Malaysia's Borneo states can now coordinate climate action across agencies
What happened
Malaysia's Borneo states have a new plan to coordinate climate action. This means agencies will work together on projects instead of separately.
Why it matters
This document outlines a new approach for coordinating climate action in Malaysia's Borneo states. Previously, different government bodies worked in silos. Now, there's a push for integrated planning and implementation of climate initiatives. This could lead to more efficient use of resources and potentially faster progress on climate goals, but it relies on agencies actually cooperating.
The signal
Watch whether the first few joint climate projects in Sabah and Sarawak are announced within the next year, or if agencies continue to operate independently.
