Nature and Biodiversity

Corporate Commitment on Biodiversity

As we realized that biodiversity is the precious assets of all human beings and that protection or restoration of ecosystems can help mitigate the climate crisis, with positive significance to agricultural development, food and water issues, health and hygiene as well as sustainable economic development, we make public “Sinyi Group Statement of Biodiversity Commitment”, demonstrating our determination to conservation of the nature. We are continuously in search of and in support of natural-based solutions (NbS), with the hope to make a humble contribution to the prosperous and sustainable environment where the present and future generations live.

Note: According to The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), Nature-based Solutions are actions to protect, sustainably manage, and restore natural and modified ecosystems that address societal challenges effectively and adaptively, simultaneously benefiting people and nature. The major challenges include climate change, disaster risk reduction, food and water security, biodiversity loss and human health, which are critical to sustainable economic development.

Nature and Biodiversity Initiatives –
responding to international and domestic trends

We joined the "Taiwan Nature Positive Initiative" that was initiated by the Business Council for Sustainable Development (BCSD) in 2022, in the hope to achieve the vision of harmonious coexistence with nature, jointly in response to the goal of Net Positive by 2030 and Full recovery by 2050. Sinyi Group is not only one of the founding members, but also the only member from the real estate sector. We aim to make more substantive contributions to Taiwan's biodiversity together with the partners.

Biodiversity Actions –
linking local communities to the environment

We have been building relationship with local communities for a long time. Besides humanistic care, we have also invested in environmental protection and restoration. We have been participating in “100 Species for Conservation Action” held by Dr. Cecilia Koo Botanic Conservation Center (KBCC). We have found appropriate communities for restoring five endangered plants. Sinyi Volunteers went to Changhua for a special event held by the Flower Tree Bank—the wild release of the world's largest moth "Emperor Moth", and the planting of Taiwan's native species of cinnamon laurel.

In addition, we respond to the International Net Zero Emissions Initiative. We have planned to make the Mengalum Island of Malaysia the first zero-carbon island with a new form of tourism. All developments on the island from construction, operation, and demolition will be net-zero emissions. Now we are doing the restoration on and around the island as well as investigating proper natural based solutions locally. Currently, we are still in a stage of soil improvement and hydrological investigation and continuing to carry out ecological restoration on the island and the surrounding sea areas. We are planning a new type of tourism model since we want to bring tourists an innovative and sustainable experience in order to promote the concept of net zero from our services.
