PETALING JAYA: Sunway Real Estate Investment Trust (Sunway REIT) has embarked on a sustainability campaign, “Clean Air: A Smoke Free Environment Project” at Sunway Pyramid Shopping Mall.
As part of the effort, three local artists who have been internationally-recognised for their murals and installations, Kenji Chai, Caryn Koh and Louise Low, came together to support the campaign and create public awareness on smoking hazards.
“We would like to encourage the public to come join us in this journey to make Sunway City Malaysia the first sustainable and smoke-free city by 2018, where all Sunway-owned premises within the township will be declared smoke-free.
“We hope that the beauty of these masterpieces will discourage smoking in those areas and inspire our community to help us clear the air of cigarette-smoke for the 200,000 people, including 40,000 students, who reside within the city,” said Sunway REIT chief executive officer Datuk Jeffrey Ng Tiong Lip in a statement.
Besides the art pieces, the campaign also invites active participation from the public to make pledges on www.sunwaycleanairproject.com. The first 400 pledgers will receive 500 Sunway Pals points.
During the campaign, which runs from May 8 to June 30 2018, members of the public are also invited to sign up for the fully-sponsored Sunway REIT Smoking Cessation Programme, which is supported by Sunway Medical Centre and Johnson and Johnson.
Participants will receive free active behavioural counselling by Sunway Medical Centre’s professionals. The pilot run of the project is open to 250 participants.
For the first week of the campaign, May 8 to 14, Sunway REIT will also be conducting various activities for the public at the LG2 Orange Avenue, Sunway Pyramid shopping mall.
Shoppers can drop by for complimentary consultations for a smoking cessation programme and smokerlyzer tests. Consultation sessions will be held from 11.30 am to 2.30 pm on Monday to Friday and 11.30 am to 3.30 pm on Saturday and Sunday.
