Build regional emissions trading system, Asean urged


KUCHING: Asean should come up with its own emissions trading system (ETS) to provide a higher value for carbon credits in the region, says state Deputy Energy and Environmental Sustainability Minister Datuk Dr Hazland Abang Hipni.

He added that the region currently lacks such a system, unlike other parts of the world such as Europe, the United States, Canada, China and South Korea.
