Grateful for a meaningful afternoon with Ain Husniza, founder of , as we explored how social media can be a powerful tool for social impact.
From digital activism to authentic storytelling, the session brought together passionate Sarawakian youth for honest conversations on using our voices responsibly, creatively, and courageously. It was inspiring to see students engage, ask critical questions, and reflect on how online spaces can translate into real-world change.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to the discussion. Conversations like these remind us that youth leadership and collective learning remain central to building a more just and informed society.
At .my, our motion, “Forest Loss, Fragmentation, and Wildlife Decline in Sarawak: A Call for Effective Governance and Conservation Reform,” passed with overwhelming support (52-0-0).
This victory reflects the urgent need to address the crisis: Sarawak has lost a staggering 80% of its primary forest in just four decades.
This destruction is causing several species to lose connected habitats, and is leading to water contamination, disrupted livelihoods, and erosion of cultural identity for indigenous communities.
The motion mandates stronger, rights-based governance, requiring stricter protection of remaining primary forests and the creation of wildlife corridors.
Essential actions include strengthening the recognition and protection of indigenous customary land rights and implementing transparent monitoring and stronger enforcement against illegal logging.
The call to action further prompted questions regarding what CSOs from the rest of Malaysia can do to help and whether the federal government can come in and help, urging a swift collective advocacy effort.

The rise in violence, bullying, and gender-based exploitation in Malaysian schools is a systemic crisis. The recent cases prove the system is broken and failing to protect our children. Announcing slogans only addresses symptoms.
It’s time to rebuild an ecosystem based on trust, safety, and human values.
The Ministry of Education must conduct transparent investigations, hold perpetrators and negligent authorities accountable, and the Minister must accept full responsibility.

Young people are often hailed as “leaders of tomorrow,” yet too often left out of shaping today’s decisions. This event is about closing that gap! Empowering youth voices, highlighting their impact, and driving inclusion in leadership, policy, and civic spaces.
Be part of this inspiring session with Dr. Jawing Chunggat, Sulie Abell, and Melvin Jangga, as they share powerful insights on youth empowerment, leadership, and creating impact today.
