Asia-Pacific LOHAS is a for-profit Social Enterprise. Our intention is to create profits through servicing the Asia-Pacific business community on all things Environmental. Below is our Mission Statement.

Asia-Pacific LOHAS will:

* generate profits, through its online and offline businesses, to be used to research and implement Asian models of sustainable living, both urban and rural.
* be the regional authority on Asian consumers’ attitudes towards conscious living and will mobilise ordinary consumers’ purchasing power to change consumer goods markets through the power of its social networks.
* administer the largest regional environmental online business network, with a target membership of 10,000 SMEs and 1,000 multinational companies.

We believe that Asia needs to find its own way of developing, one that is not based on the Western model of consumption. As it stands in Asia today, people wish to live the “MTV-life”, which means a huge mansion, many flash cars and a lifestyle based on conspicuous consumption. It’s no wonder that this is so, as the marketing messages surrounding this lifestyle are everywhere you look.

However, within Asian cultures lie a deep respect for Nature and an inherent belief in Sustainability through the generations. Asia-Pacific LOHAS wishes to tap into this Asian psyche and fund research into how we can draw upon this to forge a new, Asian way of living that is less wasteful, more family-oriented and modest in its outlook.
