In May 2025, three officials, including Mr. Hidayatullah, deputy undersecretary from the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability (NRES) of Malaysia, visited Japan.
During their visit, a bilateral meeting was held with the Ministry of the Environment of Japan (MOEJ), along with site visits of related facilities and discussions on a range of climate change topics such as the facility-level greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reporting system, carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS), waste-to-energy technologies, and emissions trading schemes (ETS).
On the first day, the delegation visited three facilities: Japan CCS Co., Ltd., the Hikarigaoka Waste Incineration Plant operated by the Clean Authority of TOKYO, and the Kumagaya Plant of Taiheiyo Cement Corporation. These visits provided insights into practical applications of CCUS, waste incineration facilities, and carbon recycling cement production technologies, through company briefings and site tours.
On the second day, the delegation visited SEC corporation to provide knowledge about EEGS(Energy Efficiency and Global Warming Countermeasures online reporting system), which is Japan’s GHG emissions accounting and reporting online system. After this, a bilateral meeting on climate change cooperation between Ms. Ogawa, special international negotiator, MOEJ, and Mr. Hidayattullah, deputy undersecretary, was held, as well as an exchange of opinions, introduction concerning the implementation status of laws such as the SHK (Santei Houkoku Kohyo) system based on Japan's Act on Promotion of Global Warming Countermeasures, and initiatives led by the MOEJ. PaSTI was also presented as a model of bilateral cooperation in supporting the establishment of GHG emissions calculation and reporting systems.
Although Malaysia and PaSTI have only just begun working toward bilateral cooperation, both sides will continue to strengthen their partnership by sharing Japan’s expertise and working together on institutional development and methods for collecting data and calculating GHG emissions and related matters.
