The Labuan Development Foundation is an organization established for Labuan citizens with additional support in 5 core areas of Education, Youth & Sports, Arts & Culture, Economy & Entrepreneurship, and Charity & Environment. Our support is not of individual interest but rather to the development of NGO’s organizations involved in the aforementioned areas. Cooperation is better than being alone because the ultimate goal is holistic and pragmatic human development. The support is not solely focused on finance but YPL’s role is to provide physical assistance, ideas, and even processing of existing resources to enable the development goals to achieve the goals and inspiration of the latest community.

The success of YPL depends not only on us in this organization, but also on the support and belief of Labuan people in the direction of making Labuan prosperous. I am confident that the YPL team will now be able to provide a new generation of ideas in carrying out this responsibility with our beloved Labuan brothers.
