Malaysia’s upcoming National Mineral Policy will cover the industry’s entire value chain – from exploration, production and processing to commercialising products.
Nik Nazmi said the Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability Ministry is strengthening the regulatory framework for the mineral industry to ensure that green pathways are effectively implemented. This effort, he added, is a continuation of TIM 2021-2030, which was launched in 2021 to promote growth in the mineral industry.
He said this approach not only safeguards Malaysia’s natural heritage but also positions the country as a leader in the development of green minerals crucial to the future global economy.
