In 2025, SEP sessions were conducted in several regions. On 28–29th April, a total of 28 participants attended the engagement programme in the Balingian Region, specifically at Kuala Tatau 1 Estate and Sg Liuk Estate.




Subsequent sessions were held in the Tinbarap Region on 19th May 2025 and in the Sepakau Region from 21–25th July 2025.

In Sepakau region, smallholder engagement was conducted in a more intimate and practical setting. Smallholders were approached during their routine delivery of Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) to the mill, allowing for timely and relevant discussions within the context of their daily operations. This personalized method of engagement encouraged open dialogue and helped foster stronger relationships between the mill and its suppliers.
During these interactions, smallholders received targeted briefings designed to enhance agricultural practices and support compliance with regulatory requirements.


These engagements are part of the continuous initiative, aimed at strengthening sustainability, regulatory preparedness, and smallholder empowerment through consistent support and knowledge-sharing.
