Image
Twenty years ago, high school student Rizaly Lim and her four siblings would watch in awe every time they pass by the construction of the first SM City in her hometown Sta.

Malaysian singer-songwriter liesl-mae opens up about depression on her new single ‘Raincloud’

Image
Malaysia-based singer-songwriter liesl-mae reflects on her struggles with mental health in her compelling new single “Raincloud.” Addressing the cyclical nature of depression and its damning effects, the inspiring young artist hopes to engage in a discussion to dismantle the social stigmas surrounding mental health.  The song begins with a posed question: “When was the last time you felt happy?” On the surface, it is a seemingly benign inquiry. However, unable to respond, the question initiates an unexpected internal monologue traversing the uniquely human blight of depression and anxiety. Artfully woven together with vivid metaphor and thoughtful lyricism, liesl-mae puts the feelings of hopelessness into words that creep malignantly into one’s mind – lying restlessly in wake.  Her pristine vocals shine brightly through the track’s guitar-driven melodies, ambient pads, and pulsating basslines. Gradually building up from an intimate, campfire-esque start to a grandiose conclus...

From Bin it Right to #SMWasteFreeFuture: How SM minimizes landfill impact

Image
  The SM Waste-Free Future initiative endeavors to reduce waste generation and increase the rate of diversion. It is not “out of sight, out of mind”; landfills are not just eyesores in remote areas, but they also pose a significant health risk to the communities around them and emit a substantial amount of greenhouse gases from decaying food waste. The RDC, or Recyclable, Disposable, and Compostable bins at SM Supermalls, are not only for show but serve as the start of the journey to achieve a net-zero landfill and beyond. SM has recycled 130,250kg of its internal non-essential documents through its bulk paper recycling program. SM’s environmental programs, such as the monthly Trash to Cash recycling market, continue to support communities towards sustainable living. For recyclable waste, SM has initiatives like the "Trash to Cash" recycling market, which successfully gathers over 1 million kilograms annually of plastic, paper, and other materials for reuse or recycling.

SM City Baguio’s rainwater treatment facility: A model for water sustainability
