UPFRONT with
Chairman of MSCA
Assalamualaikum, Greetings from MSCA! First and foremost, I would like to extend a warm welcome to our newest members. I believe that with increased cooperation and support, MSCA can play a larger role in spearheading smart city implementation in Malaysia. The climate change has clearly become a business issue. Change is being driven by policymakers through regulation, funding, and financial incentives. Corporates, on the other hand, are providing their own impetus by rethinking their business models in line with stronger Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance (ESG) strategies. Despite widespread agreement that change is necessary, forming the partnerships and working together to bring it about can be difficult because it calls for the balancing of many different interests and priorities. New relationships will need to be established across sectors.
This newsletter brings about decarbonisation theme that instead of discussing environmental problems at length, it focuses on potential solutions with cities at the core. This newsletter also will keep everyone informed on MSCA latest news, activities and upcoming events. I hope that everyone will benefit and share knowledge and know-how so that we can work together to accelerate smart city implementation in Malaysia. Sincerely, Ts. Dr. Raslan Ahmad, FASc Chairman of MSCA
