UDA and Perlis Royalty Pedal Forward Community Growth in Kampung Warna-Warni

Imagine a village where the streets are not just paths you walk but canvases that tell stories, where every corner turned is a splash of color that brightens even the gloomiest of days. This is Kampung Warna-Warni Seberang Ramai, a village that recently became the focal point of a remarkable collaboration between UDA Holdings Berhad (UDA), under the Ministry of Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives (KUSKOP), and the Perlis royal family. The ‘UDA Cares Cycling Programme with the Raja Muda of Perlis Tuanku Syed Faizuddin Putra Jamalullail’ is more than just an event; it’s a testament to UDA’s commitment to corporate social responsibility and community well-being, taking place amidst the Perlis Mega MADANI Entrepreneur and Sales Carnival.

Empowering Communities Through Corporate Social Responsibility

The heart of this initiative beats strongly with the spirit of giving and community empowerment. UDA’s generous zakat donation of RM10,000 to Masjid Saidina Abu Bakar As-Siddiq and the additional zakat contributions to 140 asnaf families in the village, facilitated by the Perlis Islamic Religion and Malay Customs Council (MAIPs), underscore a deep commitment to enhancing the community’s well-being. These acts of kindness ripple through the community, bringing hope and support to those in need. The inauguration of ‘Lorong UDA’ by the Raja Muda of Perlis is not merely a ceremony but a step towards beautifying and aiding the local area, aligning with UDA’s LIFE branding and sustainability goals.

Bridging the Gap: Cycling Towards Health and Unity

The ‘UDA Cares Cycling Programme’ does more than promote physical well-being; it serves as a bridge, connecting the community through the simple joy of cycling. UDA’s president emphasized the health benefits of this activity, highlighting how such community programs foster a sense of unity and collective growth. The initiative also saw the Cooperatives Commission of Malaysia awarding a cooperative registration certificate to a local mosque’s cooperative, established to bolster the local Muslim economy. This move not only strengthens community ties but also provides a sustainable pathway for economic growth and self-reliance within the community.

Sustainability and the Future of Kampung Warna-Warni

The ‘UDA Cares Cycling Programme’ is a vivid example of how corporate entities and royalty can come together to make a tangible difference in the lives of the people. The inauguration of ‘Lorong UDA’ in Kampung Warna-Warni Seberang Ramai symbolizes a commitment to not just the present well-being of the community but its future. Through initiatives like these, UDA and its partners are laying down the groundwork for a sustainable, vibrant community that thrives on mutual support, health, and economic empowerment. The beauty of Kampung Warna-Warni Seberang Ramai, enriched by these efforts, continues to shine as a beacon of hope and progress.
