ASRIA is a BRAND and ENDORSEMENT INSTITUTION







ASRIA’s Global Platform support team will help people who like to know exactly how to earn a sustainable source of income online but without interrupting their routine of works or business activities. As we count on you as one of ASRIA’s Global Platform project stakeholders if you finally take part, you are allowed to use our range of products and services to promote it at a web site. We help you to do the most tedious thing like Web design and manage the entire operation. Eventually, you just wait to receive your profit.

Our pool of CSR expert resources will provide consulting services to help corporations build their Company to become CSR brands and promote world peace through cultivating CSR practice. This is in line with ASRIA’s mission to have 20 million Companies and individuals registered by the year 2015.

HOW?

E-Business is getting popular nowadays. Just ask yourself "Would I give myself permission to be open to new possibilities?" If your answer is yes, you may consider the e-Business opportunity available for you while it will not affect your existing workload and of course it will earn an extra source of income for you now and beyond through a series of profound consultancy and endorsement services developed by ASRIA’s Global Platform since 2004.

Basically this profound model of e-business does not require you to be an expert in the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) field and also it is not necessary for you to handle the day to day business operation because everything will be handled by our academicians, professional experts, researchers and ASRIA management personnel support groups. In other words, the business operation and activities will be reported to you whenever people contact us via your web site portal that we will develop for you to promote it worldwide. Each successful deal will bring you profit as part of return on investment through a system created by ASRIA’s Global Platform. Our wide range of services are indeed a popular demand nowadays.

RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT ANY ENTITIES CULTIVATING CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (CSR) PRACTICE WILL ACHIEVE MORE! There are ways to do it. That is one of the important factors for organisations and individuals look to ASRIA’s Platform for assistance.

Especially after presenting the 1st Ansted Social Responsibility International Award (ASRIA) in 2004, we have been receiving a lot of encouragement, support, and enquiries from various countries, Government agencies, Companies, NGOs, Institutions and individuals at large expressing their interest in establishing long term collaboration with ASRIA.


THE HALLMARK

ASRIA is a BRAND and ENDORSEMENT INSTITUTION. It is a kind of International Certification Institution like ISO accreditation body but we are focused only on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) practicing Companies, Institutions, NGOs and individuals. The Award in recognizing responsible Corporate, Institutions, NGOs and individuals working together in collaboration with all countries around the world on six continents for Promoting World Peace by Cultivating Social Responsibility Practice is one of the keys to our universal mission.

Our target is to get a population of 20 million registered from various parts of the world by year 2015 to become part of the ASRIA’s Global Platform.

In ASRIA’s Global Platform, we always share the need to first VISUALIZE your dream / goal in order to set yourself to DO.... and accomplish results in all its glory & excitement. "If we are to achieve, we must look for the opportunity in every difficulty instead of the difficulty in every opportunity." - Walter E. Cole

Life is full of ups and downs, just as the economy can go from smooth sailing to stormy weather, seemingly without warning. These are our challenges and as we might have already encountered some rainy days... it doesn't mean we have to stand and soak! The best way to alleviate the situation is to challenge ourselves to improve it. To challenge our beliefs that we can weather, even the perfect storm!

Free CSR course




Alternatively for the individual’s keen interest in studying CSR course for FREE

To be entitled for a FREE ‘Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)’ Course which was developed by the ASRIA Board members, you only need to provide one or more ‘CSR practising’ Company names and the Company web site address that have not yet listed by useither a local brand or international brand that is cultivating CSR practise. Upon receiving your information, we will send you a FREE LESSON course of materials in return.

The impact of globalization, internet connectivity, rapid communication and borderless trade phenomena, the leveraging of knowledge through knowledge sharing and management, and self-directed e-learning offer further evidence of the speed and scale of global connectivity and accelerated learning of people that is taking place everywhere. CSR programmes can be delivered by using e-learning platform as well. Hence it saves a lot of hassle and time. The world is now a global village. Hence the future business environment will be challenging for the uninitiated and will demand greater management learning, competencies and leadership in managers of today and tomorrow-if their enterprises and organizations are to be resilient, relevant and rewarding.

Who should learn the CSR practice?




WHO SHOULD LEARN THE CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY PRACTICE?

RESEARCH HAS SHOWED THAT A COMPANY CULTIVATING CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (CSR) PRACTICE WILL ACHIEVE MORE!

The challenge
The theme of Corporate Social Responsibility continues to grow in importance. Sustainable development and business ethics are now high on the public policy agenda.

For business, CSR is enlightened self-interest. Companies exist to make a profit and good CSR pays. Credibility and trust, the focal point of any CSR strategy, are also the key to hiring – and retaining – the best and brightest staff, and the key to branding which consumers and investors can identify with. It is a clear 'win-win' strategy, which goes straight to the 'bottom line'.

For the public at large, CSR plays another role. Trade liberalisation and technological change have opened up unprecedented business opportunities over the past twenty years. Yet the speed of change brings concern about globalisation, economic restructuring and the ever-growing power of multinationals. If corporations demonstrate a sense of social and environmental responsibility, they help to ease the transition towards the new economic order.

For government, the task is to make sure that the process of global economic and social change is managed properly and fairly. If CSR can assist this change, all will benefit. CSR can contribute to Asia’s reform goals of full employment, better jobs and to reduce the number of poor communities. But CSR can also play a role in developing better global governance and improving living and working standards worldwide.

THE INDIVIDUAL AND CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

On entering to “Globalization Ages” the challenges for humanity are more complex and possibilities for survival of our civilization are on the edge of ability and responsibility of humankind. The climate change system impact, very dangerous activities of national states entering wars, use of nuclear technologies, use of large number of synthetic chemical products and contemporary technologies from nuclear, particles acceleration, nano technology, digital, GMO, communications, transport to armaments, without knowing their medium- and long-term effect within the biosphere of the Planet Earth, producing enormous quantities of all sorts of waste, having Money Monster leadership, losing working effects of very large share of human population with urbanization and national states’, international, and global bureaucracy and services activities, being hardly able to feed the global human population, losing ability to ensure safe water for humans, losing possibility to have enough space for living and losing possibility to ensure quality air for breathing, are some of the challenges we are facing at present, and likely we shall face them and the unknown and possibly more severe ones in the future. The Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Program was invented to support the new challenges faced by corporations and their effect on the human society. One of these challenges is the Money Monster leadership which does not recognize the individual, social and global human society’s needs of now and in the possible sustainable future. The authors believe that CSR and individual social responsibility are forgotten values of humanity neglected by The Money Master.

The objective of ASRIA's Global Platform




The 2004 and beyond…

Since 2004 ASRIA’s has recognised, awarded, certified and appreciated Companies and individuals who come to know us through various international channels because they have put social responsibility practice either in corporate or individual capacity in line with the ASRIA’s Global Platform common goal and work together with us towards the MISSION of ASRIA’s Global Platform.

ASRIA’s Global Platform objective is to encourage government agencies, corporations, institutions and individuals to play their role actively in promoting social responsibility practice under a singular synergy platform to demonstrate what they have done for their community and others can learn from its good value of practice. With the synergise efforts mankind can only make the world a better place to live in for the present and future generations, and which will minimize the negative impact of human beings if everyone on Earth were to put social responsibility practice as one of the key principles in whatever things they undertake. It will bring positive improvement when every individual and corporation has the common goal to commit on this practice.

The quest for growth and development can no longer operate in isolation. Increasingly, companies will find themselves caught between the need to satisfy its profit motives and the society’s demand for social responsibility. Companies will find themselves addressing the need to become more social responsible simply because apparent irresponsibility carries high cost which often causes irreversible damage.

One of the ASRIA’s Platform aims is to provide guidance on how to produce a corporate sustainability report and other aspects to put CSR practice that meets multiple stakeholder expectations.

ASRIA's logo means





The logo is depicting the outline of four human beings signifying the family unit as a metaphor for the larger society. It is not the family unit, in whatever form or variation, the key building block of a larger society. Also are not men, women and children the irreplaceable building blocks of society and the human race. Has not mankind, by virtue of his superior intelligence and God-given soul and conscience, been given responsible stewardship over this world and must responsibly govern this world in order to always preserve it for an innumerable succession of generations and generations to come. It represents the greatest, the most ideal contribution to mankind and the world that ASRIA could achieve through the fields of education, training, the quest for knowledge and expertise, research and human development and the search for lasting peace through social responsibility.

Brief introduction about the establishment of ASRIA


The idea and proposal of “ASRIA” was brought by Prof. Dr. Haw Boon Hong to the Governing Board of Trustees on 10th October 2003. The proposal was approved and endorsed by the AU Foundation Board of Trustees on 10th March 2004. An announcement was made on 29th May 2004 in Malaysia to invite nominations. However, Prof. Dr. Dana M. Barry and Prof. Dr. Haw Boon Hong have been appointed to serve as key personnel for overseeing and developing the ASRIA project. A panel of judges has been set up to evaluate nomination application documents. The award presentation of ASRIA ceremony event is usually held in conjunction with the annual International Conference on Corporate Social Responsibility or other Conferences. The Award is a recognized personalized mark of distinction that speaks volumes to everyone you talk to.

The key factors or principles for practicing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR):
Transparency
Accountability
Reliability
Sustainability


ASRIA has been featured in the Academic Council on The United Nations System publication. Also it has been featured in the UNESCO-FUUH and European Commission (CEC) funding project of which our effort to PROMOTE WORLD PEACE THROUGH CULTIVATING CSR PRACTICE ASPECTS is highly appreciated by various levels of society globally.

The ASRIA Awards are known by 187 member nations to UNESCO commissions. ASRIA is a BRAND and ENDORSEMENT for CSR practicing Companies, Institutions, NGOs and individuals. The Award in recognizing responsible Corporate, Institutions, NGOs and individuals working together in collaboration with all countries around the world on six continents for Promoting World Peace by Cultivating Social Responsibility Practice as one of the keys to our universal mission.

After a thorough consideration by the Board of trustees of the ASRIA Election Board, we decided to present ASRIA Awards in different countries. The important thing is to keep things moving and achieving in a more persistent manner whatever the obstacles. This is the spirit that ASRIA should sustain. We have a lot more to do in other parts of the world but since we are doing things by phases, we should just patiently wait until the other areas are ready.

“The key advantages of being socially responsible are summarized as reputation is improved among staff and customers, productivity is improved through increased innovation and efficiency, shareholder value is increased as social investment funds target the company and institution, the customer base is widened with no risk of losing existing ones, motivation and commitment of staff is improved, recruitment of young, bright and dynamic people is enhanced and the personal satisfaction of management is increased. These are benefits, which any business and institution can ill afford to ignore. Society expects firms to have more than an economic interest in the world. Customers have learned to demand more. More and more people have become concerned about a company’s overall impact.

"TOGETHER WE PROMOTE A BETTER WORLD ENVIRONMENT TO LIVE IN. NOT ONLY MANKIND NEEDS MUCH CARE BUT THE EARTH EVEN NEEDS A GREATER CARE FROM HUMAN BEING.THE EARTH IS OUR ROOT FOR ANY LIVING THINGS TO APPRECIATE AND NOT TO DESTROY IT.” Prof. Dr. Haw, Founder cum Chairman of ASRIA & ‘SRW Social Responsibility World of RecordPedia’ the First kind of World Book of Records with the focus on Corporate Social Responsibility aspects.

This e-business opportunity requires the stakeholder (like you) to own an e-business yourself even though you have no product or service to provide. You mainly need to use our range of products and services to promote it via the web site developed by our support team members for you. Your income will depend on the type of services subscribed by the users (individuals or Companies) in order for us to determine your profit making. In addition we have arranged affiliate programmes for visitor to find out more information. Each click will help you to generate some income for you. We would say that it is a kind of profitable business with no regret.

WHY?

By year 2015 we believe that multi-millions of Companies in the world will be required to comply with CSR practice, if these organizations want to be sustainable in business. The power of consumer and their rights will bar those businesses without practicing CSR. Just imagine these huge global markets. Indeed the large market will help our representatives/stakeholders over 200 countries to earn a sustainable source of income year after year. Do not miss this golden opportunity and find out from us how to acquire the representative/stakeholder rights with only one time investment.

WHICH?

ASRIA’s Global Platform had the support from UNESCO, Academic Council on the United Nations, European Commission, Government agencies, Universities, NGOs and individuals at large. The hall mark of ASRIA endorsements will become their first choice of platform to build, cultivate and promote CSR brands in the world. ASRIA’s Global Platform would like to give representative rights for you to maximize the profit making opportunity

“Corporate Responsibility (CR) has never been more prominent on the corporate agenda. More companies are coming to understand that it is in their economic interest to address social and environmental impacts in a manner that is integrated with their operations. CR encompasses issues such as sustainability (meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs), stakeholder management, and corporate governance, as well as corporate philanthropy.” N. Craig Smith, London Business School, UK

WHEN?

Based on our four years research findings, we feel that it is extremely important to establish a CSR Consultancy Platform and ASRIA Portfolio synergy providing competitive global advantage by synergizing cutting-edge expertise in 7 key areas to produce 7 key results that really matter.

WHO?

The industry and Market needs

It is indeed a huge potential market to capture as compare to the figure of 20 million Companies. Presently less than 5% of Companies are producing Company CSR reporting in the world. Almost 50% of CSR practising companies took part in the International and local CSR Awards nomination which were organized by various awarding bodies. Companies realized the importance of CSR practice in the present world market which will enhance their company reputation and increase market share if they applied CSR in their company policies. In this case, it will make the marketing job easier. CSR practicing Companies and events organisers are most welcome to join hands with us to achieve this IMPORTANT and Meaningful mission through this profound platform created by ASRIA. ASRIA is creating a common platform for ALL CSR practicing companies including CSR Awarding bodies to join this singular platform to promote WORLD PEACE. Hence we are not creating ourselves as competitor simply because our objective is to bring the world to the New Era through CSR practice and trying to help as many companies to achieve this goal as soon as possible.





It is extremely important to establish a CSR Consultancy Platform and ASRIA Portfolio synergy providing competitive global advantage by synergizing cutting-edge expertise in 7 key areas to produce 7 key results that really matter. Our roles and responsibilities are lighting the way in CSR practice as a sustainable development future of mankind:

As ASRIA’s Platform believes that ‘Help others to be part of CSR community and everyone will win’.
- This kind of concept is like we are thinking out of the box to meet the present world condition. It is no harm to adopt this new joint effort collaboration, while you are still running the traditional way to conduct your business.

RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT ANY ENTITIES CULTIVATING CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (CSR) PRACTICE WILL ACHIEVE MORE! There are ways to do it. That is one of the important factors for organisations and individuals look to ASRIA’s Platform for assistance.

Especially after presenting the 1st Ansted Social Responsibility International Award (ASRIA) in 2004, we have been receiving a lot of encouragement, support, and enquiries from various countries, Government agencies, Companies, NGOs, Institutions and individuals at large expressing their interest in establishing long term collaboration with ASRIA.

THE HALLMARK

ASRIA is a BRAND and ENDORSEMENT INSTITUTION. It is a kind of International Certification Institution like ISO accreditation body but we are focused only on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) practicing Companies, Institutions, NGOs and individuals. The Award in recognizing responsible Corporate, Institutions, NGOs and individuals working together in collaboration with all countries around the world on six continents for Promoting World Peace by Cultivating Social Responsibility Practice is one of the keys to our universal mission.

Our target is to get a population of 20 million registered from various parts of the world by year 2015 to become part of the ASRIA’s Global Platform.

In ASRIA’s Global Platform, we always share the need to first VISUALIZE your dream / goal in order to set yourself to DO.... and accomplish results in all its glory & excitement. "If we are to achieve, we must look for the opportunity in every difficulty instead of the difficulty in every opportunity." - Walter E. Cole

Life is full of ups and downs, just as the economy can go from smooth sailing to stormy weather, seemingly without warning. These are our challenges and as we might have already encountered some rainy days... it doesn't mean we have to stand and soak! The best way to alleviate the situation is to challenge ourselves to improve it. To challenge our beliefs that we can weather, even the perfect storm!

Basically your involvement as the stakeholder of this mega project implementation is helping world population at large to promote World Peace through cultivating social responsibility practice to make this Earth a better place to live in. As you can see the world has so many problems, so we need to find an alternative universal platform that belongs to the world citizen at large to look for solutions. Don’t you think it is indeed a meaningful thing to do in your life together with the ASRIA’s Global Platform community?

'win-win' strategy, which goes straight to the 'bottom line'.

Today’s responsible companies will be tomorrow’s profitable companies.
The theme of Corporate Social Responsibility continues to grow in importance. Sustainable development and business ethics are now high on the public policy agenda. CSR is enlightened self-interest. Companies exist to make a profit and good CSR pays. Credibility and trust, the focal points of any CSR strategies, are also the key to hiring – and retaining – the best and brightest staff, and the key to branding which consumers and investors can identify with. It is a clear 'win-win' strategy, which goes straight to the 'bottom line'.

Wise advice from the old saying

“A wise man will desire no more than what he/she may get justly, use soberly, distribute cheerfully, and leave contentedly. The wealth of a nation cannot be stored in gold bars. It must remain in the spirit and attitude of the people; wholesome, hopeful, and reverent.”- “Achievement begins as we take the first step towards change” is particularly relevant. Challenge and change are paramount forces in every aspect of life.

Platform to promote World Peace through social responsibility practice…

At ASRIA’s Global Platform, we take all the necessary steps to invite as many stakeholders as possible to collaborate with us and join efforts to promote social responsibility throughout every corner of the world. ASRIA’s Global Platform welcomes all levels of individuals and corporations as well as government agencies. We believe it is important to cultivate social responsibility practice to promote World Peace. It is unlike other platforms only owned by a specific community.

Why is World Peace mission difficult to achieve?

Lack of social responsibility practice is one of the main factors that makes peace mission difficult to achieve. If Social Responsibility is not put in place URGENTLY at the heart of every activity of all by citizens around the world, no matter how hard we work for and no matter what kind of strategy is being used to cultivate peace, we will never be able to achieve mankind’s long desired goal. The worst part is keeping all of us busy for nothing and wasting our energy despite the fact that all kinds of ideal and profound policies have been created and developed by various governmental agencies, NGOs and Corporations centuries ago.

The right education helps: betterment through education

The Social Responsibility practice is an inter-related flow and it requires each country, corporation, and community, family and individual to work together in order to cultivate this courtesy value. Therefore, having social responsibility practice does not necessarily require money to do so but the right education is the most important aspect. If every citizen on Earth puts into practice the key principles of social responsibility it will bring positive improvement for a clean and healthy global environment. Environment is the basic necessity before we talk about profit and so on. We hope that the ASRIA’s Global Platform will prove extremely useful for any researchers needing to know more about individuals or corporate activities in relation to Social Responsibility aspects and become an important resource for reference.

The world is extremely wonderful, dynamic, powerful and beautiful but…

By putting all the world flags together, you will realize that the world is extremely wonderful, dynamic, powerful and beautiful but the faith of the Earth is dependent on society. Therefore the world needs a lot of responsible and caring individuals and corporations with various types of mission support tools from all government agencies in each country as a collective effect to inspire their citizens to make it a better place to live in. Society needs to be cultivated through a profound and lifelong learning education system. Of course humans need encouragement and recognition in order to excel but all these achievements will be recorded in the ASRIA’s Global Platform for reference purposes as some CSR projects may become good models for others to adopt

The forum of ASRIA’s Global Platform objectives:

Through forum discussion, we hope to share various types of Social Responsibility practice models, encourage and inspire individuals and corporations to make Social Responsibility Practice as part of the sustainable development movement to become part of human living culture values in the modern day, which we should start to cultivate at an early age.

The objectives for developing ASRIA’s Global Platform project together with Ansted are threefold:

· Social responsibility has many meanings and many implications for individuals, organizations, society and the broader environment. One objective therefore is to engage in a scholarly debate about the meaning and implications of this concept with as wide a set of people as possible throughout the world.
· Part of the reputation of ASRIA’s Global Platform is established through its research and contribution to the global community. In particular a platform has an obligation to make its position known on important issues of principle such as our concern with cultural and personal values. A second objective therefore is to establish ASRIA’s position with respect to both research and social values.
· Absolutely central to any institution is the quality of its teaching and the way, through this, that it equips its students with the skills and abilities to take their place in the leadership of the global community. Exposure to scholarly debate, particularly when originating from within their universities, is vital to this aim. Indeed it has been clearly demonstrated that a research active scholarly community is also a vibrant teaching and learning community. The third objective therefore is to enhance the quality of the learning experience for college and university students and universities future corporate partners as well as industries.

It can be seen from these examples that an organization can have a very significant effect upon its external environment and can actually change that environment through its activities. It can also be seen that these different effects can in some circumstances be viewed as beneficial and in other circumstances be viewed as detrimental to the environment. Indeed the same actions can be viewed as beneficial by some people and detrimental by others.
Why need to develop a series of Who’s who in the Corporate and individuals social responsibility practice?

It becomes one of the hot topics to talk about, especially the following things happened in the world’s recent years such as Climate change, food shortage, Oil fuel hike, Political and Companies Corruption practices, Nano-technology developments, and etc.
Corporate and individuals (CSR Practitioners) want their effort to be recognized, appreciated and promote it widely.
Various meaningful CSR projects need to be recorded and publicized.
With such a publication it will encourage practitioners to influence non practitioners to join hands with them to promote the common practice.
To provide guidance to help more Companies in the world to practice CSR culture and promote world peace.

Widespread support

ASRIA’s Global Platform objectives have already achieved widespread support from thousands of organsiations and industries in over 100 countries. Various organisations and institutions around the world have been organising conferences on CSR nowadays. This kind of active role played by these organisers are really concerned with increasing awareness, sharing research experience and refining techniques through interactive discussion concerning the most appropriate methodologies to achieve the aims of Social Responsibility. Therefore, we invite organisations involved in the CSR/SR practice or projects and CSR experts to write to us soon.

The Founder of ASRIA statement

According to the Founder of ASRIA, Prof. Haw Boon Hong said “We have the scientific knowledge to solve our major world challenges. We have the technological know-how to solve our problems. We have biological, psychological, and sociological knowledge to educate and transform human beings. We have organizational knowledge to design institutions that could support the transformation towards a sustainable world. But what we need is to have new hearts and a new VISION as well as cultivating Social Responsibility practice both in local and international level.” Published in the Informational Memorandum No. 70 • Spring 2007, by the Academic Council on the United Nations System.

My principal mission is to promote PEACE through cultivating Social Responsibility practice by creating a platform through Global community synergize effort. The motto of ASRIA’s Global Platform is “Leading examples to mankind through social responsibility practice” that is to say observe and reveal it, give it voice, apply it and bring it to human beings. To accomplish everything in a single day is probably impossible, so we need to go step by step. One cannot expect one’s practice to always go well. One needs to look further and see the practice as being in constant adaptation, dynamic. Whatever is deficient one has to correct, amend and should never give up until we achieve success.

“TOGETHER WE PROMOTE A BETTER WORLD ENVIRONMENT TO LIVE IN. NOT ONLY MANKIND NEEDS MUCH CARE BUT THE EARTH EVEN NEEDS A GREATER CARE FROM HUMAN BEING.THE EARTH IS OUR ROOT FOR ANY LIVING THINGS TO APPRECIATE AND NOT TO DESTROY IT.”

Let us see ‘The Society of Trees’ as a kind of illustration

Living together we rely on each other. This can be compared to the “social life” of a forest. In the “society of trees” it is not the case that all trees are the same. There are big ones and small ones. In fact, the big trees also have to rely on the small ones and the small ones on the big ones for the situation to be safe. It isn’t true that a tree isn’t threatened by dangers only because it is big. When a storm comes it is the big trees that fall. Similarly the small trees need to rely on the big ones for protection. If there weren’t any big trees to lean on they’d break. Every society needs to cooperate like this. Human beings should use their intelligence, their faculties of mindfulness and wisdom, and rise above the behaviour of the animal realm.

The 2004 and beyond…

Since 2004 ASRIA’s has recognised, awarded, certified and appreciated Companies and individuals who come to know us through various international channels because they have put social responsibility practice either in corporate or individual capacity in line with the ASRIA’s Global Platform common goal and work together with us towards the MISSION of ASRIA’s Global Platform.

By year 2015

Our target is to achieve 20 million Companies, Institutions, NGOs, Government agencies and individuals in the world to cultivate and practice Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Social Responsibility practice (SR) by year 2015. By year 2015 the world population will be reaching more than Seven billions. Of course, you and your Company are most welcome to join hands with us to achieve this IMPORTANT and Meaningful mission through this platform created by Ansted. Kindly let us know whether your Company will give full support to our project as we need to record your Company contributions and reward your Company accordingly.

The objective of ASRIA’s Global Platform

ASRIA’s Global Platform objective is to encourage government agencies, corporations, institutions and individuals to play their role actively in promoting social responsibility practice under a singular synergy platform to demonstrate what they have done for their community and others can learn from its good value of practice. With the synergise efforts mankind can only make the world a better place to live in for the present and future generations, and which will minimize the negative impact of human beings if everyone on Earth were to put social responsibility practice as one of the key principles in whatever things they undertake. It will bring positive improvement when every individual and corporation has the common goal to commit on this practice.

The quest for growth and development can no longer operate in isolation. Increasingly, companies will find themselves caught between the need to satisfy its profit motives and the society’s demand for social responsibility. Companies will find themselves addressing the need to become more social responsible simply because apparent irresponsibility carries high cost which often causes irreversible damage.

One of the ASRIA’s Platform aims is to provide guidance on how to produce a corporate sustainability report and other aspects to put CSR practice that meets multiple stakeholder expectations. It has covered all aspects of corporate social responsibility including; business ethics, corporate governance and accountability, globalization, civil protests, regulation, responsible marketing and social reporting. It is interdisciplinary in scope and global in application and is an essential forum for everyone with an interest in the CSR area.

The advantages of CSR practice for any organisation and institution

CSR is not something only of relevance to large Corporations. The benefits and opportunities are also there for Small and Medium sized Enterprises/Industries (SME/SMI), which make up the majority of sub-contractor Companies. SMEs are just as well placed to improve the social responsibility aspects of their company as larger businesses. The concept of fair trading within the supply chain and treating employees with respect are not limited to multi-nationals! The importance of CSR to the individuals working within these businesses is something, which should not be overlooked. Social Responsibility practice will become increasingly important to businesses and institutions nowadays.

The key advantages of being socially responsible are summarized as reputation is improved among staff and customers, productivity is improved through increased innovation and efficiency, shareholder value is increased as social investment funds target the company and institution, the customer base is widened with no risk of losing existing ones, motivation and commitment of staff is improved, recruitment of young, bright and dynamic people is enhanced and the personal satisfaction of management is increased. These benefits will improve any business and management organization. These are benefits, which any business and institution can ill afford to ignore. Society expects firms to have more than an economic interest in the world.

The key principles of social responsibility practice

There are a few key principles: Reliability, Sustainability, Accountability, Transparency, Responsiveness, ethics, legitimacy and regulation in relation to Governments, Corporations, NGOs, Academic and Research Institutions, Healthcare Centers, families, Executives and labourers as well as the public at large. The idea that it is good for organizations and people to be more aware of social responsibility practice is widespread in many societies, even if the word does not translate well into all languages.

Welcome advertisers and sponsors

From ASRIA’s perspective, one of the main aspects of human society is that of citizenship of our global community and that citizenship implies a sense of social responsibility and a putting back into the community at least as much as is taken out. Education and educating people is one way to bring about change and this is central to the purpose of the ASRIA’s Board, and the principal reason for ASRIA’s Global Platform stakeholder involvement.

We welcome sponsors and advertisers to enhance the value of social responsibility practice. All of us understand, not every company in the world can afford or has the chance to sponsor Olympic Games and World Cup. However, ASRIA’s Global Platform is able to give you this opportunity to enlighten the world through this profound social responsibility campaign project. This platform consists of a huge group of global communities, advertisers and sponsors who can maximise this platform to reach the world and enhance the company name globally.

Over the last decade the question of the relationship between organizations and society has been subject to much debate, often of a critical nature. The decade has seen protests concerning the actions of organizations, exposures of corporate exploitation and unfolding accounting scandals. At the same time ethical behaviour and a concern for the environment have been shown to have a positive correlation with corporate performance.

ASRIA’s Global Platform wants to recognise those individuals demonstrating excellence in leadership in all fields of endeavour, including government, public sectors, business, the professions and philanthropy, and the facilitation of friendly co-operation and assistance between leaders in various fields. All are welcome to find out more from us to get the detailed information on the membership.

The present and future outcomes & direct and collateral impacts...

Fixing a problem ‘now’ without due regard for ‘later’ and fixing a problem ‘here’ without consideration of there’, is untenable now that we all should know better. Taking responsibility for ourselves in the great matrix of the universe is important. Doing so says much about us as humans. Isolation of peoples serves parochial and power-elite ends but is inimical to freedom and long-term survival. It is critical that we humans link ourselves. Our basic differences are small and those that do exist are valuable. Similarities and differences among humans, when orchestrated to a shared concern, extend our abilities.

How to rectify some of the wrongful practices?

ASRIA’s Global Platform believes that moral principles, virtues and discipline should be the very first lessons to be taught to a child, and that children need to practice them daily. It was most important to the parents that their children learned moral principles and virtues first before any other subjects, because without these as a foundation, the learning of all other subjects would be futile. We can buy many things in this world with money, but good manners, like friendship and love, cannot be obtained with money. It can only be acquired through an early foundation with the aid of understanding parents and teachers. That is why in school, teachers not only prepare us for work in the future, but also teach us good manners. In olden days, the purpose of going to school and studying was to become saints and sages, not to make financial gains. They felt that without strict discipline and moral standards, a child would amount to nothing. Without knowing what it meant to be dutiful to one’s parents and respectful to one’s teachers, a child would grow up not listening to or respecting anyone. Currently, we live in a tumultuous world where the relationship between people, people and their environment, parent and children, husbands and wives, and employers and employees are disintegrating. Soon the planet Earth will no longer be fit for us to live on. The initiative of ASRIA’s Global Platform can serve as one of the tools to rectify some of the wrongful practices. In this way, future generations will benefit from it and society and our world will be more at peace.

How to develop and correct ourselves?

Just leaving things up to nature won’t be of much help for us. You can compare it to natural resources and raw materials. If we don’t process and shape them into a form, nature won’t do much good for us. That the places we live in provide shelter from sun and rain, heat and cold, is only possible because of the construction and development that took place; as such ASRIA’s Global Platform is calling everyone to assist in making this world a better place to live in.

Our experiences tell us that:

There is no perfect system and singular systems that can be applied to improve this world harmony & peace simply because we have too many countries, cultures, policies, regulations, practices, races, religions, different needs and expectations. Each one is practicing his own believed systems. Just think of the fact that in the past we never really paid attention to the world of our mind. All we did was see things according to our desires. What we called good was merely what gratified our wants and wishes. When we start seeing the world from a perspective that takes our true feelings into account, we might be shocked and finally realize that we need to improve in some ways. If we come to the point where we can stop negative mind states, we have truly accomplished something very beneficial. We see that these experiences are a way of understanding the processes that our inner life goes through. This truly is knowledge.

Human beings are beings that live in society, and there has to be communication, so inevitably we need to relate to all kinds of different impingements coming from society. We need to face the whole variety. It is advised to lead our lives consciously aware, with mindfulness and clear comprehension, in the very moment that we get into contact with the world. There is the eye that sees forms and shapes, there is the ear that hears sounds, the nose that smells odours, the tongue that tastes, the body that feels contact, and finally there are images arising in the mind caused by these objects.

All these experiences need filtering. They need to be faced with caution-that means, in a way that enables one to understand all the various impingements that occur. If one sees things clearly, all these objects will lose their value by themselves. This process is just like when we are together with children. Children find a lot of fun in playing around. But if we see the toys of a child, we probably all agree that they are meaningless-a puppet for example.
If we look back on our experiences, after some time, we start to see them as a mere heap of trash, as something that isn’t of any real use.

Also it is advised to practice together in groups and be interested in the welfare of their community to give each other the invitation for admonishment. It means to grant each other the opportunity for admonishment and constructive critical comments. Criticism here is not done with a mind state that is fixed on one’s view, opinions or conceit. It is simply meant to point out issues that arise, or warn each other about potential problems because all of us are not perfect as we walk this path. Sometimes we only look ahead and don’t see what’s behind us. Maybe we have some weak points. Here we rely on others to shine a light. Or they can show us a mirror to see ourselves more clearly and help us focus our attention on areas where we need to grow. This is why we grant each other opportunity for criticism. In this way development can take place. If we grant others the opportunity to address us, it helps us to re-establish our awareness of what we are doing.

Join us the earliest possible at the ground level and gain more

We are anticipating there will be thousands of individuals and Corporations to serve as stakeholders of ASRIA’s Global Platform project because as a stakeholder you will be the owner of a web site which is developed by our technical support team for you to promote a wide range of social responsible services, products and awards registered in ASRIA’s Global Platform. You simply enjoy the financial benefit through our dynamic system that we rendered our services. You will get profit sharing benefits as we submit our website to major search engines such as Google, Alltheweb, Open Directory Project, Yahoo and etc. The more stakeholders we have, the more popular ASRIA’s Global Platform will be. This will allow us to achieve the mission sooner.

On behalf of ASRIA’s Platform Stakeholders and Partners, I welcome you to join this profound platform where opportunities are created so as to meet your intellectual challenges, extend your knowledge and skills, and develop a platform for you to join hands with us to promote World Peace through cultivating social responsibility practice.

I sincerely wish you long life. Good health is the most important factor in our life without that no dream or success can come true. I strongly believe that you have gone through a lot of obstacles in your life and now you should be happy with what you have achieved. At this age, you have been contributing a lot to family, nations and society at large. You may not realize it but people who have gained the benefits from your contributions know it at heart.

Last but not least, we must keep in mind that CSR can enable all of us to benefit from living in a world in which common, positive, standards are respected by all.

Best regards,
Benjamin Alan
The Management of ASRIA's CSR Global Platform
