How Do Our Employees Think of the WWF TX2 Program?
16 Aug 2018
Asian Tigers Group is delighted to announce that it is proud to continue partnering with World Wildlife Fund (WWF) as they step into year two of its ambitious commitment toward the TX2 program. This program aims at doubling the number of wild tigers by 2022, coincident with the Chinese Year of the Tiger. The partnership represents both organizations’ commitment to wildlife preservation and sustainable practices.
TX2: The Boldest Ever Conservation Program
WWF launched the TX2 program, making one of the most ambitious, single-species conservation goals ever—trying to double the number of wild tigers from what experts considered to be less than 3,900 individuals in 2010 to more than 6,000 by the year 2022. Doubling their number is crucial because the tiger is an apex predator, and its decrease in number could have detrimental effects in the ecosystem at large.
What Asian Tigers Group Will Do to Support TX2
Asian Tigers Group is a global player in international relocations. Under its corporate social responsibility charter, it has committed to advancing assistance to the TX2 program through financial contributions, conducting awareness programs between the organization’s employees and customers on the topic “Tiger conservation,” and undertaking any specific initiatives as and when called for by WWF. So the partnership would reflect very well on the company in keeping with about the only tenets of environmentally and socially responsible operation.
Key to all these efforts is the involvement of Asian Tigers Group’s people. The company believes that real change happens from within and that it has really worked hard in engaging the workforce on the TX2 mission. Employees have participated in fundraising initiatives, awareness campaigns, and volunteer programs initiated by WWF. Their stance and subtle zeal could be captured through testimonials and growing results.

Many members of the staff are very proud and happy to be engaged with an organization that takes such an active part in wildlife conservation. Gordon Bell, Chairman of the Asian Tigers Group said, “Our partnership with WWF is an excellent opportunity to enable the Asian Tiger Fund to have a great impact. We are confident that by combining our resources and talents, we can provide a boost to the TX2 goal of doubling wild tigers.”
Another employee, Lydia Cheung, Asian Tigers Group Business Process Director, shared, “I think it’s good news that we are supporting an organization as big as WWF, doing a little bit and getting the word out to make sure that you know we are protecting planet for the future.”
Activities and Initiatives
The activities Asian Tigers Group has organized and participated in throughout the year to support the TX2 program take the form of education workshops, tiger-themed events, and collaborative projects with local communities in tiger habitats. In general, these activities help in promoting environmental conservation and raising much-needed awareness about tiger conservation.
Looking Ahead: The Path to 2022
As the collaboration of Asian Tigers with WWF continues to go on, the main focus remains getting to the TX2 goal of 2022. The year ahead will be a time to accelerate the efforts and find more opportunities for employees to engage, raise funds toward this goal, and have broader campaigns of awareness. Truly, both organizations are steadfast in this cause, and they are both very hopeful of the stride that is being taken.
Conclusion
It is this channel of collaboration that presents another crucial aspect in the global context: partnership of Asian Tigers Group with WWF. In a coalition towards the TX2 goal, the partnership is uniquely not just about the doubling of wild tigers but also hopefully as a forerunner in business partnership towards nature conservation. It is the dedication of the employees of the Asian Tigers Group and the visionary projects carried out until today that furnish the cornerstone for a hopeful future for the tigers and our world. Now, before the upcoming Chinese Year of the Tiger, we hope that this splendid animal will again run in the wild to be the icon of strength, tenacity, and shared success in conservation.
