Kuala Lumpur 23 December 2025 — Yayasan Pusat Polisi dan Hal Ehwal Ekonomi Malaysia (PEACE) has been honoured as the Best Foundation in the category of Government Engagement and Publications at the NGO Malaysia Gala Awards 2025.

The award was presented by His Excellency the Yang di-Pertua Negeri of Melaka, marking a significant national recognition of Yayasan PEACE’s sustained contribution to public policy discourse, integrity, governance, and strategic thought leadership in Malaysia.

Recognition of Intellectual Commitment and Governance Excellence

Since its establishment, Yayasan PEACE has been committed to serving as a policy and ideas platform grounded in values, ethics, integrity, and national interest. Through active engagement with government agencies, policymakers, academia, and civil society, PEACE has played a bridging role between ideas, institutions, and implementation.

In the area of publications, Yayasan PEACE has consistently produced books, policy papers, and public intellectual works that enrich Malaysia’s governance discourse—anchored in tradition, historical consciousness, and contemporary national realities.

An Honour That Carries Responsibility

On behalf of the Board of Trustees and the Management of Yayasan PEACE, this award is regarded not merely as an accolade, but as a moral responsibility and institutional trust to continue contributing with greater clarity of purpose, principled engagement, and intellectual courage.

This recognition is also dedicated to all stakeholders, strategic partners, contributors, and supporters who have journeyed with Yayasan PEACE in advancing its mission and national agenda.

Moving Forward: Serving the Nation with Ideas and Integrity

This award serves as renewed motivation for Yayasan PEACE to further strengthen its role in:
• Advancing a values-based and integrity-driven public policy ecosystem
