It was set up to carry out philanthropic works in education but later extended its remit to include healthcare to improve lives in Asia, particularly in the less developed parts of Southeast Asia. It supports and funds sustainable education and healthcare projects that develop social and human capital. It strives to identify needs and formulate solutions by working with a network of global and regional universities, public institutions, and domain specialists through the sponsorship of policy, pedagogical and clinical research. To promote awareness of pertinent issues, the Foundation also conducts regular public events and workshops where ideas on education, healthcare, science, culture and the environment are presented and discussed.
