Advancing the Way People Live,

Sustainably

We believe that corporate responsibility and profitability can go hand in hand; that we win by rising to the call of supporting and protecting our stakeholders – customers, staff, shareholders as well as the communities in which we operate.

Our business model and culture are centred around an enduring purpose: to advance the way people live, sustainably. Sunway’s deeply held core values of Integrity, Humility and Excellence ground our actions and strategies. We embed the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN-SDGs) and ESG considerations into our pursuit, cementing our extensive reputation in offering excellent products and services, facilitating innovations as well as accelerating social impact that turns complex global challenges into lasting, positive change.

At Sunway, we are committed to playing our part in building a more equitable and resilient world – today and for generations to come.

Community Enrichment

Leveraging Our Expertise to Address Community Priorities

We empower our people across the organisation to proactively lead the change through strategic community activities. Partnering with NGOs, we strive to achieve profound and lasting impact by giving back in ways that align with the unique needs of our local communities, with special emphases on festive outreach, food aid programmes and relief efforts.

Festive Cheers

Sunway’s signature Festive Cheer series takes national festivities, specifically Chinese New Year, Hari Raya and Deepavali, beyond office parties and time off work. Over the years, the campaign has evolved into a corporate tradition and, since 2014, brought cheer to tens of thousands of underprivileged individuals nationwide through various charitable actions.

Food Aid Programmes

Through Food Aid programmes such as Sunway Food Bank, Rise Against Hunger Meal Packing and #ZeroFoodWastage, we are making steady progress in addressing nationwide food security concerns. Strategic coordination alongside various non-profit organisations has accelerated our efforts towards ending hunger among the impoverished, as well as achieving zero food waste by transferring surplus food items from our hotels to the charitable meal system.

Emergency Relief Efforts

Our community enrichment roadmap also calls for a swift response to macro-level crises such as floods and the COVID-19 pandemic. Coordinating closely with governmental and non-governmental organisations, we have committed both monetary and physical aids to a range of relief and recovery efforts. In March 2021, Sunway committed the Sunway Pyramid Convention Centre rent-free for 11 months in support of the National COVID-19 Immunisation Programme. This is Sunway’s commitment – to give back to society and contribute to nation-building.

Education

Shifting National Narrative Through Education Equity

As Malaysia’s largest education-focused social enterprise, the Jeffrey Cheah Foundation underscores Sunway’s unwavering focus on bridging achievement gaps and bringing quality education within reach for individuals facing ongoing barriers to learning opportunity. Our strategy expands upward to benefit schools and tertiary institutions, and outward across a multitude of underserved minorities.

Sunway-Oxbridge Essay Competition

As Malaysia’s longest-running and most coveted English essay competition, the Sunway-Oxbridge Essay Competition identifies and celebrates young writers by providing cash awards and bursaries since 2014. The annual contest seeks to cultivate English language proficiency among Malaysian students and has received original entries from more than 22,000 participants, including rural schools, throughout the nation.

Sunway READ Programme

Through Sunway READ, which stands for “Reading Enhances Aspiration and Drive”, we pledge to build and refurbish 50 libraries by 2024. One of them was recently built in Desa Mentari, in close collaboration with Friends to Mankind and MyPJ. More than stewards of books and information, we envision the libraries as community hubs from which individuals of all walks of life can benefit.

Sunway L.I.N.E. Programme

Smartphones and internet connection remain out of reach for certain segments of society. Through Sunway L.I.N.E. – “Learn. Innovate. Nurture. Evolve.” – we support the extension of computer access and computer literacy training among the B40 communities so that every student has access and can be part of the digital economy.

Healthcare

Delivering Meaningful Impact on the Healthcare Frontline

Urbanisation is changing the way we live and, in some cases, increasing our susceptibility to health-related risks. With the expansion of Sunway Healthcare Group, we see it as our obligation to shed light on, and to develop solutions that mitigate existing challenges within the healthcare value chain, including the growing prevalence of modern diseases and inadequate medical access.

Sunway The Good Run

We have expanded our social impact mission to include inspiring people through running. Kicked off in 2017, Sunway The Good Run – with its unifying nature – has served as a platform for employee and community engagement, health awareness as well as a charity fundraiser. To date, thousands of generous runners have joined us in this biannual event, raising close to half a million Ringgit for the underserved communities.

Sustainable

Development Goals

The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (UN-SDGs) introduced by the United Nations set forth a holistic framework for the mapping and evaluation of our CSR blueprint. The following outlines the UN-SDGs we vigorously and systematically contribute towards, and how our engagement priorities are integrally related to their achievement.
