Rooted in Knowledge. Growing a Better Tomorrow.

MCIS Life and FRIM present a landmark educational book to inspire Malaysians to appreciate and protect our native trees.

Why Native Trees Matter

Trees are essential to human survival and wellbeing. They produce oxygen, clean air and water, provide food and medicines, support biodiversity, and combat climate change. Healthy environment leads to healthy people, aligning with MCIS Life’s purpose of protecting lives.

"As a life insurer, MCIS Life cares about the longnterm wellbeing of people. Trees contribute to a healthy environment, which is an important factor in life insurance risk management. Education is key—teaching children about trees helps shape hearts and minds for a better future,"

Mohammad Nizar Idris, Chairman of MCIS Life

Protecting Lives Means Protecting the Environment That Sustains Us.

From Tree Planting to Tree Education

In 2023, MCIS Life launched the MCIS Life Legacy Forest at Sireh Park, Johor, planting over 6,000 trees. We have also planted trees at Jaya Park, Petaling Jaya as part of our sustainability journey.

While tree planting is important, education ensures long-term care and awareness — turning environmental action into lasting impact.

Caring for Malaysians

Beyond environmental initiatives, MCIS Life is committed to the wellbeing of communities. Through programmes such as the MCIS Life Purple Truck Outreach Programme, we provide free cancer screenings and healthcare awareness to Malaysians nationwide.
