Malaysia to maintain biodiesel mandate


The Malaysian Biodiesel Association (MBA) said that Malaysia should retain its biodiesel mandate. The association has highlighted why Malaysia should not reduce or stop its biodiesel mandate, as the biodiesel industry hardly consumed one million tonnes of palm oil annually as opposed to over 40 million tonnes used globally.

PETALING JAYA: Malaysia will maintain the status quo on its biodiesel mandate, says Plantation Industries and Commodities Minister Datuk Zuraida Kamaruddin.

She said the Plantation Industries and Commodities Ministry assured the Malaysian Biodiesel Association (MBA) that it was all ears to the group’s proposal that Malaysia should retain its existing biodiesel mandate.
