SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2018

The Titian Samara Programme is designed to help

bring out the best in the students we work with,

whilst providing them with mentoring, guidance

and emotional support. We are delighted to benefit

from the Group’s sponsorship of this programme,

as it has provided us with an achievable set of aims

that are benefitting hundreds of young people

Community

We believe in contributing economically and socially to the

well-being of the communities where we conduct business.

Supporting economic and social development of the

communities in which we operate is the right thing to do for our

communities as well as for our businesses.

As part of our commitment in strengthening the local socio-

economic base, we provide jobs opportunities for the

communities near our projects. In tandem, the Group hires

and trains local employees at our jobsites, providing technical

training and skills to improve workers’ wage-earning potential.

We also support local suppliers and entrepreneurs through

purchasing local goods and services. A successful example

of this can be seen in Indonesia where 89.8% of contracts for

goods and services have been awarded to small and medium-

sized local companies. In addition, 23.3% of the FFB processed

by the palm oil mill are purchased from smallholder farmers.

Apart from building and furnishing the mosques and schools

located within and around the plantation with the necessary

amenities, our Indonesian subsidiary, PTNJL also funds the

monthly allowance of teachers and imams.

During the year we renewed our sponsorship of Titian Samara

Programme by Persatuan Al-Hunafa.

TheNGO’smission is to help secondary studentswith academic

and social problems to create a better future for themselves by

developing their life skills such as confidence, leadership, and

communication through personal development programmes

and mentoring. During the year, the programme focuses on 4

schools in Klang, Selangor and 1 school in Kelantan namely,

SMK Raja Lumu, SMK Pandamaran Jaya, SMK Telok Gadong

and SMK Kampung Jawa and SMK Laloh, Kuala Krai.
