THE Centre for Environment, Technology and Development, Malaysia (Cetdem) wishes to mark yesterday’s World Water Day by stating that Malaysia needs urgently to ensure the whole water cycle is sustainably managed, rather than being fixated on chemical water pollution problems in Johor and Selangor. Cetdem think-tank Sudi published in December 2018 a report titled Towards Water Sustainability that set out 22 recommendations on how sustainability could be achieved.

Copies of this report have been sent to the National Water Council; Water, Land and Natural Resources minister; Energy, Science, Technology, Environment and Climate Change minister; all chief ministers and mentris besar; as well as relevant agencies, asking them to act on relevant recommendations.
