Wild Touch Kombucha holds a special place in my heart as our naturally fermented flagship product, crafted with care using local Taiwanese tea and embracing the artisanal home-style process that resonates with my personal journey.This project has been a profound exploration, unraveling the complexities of producing and selling food, offering a unique window into the intricate world of microbiology. Through my experiences, I've witnessed how, when done right, Kombucha transforms into a harmonious blend of organic compounds that contribute more goodness than harm to our bodies.The taste, subtly sweet without an overload of sugar, and the natural bubbliness resulting from fermentation, make it a sensory delight. I've seen it captivate even those unfamiliar with Kombucha, gaining new followers who appreciate its distinctive qualities.

As the founder of Wild Asia, my journey commenced in 2003 with the establishment of this Malaysian-based social enterprise. Over the past decade, our commitment has been unwavering as we delved into the intricacies of sustainable production, educating and supporting producers on the path to RSPO certification. While initially collaborating with major players, our focus gradually shifted to the pivotal role of smaller producers.In this collaborative journey with smaller producers, we discovered the transformative potential of regenerative agriculture. This experience fueled our confidence to pioneer new models for oil palm cultivation, ones that not only enriched biodiversity but also proved economically sound. This spiral of exploration and learning guides our current strategy — a passionate pursuit to accelerate regenerative agriculture in the oil palm industry, aligning with our commitment to sustainable practices.

Embarked on my professional journey as a dedicated volunteer with WWF, actively contributing during both school and post-university years. This early commitment to conservation set the stage for a career focused on people, forests, and protecting natural areas. From conducting field research to absorbing insights as a Scientific Officer, my roles have been shaped by a passion for sustainability. Each step, from WWF to subsequent positions, has deepened my understanding and commitment to meaningful environmental initiatives, guiding me toward making a lasting impact in safeguarding our natural world.
