Twenty-two US companies, including IBM, Micron, and Boeing, have expressed support for Malaysia's upcoming Climate Change Bill and National Carbon Market Policy. The legislation aims to provide regulatory certainty for international investors and establish a framework for the country to reach net-zero emissions by 2050. Key discussions focused on aligning carbon policies across ASEAN to enable cross-border trade and regional market integration. The US-ASEAN Business Council also recommended that revenue from carbon taxes be transparently reinvested into conservation and green technology projects.
