Far East Organization
Statement of the Company
Far East Organization is a Christian non-profit organization. We want to be a loving community and a grace-filled workplace where Christians and non-Christians may work happily together. We wish to conduct good business and do good in business as we join hands to develop a garden of entrepreneurship that lasts (in honor of our late founder, Mr Ng Teng Fong’s vision).
We accept the everlasting truths of God’s Word as a Christian business. These principles are applied to our company because they are words of life, and business is, after all, a part of life. As a result, we run our company on the firm basis of our principles and our rock, Jesus Christ. Business with Grace, Unity, Integrity, Love, and Diligence are our key principles, which we live out alongside Jesus’ teachings. Far East Organization’s brand is built on our Christian identity.
Adding Value to People’s Lives
Our Christian ideals obligate us as Far East Organization to seek the wellbeing of the city, to support the concerns of the poor, and to love our neighbors.
