"Supported by Yayasan Hasanah, the Roots & Shoots Malaysia Awards (RASMA) started in 2019 with only 36 youth volunteers and a handful of NGO partners. Now, it has expanded to provide 317 youths with a platform to volunteer with 51 NGOs of their choice, and clocked in more than 30,000 hours of volunteerism.

Inspired by the positive influence of Dr. Jane Goodall and the Roots & Shoots' ethos, Tee Pee started the award programme to instil hope and encourage Malaysian youths to go beyond awareness and bring positive change to their environment and communities.

Through RASMA, Chin Wen had the opportunity to volunteer with The Datai Langkawi in 2022 upon which she was offered a job as a Naturalist at the esteemed resort, and recently promoted as The Datai Pledge Manager. As a budding conservationist, Chin Wen envisions a future where environmental conservation becomes second nature to all."
