SARAWAK-BASED social enterprise WormingUp hasn’t been resting on its laurels since winning the Star Golden Hearts Award (SGHA) in 2021.

Co-founder and entrepreneur Jeff Wee, whose company transforms food waste into fertiliser, has been working towards expanding the organisation’s operations, focusing on a new site in Asajaya, a 50-minute drive from the state capital, Kuching.
