Employees from Tasek Corporation, a subsidiary of Hong Leong Asia (HLA), recently visited Xingnan Primary School in Singapore to gain insights into its successful Youth4Planet Challenge—a collaborative programme with HLA aimed at raising environmental awareness among young students.

Youth4Planet is part of the broader BeyondHLA initiative, which champions corporate social responsibility across three key pillars: Sustainable Cities and Communities, Enabling Solutions for Healthier Environments and Communities, and Educating Future Generations. The initiative reflects HLA’s ongoing commitment to sustainability, employee engagement, and community support.

During the visit, the Tasek team learned about the school’s various sustainability efforts, which include recycling projects and initiatives designed to shape students’ thinking around long-term impact in areas such as the built environment and transportation. The visit was both insightful and inspiring. Energised by the experience, Tasek hopes to be able to implement similar initiatives by working with schools in Ipoh, Malaysia, to nurture sustainability awareness among Malaysian students.
