Meet The Team

SWWB is co-founded by Jenny Pui and Mason Tan. They have worked together for the past three years in the space of refugee, stateless, and undocumented communities before cofounding SWWB. Both of them are registered members of the Malaysian Association of Social Workers.

As SWWB commits to working with the community, leveraging on the strength of the community, SWWB will keep and have a small and lean local team in the operation. At the moment, they are looking to expand the team to have another three experienced and committed staff working alongside refugees in the social work field.
