A global management consultant suggests that Malaysia should embrace green shipping trends to stay relevant in the international maritime market. Developments at Port Klang, focusing on green fuel and energy-efficient technologies, could enhance Malaysia's position. Recommendations include aligning regulations with international standards like the IMO's guidelines to promote sustainability. The article highlights the EU's FuelEU Maritime regulation as a model for promoting cleaner energy technologies. Financial incentives and policy changes, similar to those in Singapore, could drive investments in green technologies. Malaysia's location presents opportunities for attracting foreign direct investment and testing innovative green shipping solutions while ensuring environmental conservation. The article also discusses Malaysia's ambitions to establish a low-carbon hydrogen hub by 2030 through the National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR), positioning the country as a leader in the green hydrogen market. Sarawak's hydrogen strategy, including the Tanjung Embang deepsea port project, aims to facilitate green hydrogen bunkering and LNG exports.
