Powering Progress and Impact Through DEI
In a wonderful display of corporate commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, Berjaya Corporation Berhad recently hosted members of the 30% Club Malaysia Steering Committee for a special dual celebration honouring International Women’s Day and Ramadan.
The event, held at the Berjaya Times Square Hotel, brought together champions of DEI in a warm atmosphere of camaraderie and shared purpose. Several 30% Club Malaysia SteerCo members gathered to enjoy the hospitality of Berjaya Corp, led by their Council Member Yong Chai Ming and an enthusiastic team representing various divisions of the organisation.
The evening served as both a celebration and a platform for meaningful exchange on progress toward DEI in Corporate Malaysia leadership. All were treated to an engaging sharing by 30% Club Malaysia Council Member Yong Chai Ming, General Manager – Group HR, who detailed Berjaya Corp’s impressive DEI journey to date.
The presentation highlighted notable achievements and outlined ambitious initiatives planned to further advance diversity within their corporate structure. As a Corporate Advocate, Berjaya continues to demonstrate exemplary leadership in translating commitment into tangible action.
30% Club Malaysia Chair, Nurul A’in Abdul Latif, also shared updates on the 30% Club Malaysia’s journey. With our 10th anniversary approaching this year, it was the perfect moment to reflect on how far we’ve come while energising our collective vision for the future. The presentation underscored the remarkable progress made in increasing women’s representation on boards in Malaysia while acknowledging the work that remains ahead.
Beyond the sharing, the evening was a delightful social gathering. Everyone enjoyed flowing conversations, shared hearty laughter, and savoured a scrumptious spread of the Ramadan buffet.
These moments of connection remind us that behind the statistics and strategies are passionate individuals united by a common cause.
The successful event exemplifies how corporate advocacy and supportive partnerships continue to drive the mission of the 30% Club Malaysia forward.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to Berjaya Corporation for hosting this memorable celebration and for their ongoing commitment to advancing gender diversity in Malaysian leadership.
As we celebrate our 10th anniversary this year, we look forward to more such collaborations that both honour our progress and inspire future action within Corporate Malaysia.
