Creating sponge cities


MALAYSIANS are experiencing lingering and sweltering heat in the country. The rising temperatures have an impact on our physiological health and water ecosystems.

Malaysia is blessed with rainfall exceeding 3,000mm annually. However, we are facing challenges related to population growth and urbanisation, river pollution and climate change. Access to fresh water as a counterbalance to rising temperatures has become critical.
