COMMITMENT
TO UNFCCC
“ I would also like to announce here in Copenhagen that
Malaysia is adopting an indicator of a voluntary reduction of up
to 40% in terms of emissions intensity of GDP by the year 2020
compared to 2005 levels. This indicator is conditional on
receiving the transfer of technology and finance of adequate
and correspond to what is required in order to achieve this
indicator”

GREEN COLLAR JOBS
UNEP, ILO, IOE & ITUC Green Jobs;
“Define green jobs as work in agricultural,
manufacturing, research and development (R&D),
administrative, and service activities that contribute
substantially to preserving or restoring
environmental quality, includes jobs that help to
protect ecosystems and biodiversity; reduce
energy, materials, and water consumption; decarbonize the economy; and minimize or avoid
generation of all forms of waste and pollution.”

 Educate drivers about environmental and health issue
 Enforce no idling laws
CONCLUSIONS
Green highway is an important element for green
growth economy by providing accessibility, reduce
travel time, provide green collar jobs, increase
green FDI & DDI, reduce operation cost, reduce
maintenance cost, create new green businesses
and support economic sustainability
GH also directly reduce carbon footprint for any
organization, state and nation, provide mitigation
and adaptation to climate change impacts, protect
natural habitats and eco-system, and provide
environmental sustainability

CLEAN,
EFFICIENT &
TRANSPARENT
