On 11 February, Sun Lifers gathered at our HQ to usher in the Year of the Horse with joy and festive spirit. The celebration united the Sun Life Malaysia family for a vibrant occasion filled with cultural traditions, delicious food, and memorable moments. The festivities began on M Floor with a warm welcome speech from our President & Country Head, Ho Teck Seng, followed by the traditional lou sang toss that symbolises abundance and good fortune for the year ahead. The event was also graced by Randy Lianggara, President of Emerging Markets, Sun Life Asia, alongside members of the management committee and Sun Lifers from across departments.
Sun Lifers then enjoyed a festive buffet on Level 1 featuring a spread of seasonal favourites, while a vibrant lion dance performance filled the space with energy and excitement. It was a lively moment for Sun Lifers to reconnect, celebrate recent accomplishments, and share the festive spirit together as one Sun Life Malaysia family.

In the spirit of giving, we are bringing back the Baju Raya Lama Baharu campaign, continuing our commitment to embed sustainability into cherished Raya traditions while uplifting communities in need.
Running from 13 February to 31 March, the 2026 edition builds on last year’s encouraging response and expands beyond the Klang Valley to reach Penang and Johor. This year, we aim to benefit 300 recipients from elderly care centres and children’s homes.
In collaboration with returning partners AEON BiG and KLOTH Cares, and with FedEx joining as this year’s logistics partner, the campaign makes it even easier for Malaysians to contribute. A total of 18 dedicated drop-off bins have been placed across selected AEON BiG outlets, Sun Life Malaysia offices, and selected FedEx locations.
Malaysians are encouraged to join the initiative by donating their clean and wearable baju melayu, baju kurung, and samping in any style, colour, or size. All donated garments will be collected and sorted ahead of the festive season before being distributed to beneficiaries — ensuring they can celebrate Raya with dignity and joy.
Sun Lifers, let’s continue the spirit of giving. Drop off your pre-loved Raya outfits at our collection points and help create brighter celebrations for our communities.

Sun Life Malaysia recently introduced Sun Save Future, a guaranteed-acceptance savings and protection plan designed to give policyholders earlier access to their savings while supporting long-term financial goals.
Unlike traditional plans that lock funds away until maturity, Sun Save Future offers guaranteed yearly cash payouts of up to 50% of annual premiums, starting from the end of the second policy year. This provides families with added flexibility to manage rising living costs while continuing to build future wealth.
Insights from Sun Life’s Retirement Reimagined study show that 64% of Malaysians expect to work beyond retirement age, with income needs cited as the main reason. These findings highlight the growing demand for financial solutions that offer both resilience and flexibility.
With flexible premium payment terms ranging from five to 30 years, coverage of up to 30 years, and no medical underwriting required, Sun Save Future makes savings and protection more accessible across generations.
