture, that saying about acorns and oaks. Now, through Project CHange, we strive to provide the best environment for acorns to flourish into mighty oaks – to stand tall and reach for the skies.
