Malaysia has officially unveiled the Malaysia Pavilion at COP30 in Belém, Brazil, reinforcing its dedication to addressing the global climate crisis. The pavilion, themed “Climate Action Now: Net Zero Pathways Unlocked,” showcases Malaysia’s commitment to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. This initiative builds on the progress made at COP29 and reflects Malaysia’s whole-of-nation approach to climate action.
The pavilion highlights Malaysia’s focus on biodiversity and nature-based solutions as key elements of its low-carbon transition. As the ASEAN Chair of 2025, Malaysia is also deepening regional collaboration to accelerate collective climate action. The pavilion will spotlight five thematic areas: restoring rainforests, rivers, and reefs; energy transition pathways for developing nations; climate justice in the Global South; future-proofing water, food systems, and industry; and unlocking finance for net-zero.
Datuk Nor Yahati binti Awang, Deputy Secretary General of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability (NRES), stated, “We aim to drive tangible and transformative change that will realise our aspiration of achieving carbon neutrality and securing a sustainable future for all.”
The Malaysia Pavilion will host a series of high-level dialogues, panel discussions, and collaborative sessions to advance regional and global conversations on climate resilience. Key stakeholders include Tenaga Nasional Berhad, the United Nations Sustainable Development Solutions Network, and the World Bank.
Spearheaded by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability, in collaboration with the Malaysian Green Technology and Climate Change Corporation, the pavilion underscores Malaysia’s readiness to transition from commitments to implementation, showcasing real progress and partnerships for a sustainable future.
