As a plantation company, KPL remains committed to ensuring sustainability by boosting growth through the creation of economic, environmental and social stability. Economic sustainability, which translates into financial sustainability of the Company, creates economic opportunities for the communities while bringing in economic benefits to the stakeholders. Being an agriculture based company, its financial sustainability is inseparably intertwined with environmental sustainability, which in turn requires the Company to conserve and protect the natural environment and the ecosystem. This of course requires the sustainable use of land and water, and application of sustainable agricultural practices, including conserving natural resources, to support the Company’s business activities. Social sustainability is encouraged by the Company through community interaction within and around the plantation estates. As people living in the surrounding villages remain an integral part of our business, we believe that interaction with these communities undoubtedly fosters social unity. Besides, being a government owned Company, we remain committed to good governance as we are subject to public accountability. In this regard, we strive for good governance through the application of transparent processes, regular monitoring, evaluating and reporting to prevent corruption and misconduct.
