Community
Sime Darby Berhad operates in 17 countries and territories with more than 20,000 employees. Together with our families and local communities, we are committed to assisting those within our reach through various initiatives that help inspire and impact change.
Sime Darby creates shared value for society through economic growth and development in countries where the company has direct impact and where stakeholders may have an influence on operations. We realise that we are part of the larger society and mutual growth is important in our journey to ensure the sustainability of our businesses.
Our work with communities involves understanding local needs and finding solutions that can address social or economic issues pertinent to our businesses.
In Malaysia, Tractors Malaysia works with the Sime Darby Foundation, the philanthropic arm of the Sime Darby Group, to provide assistance to communities around our operations.
