KUALA LUMPUR, June 27 — Malaysia is determined to foster a cordial engagement with the European Union in search of a win-win solution that can benefit the palm oil industry at large although the trade bloc has remained a staunch opposition of the palm oil trade since 2003.

Engagements are currently being held through various platforms, for example the Asean-EU Joint Working Group, seminar programmes or webinars and dialogues/discussions via economic and palm oil promotion missions, she said. “Under the Malaysia-EU partnership initiative, two programmes stand out — the Sustainability of Malaysian and Indonesian Palm Oil project or KAMI, and the National Initiatives for Sustainable and Climate Smart Oil Palm Smallholders with the Netherlands,” she said in a statement today.

“ a symbolic gesture between the world’s top two palm oil producers, various programmes have been or in the midst of being implemented to foil the onslaught of anti-palm oil campaigns,” she said.
