• Sunway’s Lunar New Year video, “Sowing Seeds of Prosperity” underscores the meaningful connection between living sustainably and a prosperous new year.

• As we wrap up Lunar New Year with Chap Goh Mei, we continue to spread the joy of organic farming, providing a pertinent solution to the issues of rising costs of living and climate change.

Our video tells the story of Xiao Wei meeting Ahmad, from whom she eagerly learns the contentment behind growing their own crops, together with a group of friends that they met along the way.

In this heartwarming tale, they learn to revel in the joy of organic farming and savour the produce together with their loved ones — empowering their parents, families, and communities to do the same.

Xiao Wei (left) and Ahmad (right) are filled with joy as they work together to water their crops.

These little changemakers are seen adopting organic farming practices such as utilising food waste and dried leaves as compost to reduce food wastage, carbon footprint and minimise greenhouse gas emissions.

As we face the rising costs of living and ongoing climate issues, this video showcases that people from all walks of life (even children!) need to unite in promoting climate-friendly food production through organic farming that ensures food security and decreases CO2 emissions.

At Sunway, we are proud to already be part of this effort with some 150,000kg of pesticide-free vegetables, expected to be produced sustainably by 2030 at our Sunway Organic Farm in Ipoh. We stand by our global commitment towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN-SDGs), including Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities, Goal 12: Responsible Consumption and Production, and Goal 13: Climate Action.
