Humane Society International (HSI), extend our heartfelt congratulations to the newly formed Malaysia Cage Free Egg Producer Organisation, officially established on 29 August 2023, with the registration number PPM-016-10-29082023. This milestone marks a significant step forward for the animal welfare movement in Malaysia, particularly in the cage-free egg sector.

Guided by the experienced leadership of Senior Advisor on Farm Animal Welfare, Policy & Engagement, Dr. Saravanakumar S. Pillai, the organisation brings together key stakeholders committed to advancing the welfare of farm animals. Under the stewardship of Chairperson Shunmugam Sethuraman, Secretary Haraveen Rajamurthi, Treasurer Meor Ezree, and supported by a dedicated team of 10 members, the organisation is set to play a pivotal role in advocating for the rights and interests of cage-free egg producers across Malaysia.

The formation of this organisation signifies a collective effort by producers to elevate standards, ensure animal welfare, and foster better engagement with government agencies. As a voice for the country's cage-free egg producers, the organisation will work diligently to advocate for policies that not only benefit producers but also align with global animal welfare standards.

HSI recognises the importance of this achievement and looks forward to supporting the Malaysia Cage Free Egg Producer Organisation in its future endeavours. Together, we share the vision of creating a higher welfare and sustainable farming system that prioritises animal welfare and ensures the success of cage-free egg production in Malaysia.

Congratulations once again to all involved in this remarkable initiative!
