After more than two years of helming the position as Minister of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability, Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad has recently released a book titled “Saving The Planet”, documenting his experiences as Minister. As Malaysia has a strong commitment to its net-zero goal, we speak with him to understand how our country can translate ambition into action as well as how we can reconcile climate policy with political expediency.
