SINGAPORE and\u00a0MALAYSIA\u00a0(March\u00a030,\u00a02026)\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\u2013 <\/span>Vantage Data Centers, a leading global provider of hyperscale data center campuses, today announced a partnership with the Malaysia Forest Fund (MFF), an agency under the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability of Malaysia (NRES), to strengthen the efforts to protect and conserve Malaysia\u2019s forests while delivering tangible benefits to local communities in Selangor. Through this collaboration, Vantage will contribute to the Penjaga Gunung (Mountain Guardian) project, one of the key initiatives under the Forest Conservation Certificate (FCC) protocol managed by the Malaysia Forest Fund.<\/p>\n

His Highness\u202fCrown Prince of Selangor<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Tengku Amir Shah\u00a0Ibni\u00a0Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah Alhaj\u00a0<\/span>and YB Dato\u2019 Sri Arthur Joseph Kurup, <\/span>Minister of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability<\/span>,\u00a0witnessed\u00a0the\u00a0conservation\u00a0agreement\u00a0exchange\u00a0between Vantage Data Centers, Malaysia Forest Fund\u00a0and Your Idea Maker for\u00a0<\/span>the implementation of the Penjaga Gunung project in Selangor. The initiative covers approximately 108,000 hectares of the Selangor Royal Heritage Forest area and engages villages from the Orang Asli community. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Penjaga Gunung project aims to foster environmental stewardship among the youth of the Orang Asli, the Indigenous peoples of Peninsular Malaysia, while preserving their cultural heritage and creating sustainable livelihoods for the community. Through structured program and certified skills development, participants will be trained to become nature guides and community rangers, enabling them to develop village-based eco-tourism and conservation services that generate long-term income streams. This new generation of forest guardians will be equipped with essential knowledge to enhance protection of Selangor\u2019s forest reserves and biodiversity while supporting habitat restoration to strengthen ecosystem resilience.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span>Our support for Penjaga Gunung\u202fturns conservation into high-caliber, meaningful career opportunities. We are shaping a future where sustainable livelihoods and professional skills development go hand in ha<\/span>nd with\u00a0<\/span>protecting the planet, ensuring that environmental sustainability is guided by the wisdom of protecting indigenous cultural heritage,\u201d <\/span>said Fitri Abdullah<\/span>, country managing director, Malaysia of Vantage Data Centers. \u201cVantage is committed to building and operating our hyperscale digital infrastructure responsibly.
