In Malaysia, the sustainability consultancy market is witnessing significant growth, fuelled by a heightened awareness of environmental issues and increasing regulatory pressures. Government initiatives such as the 11th Malaysian Plan, which emphasizes sustainable development goals and national climate change policies, underscore the importance of addressing climate change across various sectors. This has prompted Malaysian companies to prioritize sustainability reporting to enhance their corporate image and comply with international standards like the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System.
Furthermore, consumer pressure for environmentally sustainable products and services has led to a surge in demand for sustainability consultancy services. Multinational corporations operating in Malaysia are also seeking expertise to meet their global sustainability commitments. As a result, sustainability consulting plays a pivotal role in helping companies measure, manage, and report their environmental and social impacts, ensuring compliance and driving positive change throughout their supply chains. Amidst the burgeoning awareness of environmental issues and the evolving regulatory landscape, the role of leaders like Ts.
