A budget that could positively influence environmental decisions on the basis of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is how WWF-Malaysia perceives Malaysia’s Budget 2021. In his budget speech, Finance Minister Datuk Seri Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz announced a number of allocations under the budget’s fourth strategy, which is ensuring resource sustainability.

(The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by all United Nations member states in 2015, provides a shared blueprint in the form of 17 interlinked Sustainable Development Goals to achieve peace and prosperity for all people and the planet.)
