As Malaysia enters week two of COP30, the Pavilion continues to serve as a collaborative platform where government, industry, academia, civil society and youth exchange insights and forge pathways toward low-carbon growth. Anchored by the theme "Climate Action Now: Net Zero Pathways Unlocked," the Pavilion showcases Malaysia's efforts to integrate sustainability across national development.

Reflecting on Malaysia's aspirations for the second week, Deputy Minister of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability (NRES), Dato' Sri Huang Tiong Sii, said, "Our theme speaks to the many pathways already taking shape across Malaysia, from renewable energy expansion to nature-based solutions and sustainable urban development. Each of these pathways reflects our collective effort to translate sustainability into real, lasting impact for people and the planet. As the world convenes here in Belém to review progress and share lessons, Malaysia's approach remains consistent to integrate sustainability into every dimension of national development through collaboration, knowledge and community empowerment."

Malaysia continues to cement its leadership in advancing regional climate collaboration. Building on the momentum from its ASEAN Chairmanship in 2025 and its progress at COP30, Malaysia has laid strong foundations for harmonising carbon market standards, strengthening nature-based solutions frameworks, and safeguarding transboundary ecosystems. As the Chairmanship transitions to the Philippines, this continuity of vision and commitment remains intact ensuring that regional cooperation stays aligned, ambition is translated into tangible outcomes, and Southeast Asia remains a driving force in shaping global climate solutions

The updated target is aligned with Malaysia's Long-Term Low Emissions Development Strategy (LTLEDS), the 13th Malaysia Plan (RMK-13) and the National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR), ensuring that near-term actions reinforce Malaysia's long-term aspiration to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. NDC 3.0 also strengthens Malaysia's adaptation planning by outlining climate risks, sectoral priorities and resilience strategies in line with the Paris Agreement's enhanced transparency requirements.

Throughout the week, the Pavilion will also host Networking Sessions, Project Presentations and Fireside Chats, facilitating partnerships between government agencies, private sector stakeholders, and international organisations.

The Malaysia Pavilion at COP30 is spearheaded by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability (NRES), implemented by the Malaysian Green Technology and Climate Change Corporation (MGTC), and supported by leading national strategic partners,Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) and Maybank.
