50th Anniversary of FELDA Stamp

Felda 50 Years Celebration

Established with the primary intention of eradicating poverty and developing the federal land, Felda has achieved notable accomplishments over the years. It was 50 years ago when Felda started developing 811,140 hectares of land area with the help from 104,946 settles. In fact Felda's knack for managing the world's biggest oil palm estate has contributed to making Malaysia known to the world.

Starting out with rubber and oil palm plantation as its core focus, Felda has since moved onwards by diversifying its economic activities to include manufacturing, services, engineering, transportation, shipping, construction, information technology and communication, retail, tourism, herbs, security and catering. After 50 years of success, Felda is now ready to achieve further accomplishments for the next 50 years.
