Mah Sing Wins Three Awards At Exchange Asia ESG PLUS Awards 2025
KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 12 (Bernama) -- Mah Sing Group Berhad (Mah Sing) has been recognised at the inaugural The Exchange Asia ESG PLUS Awards 2025, clinching two Governance & Ethical Leadership Awards for Corporate Governance & Ethics as well as ESG Reporting & Transparency, and an Environmental Sustainability Award for Sustainable Product Innovation.
The awards ceremony, officiated by Deputy Women, Family and Community Development Minister Datuk Seri Dr Noraini Ahmad, was held here on Wednesday, according to a statement.
It said Mah Sing’s achievements reflect the group’s dedication to integrating responsible governance, environmental stewardship, and transparent disclosures across its property development and manufacturing operations.
These recognitions reinforce the group’s continuous efforts to align its business practices with global sustainability expectations, support national climate goals, and deliver long-term value to its stakeholders.
Mah Sing Group Strategy and Operations director Jane Leong said the awards represent more than recognition, highlighting the responsibility it carries as a property developer in shaping communities and the future.
“Our ESG journey is a continuous one, and we remain committed to driving purposeful transformation that benefits our stakeholders and the environment," she said.
Meanwhile, Mah Sing founder and group managing director Tan Sri Leong Hoy Kum said the recognitions reinforced sustainability as a core pillar of the group’s long-term strategy.
"We are deeply honoured to receive three recognitions from the ESG PLUS Awards 2025. These awards further inspire us to strengthen our internal capabilities, enhance our frameworks, and pursue practical, meaningful ways to contribute positively to the broader sustainability landscape," he said.
The ESG PLUS Awards, organised in partnership with the ESG Association of Malaysia, Convene ESG and Baker Tilly, recognise businesses that demonstrate a strong commitment to ESG principles, creating meaningful impact and driving sustainable transformation.
The statement added that Mah Sing’s governance approach is grounded in a strong commitment to integrity and ethical conduct across all levels of decision-making.
“Aligned with the Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance, the group ensures effective oversight through specialised board committees and strengthened internal controls,” it said, adding that the group also adopts the Global Reporting Initiative Standards and Bursa Malaysia's Sustainability Reporting Guide, and is preparing to transition towards IFRS S1 and S2 requirements under the upcoming National Sustainability Reporting Framework.
It said the group enhances public visibility by showcasing key sustainability metrics and features within its project development sales galleries, offering homebuyers clear and practical insights into the sustainability performance of each development.
“Mah Sing’s commitment to transparency is further demonstrated through its strong FTSE4Good performance, where the group has been accorded a four-star rating by Bursa Malaysia,” it said.
Building on its commitment to responsible growth, it said Mah Sing continues to integrate sustainability into the design and delivery of its developments through its Green Building initiative.
“This initiative represents the group’s approach to product innovation in property development, embedding sustainable features that go beyond regulatory requirements to create greener, healthier, and resilient living environments.
“This is evident in most of our multiple project launches, which feature GreenRE-certified buildings and/or townships. Key design considerations include optimising building orientation to reduce direct sun exposure, incorporating energy-efficient lighting, installing rooftop solar panels, implementing automated waste collection systems, and providing electric vehicle charging stations,” it added.
