Malaysia leads Asean’s charge towards a greener and sustainable future


Assistant Governor Madelena Mohamed oversees Bank Negara Malaysia’s strategy and sustainability sector.

AS the chair of Asean in 2025, Malaysia has chosen a theme that resonates deeply with the region’s aspirations: ‘Inclusivity and Sustainability’. This theme is not just symbolic. It is backed by a series of bold, strategic initiatives designed to turbocharge Asean’s transition to a low-carbon and resilient economy.

Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) plays a key role in shaping the financial architecture to support this transformation. As Asean charts its path to becoming the world’s fourth largest economy, the Asean Power Grid (APG) Project is central for the region’s growth and energy future.
