IPOH: Sustainable development, pollution, and the enhancement of the ecosystem are some of the highlights addressed during the Indonesia-Malaysia-Thailand Growth Triangle (IMT-GT) Green Council meeting.
Perak Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad said the meeting, held for the first time in Perak, discussed three main strategies concerning the environment.
“Strengthening cooperation in the management, and restoration of the ecosystem at the borders were also discussed,” he told a press conference after chairing the meeting at a hotel here Wednesday . “Especially in the bordering areas, we share the same forests, sea, and a certain extent of the culture as well, thus we need cooperation, and need to work together to face the various challenges.
He said in terms of the economic framework of the master plan, he envisions the state transitioning from an outmoded, extractive economy to a more sustainable, regenerative economy via a circular economic model.
