EUROCHAM Malaysia was invited to attend the enlightening Arise+ Malaysia Workshop on Inclusive and Sustainable Economic Growth through International Trade and Economic Integration, in collaboration with the EU Green Deal.

In attendance of the workshop were distinguished speakers from the International Trade Centre (ITC), Mr. Pekka Pentilla, EU Delegation, and esteemed representatives from Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (NRECC) and Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI), delved into crucial discussions on Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and EU Deforestation-Free Products Regulation (EUDR).

The two-day workshop held in Kuala Lumpur on August 14th and 15th, 2023, served as a remarkable platform to bridge the knowledge gap for public and private sector stakeholders. Day one saw insightful presentations about CBAM, followed by comprehensive insights into EUDR on day two.

The workshop highlighted the intersection of these policies with the EU Green Deal and shed light on their potential impact on Malaysia. A highlight of the event was the dynamic panel discussion on 'Understanding Malaysia's Policy Initiatives as a Response to CBAM and EUDR.' Distinguished representatives from MITI, NRECC, Malaysian Green Technology and Climate Change Corporation, and Bursa Malaysia brought diverse perspectives to the table, enriching the discourse.

As advocates of sustainable economic growth and international collaboration, EUROCHAM Malaysia applauds the strides taken to enhance our understanding of these crucial policies. We're committed to fostering meaningful dialogues that drive positive change and shape a greener, more inclusive future.
