KUALA LUMPUR: The circular economy in Asia, which is the best chance in reversing the causes of climate change and achieving environment-focused goals, is achievable with the right innovation and invention, said Sunway University chancellor and Sunway Group founder and chairman Tan Sri Jeffrey Cheah.

The circular economy is a regenerative system where resource input, waste, and leakage are minimised through maximising usage, as well as recovering and regenerating products and materials at the end of each service life.
