As we witness the enormous wave of world climate change, we can never divert from acknowledging that economic growth has somewhat negatively impacted the atmosphere. Today, the world is more sensitised about the environmental effects and the footprints of their consumption.
Moving forward and becoming more environmentally conscious, many initiatives have been launched to ensure trade stability, and one of them is in relation to sustainability agenda through MATRADE’s SAVE Programme. The plan is to adopt sustainability and agile practices aligned with the 17 United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 2030 to assist Malaysian exporters in strategic foreign market access.
This issue of EFM is on sustainability, which has accentuated our homegrown businesses that have successfully applied the three pillars of sustainability - environmental, social and governance as their core or best practices. These practices enhance the companies’ ability to exist and grow while looking to protect our natural environment, human and ecological health, driving innovation and improving standards of living.
Also featured here are companies that envision achieving the mandated level of sustainability in their production for safer trade. As a result, their products are readily exported and, most importantly, aligned with the sustainability agenda.
With the increasing global demand for more access to sustainable and environmentally friendly products and services, Malaysia is an excellent choice for you to explore trade prospects.
