On May 27, 2024, Layang Kaji Sdn Bhd proudly participated in the official launch of the Forest Conservation Certificate (FCC) and Forest Conservation Offset (FCO) initiatives at the KLCC Convention Centre. This groundbreaking ceremony, officiated by YB Nik Nazmi Bin Nik Ahmad, Minister of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability, marks a significant milestone in Malaysia's approach to sustainable forest management.
A New Era of Private Sector Engagement
The FCC and FCO programs represent a revolutionary approach to forest conservation, designed specifically to foster private sector involvement in biodiversity and environmental conservation efforts. These initiatives create a structured framework that allows businesses to contribute meaningfully to Malaysia's forest conservation goals while meeting their corporate sustainability objectives.
Key Highlights of the Launch Event
The ceremony brought together over 200 stakeholders from various sectors, including government officials, private companies, NGOs, and academic institutions. The event featured comprehensive presentations on the FCC protocol, implementation guidelines, and the potential impact of these initiatives on Malaysia's forest ecosystem.
