Malaysia court rejects RimbaWatch judicial review on carbon neutral marketing complaints
freemalaysiatoday.comA Malaysian High Court dismissed environmental group RimbaWatch's judicial review applications against two ministries over their failure to investigate complaints about fossil fuel products marketed as carbon neutral. RimbaWatch had filed complaints with the natural resources ministry (NRES) and the domestic trade ministry (KPDN) last year, arguing the claims mislead consumers and harm climate protection. Both ministries said the other had jurisdiction, leading to the court challenge. RimbaWatch plans to appeal the ruling, which could clarify how carbon neutral claims are regulated in Malaysia.
