As a loyal Malaysian brand, the jewellers supports Rimau. efforts NGO’s to rescue endangered Malayan Tigers and raise awareness about the issue.

Dato’ Sri Meer HABIB, Executive Chairman of the HABIB Group

“Recently, there have been talks concerning poaching on wildlife, particularly Malayan Tigers, and this concerns us,” said Dato’ Sri Meer HABIB, Executive Chairman of the HABIB Group. We believe that our gift will enable Rimau.NGO to increase their efforts in recruiting additional rangers and patrollers to keep poachers at bay, and that, most significantly, this campaign will raise public and corporate awareness.

He went on to say, “We launched this collection to exhibit the beauty of this animal and to educate Malaysians about the significance of tiger conservation.”

Furthermore, he emphasised that it is critical to act immediately and that Rimau would be the greatest partner to help this cause because they are solely dedicated to tiger protection.

Lara Ariffin, The President of Rimau.NGO

The Malayan Tiger has long been considered as the country’s defining symbol, and its extinction would be a loss of national pride and identity.

The President of Rimau.NGO, Lara Ariffin said, “There are only 150 of these endangered species left in our Malaysian jungles. We hope this effort will raise awareness among our community on the importance of protecting and preserving our Malayan tiger’ for the future generation.”   

HABIB created an iconic 999 gold wafer coin showing the Malayan Tiger, wrapped in red and gold packaging, to monumentalise the Chinese New Year Zodiac 2022, the tiger.
