Minister shares latest development in Malaysia’s RE space


Nik Nazmi: Previously we were erring slightly on the cautious side, but that there is a concerted push now for renewable energy.

NIK Nazmi Nik Ahmad belongs to that group of youngish ministers in Malaysia’s cabinet that hold promise for the positive changes that the country is in dire need of.

The 41-year-old Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change (NRECC) Minister may not have the loudest voice in the room but his quick learning on the varied sectors of the economy that come under his purview shows. Just as important is his ability to accept shortcomings and gives one the impression that he will do his best to fix what he can.
