Dorsett Grand Subang Champions Sustainability and Community Empowerment Through Upcycled Creations
17/10/2025
Behind every pouch and organizer are B40 families, single parents, and Orang Asli artisans. By creating opportunities, Dorsett highlighted that sustainability is not only about the planet, but about people. Each item bears a tag: “Crafters Empowered by Dorsett – With Appreciation to PSJKM Artisans.” This collaboration not only minimizes waste but also supports local artisans and promotes social enterprise development within the community.
“This initiative represents our belief that luxury and sustainability can coexist beautifully,” said Mr. Kumar Renoo, Area General Manager – Malaysia of Dorsett Hospitality International. “By collaborating with PSJKM, we are not only reducing our environmental footprint but also empowering talented women in the local community to showcase their artistry.”
Datin Jasmine Abdullah Heng, Vice Chairman of Dorsett Hospitality International (Malaysia), shared that supporting the single mothers who lovingly craft these charming pieces is Dorsett’s way of empowering women. Having begun at Dorsett Grand Subang, this meaningful initiative has inspired the Dorsett Group to explore expanding the program across all Dorsett Hotels in Malaysia, such as the Dorsett Kuala Lumpur, Dorsett Putrajaya and Dorsett Hartamas. Renowned for her advocacy of women’s empowerment and charitable causes, Datin Jasmine continues to be a leading voice for women in hospitality, business, and the creative industries.
As Dorsett Grand Subang continues to align with Dorsett Hospitality International’s “Stay Vibrant” philosophy, this project marks another meaningful step toward responsible hospitality and purposeful partnerships.
