A brief summary of our 2021 YLA programme


Project Langit (YLA 2021 Winning Team)
ProjectLangit is a digital marketing social enterprise aimed at empowering B40 entrepreneurs to break free from poverty through digitalisation of their businesses.
Believing that B40 entrepreneurs are the champions of the nation, ProjectLangit reinvests 100% of their revenue to help aspiring B40 entrepreneurs and to uproot poverty in Malaysia.
