It has become increasingly obvious that issues of energy and environment cannot be ignored if development, economic fortitude, and societal well-being are the goals of a country. Back in 2011, Malaysia had an ambitious plan to build a “green economy”, in line with this. We discuss what a truly green economy looks like and what Malaysia's national green economy framework reflects, with YBhg. Dato' Seri Ir. Dr. Zaini bin Ujang, the Secretary General of the Ministry of Energy, Green Technology and Water (KeTTHA) Malaysia.
