Malaysia under the Madani Government has set a national goal to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. But are the policies in place sufficient to ensure Malaysia’s resilience in the probable likelihood that the 1.5 degrees Celsius threshold for warming is breached? We discuss themes in the climate change agenda with Yin Shao Loong of Khazanah Research Institute, lead author of "What Is To Be Done? Confronting Climate Crisis in Malaysia."
