Diversifying countries’ economies beyond land-based activities and along their coasts is critical to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and delivering smart\, sustainable\, and inclusive growth globally. The ocean economy can generally account for about 15-40% of total GDP of the countries in this region. \nThe ocean sector is crucial to Malaysia’s economy through its resources and ecosystem services that support its trade and industries and therefore requires proper management and conservation strategies to achieve maximum economic\, environmental\, and social outcomes. Such a process will involve participation by relevant stakeholders and the need to assess the resources required in terms of physical and human assets\, investment in research\, science\, and technology\, collaboration\, as well as review and formulation of policies. \nNational initiative to drive this further include developing a blue economy blueprint to help define and refine Malaysia’s conception of the concept and implementation\, promoting the use of ocean economy data in marine planning\, and to facilitate further engagement and collaboration on related areas\, in addition to identifying relevant stakeholders and encouraging their involvement through discussions and consultations for mapping exercises to rationalise better governance efforts\, identify interests that need to be safeguarded\, and explore opportunities. \nThis workshop is therefore targeted to set the pathway for a systematic and coordinated approach\, through stakeholders’ consultation\, to drive the preparation of a national blue economy blueprint.

In supporting the endeavor\, two online workshops have been planned for 2022\, to begin the dialogue between Australian and Malaysian academic institutions\, Government and non-Government agencies\, and industry players to address marine debris and plastic pollution. These workshops will address issues of strategic importance to Malaysia and the region\, and where Australian institutions have leading capacity and knowledge to contribute policy\, technical\, and/or business solutions. \nUpon the successful conduct of the 1st Dialogue on 10th August 2022 (with a focus on Monitoring Mechanisms to Support the Regional and Global Agenda)\, Dialogue 2 will address Waste Handling\, Materials Recovery\, and Advanced Recycling\, scheduled from 14-15 Sept. 2022. \nThe Malaysia – Australia Dialogue will provide an opportunity for stakeholders across the plastics ecosystem to discuss and collaborate on finding solutions to the marine plastic pollution problem. This forum recognises that marine plastic pollution is often caused by poor waste management and leakage from urban and rural environments. Comprehensive waste collection services and secure landfills are one way to stop flows of plastic into the marine environment. However\, investment in materials recovery from traditional waste streams and advanced recycling technologies are also required to address the growing volumes of mixed and/or contaminated plastic waste entering the environment and being lost to the national economy. \nThis forum will also support further the various efforts undertaken at the national and regional levels on the area including i.e.\, \n\nThe Australian and Malaysian Governments bilateral agreement on a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership (CSP) to explore cooperation in solving marine plastic pollution\, improving waste management\, and creating a circular economy.\nThe Twelfth Malaysia Plan 2021-2025 which seeks to advance green growth through accelerating the transition to a circular economy related to solid waste\, plastic\, scheduled waste\, and other related focus.\nMalaysia Roadmap Towards Zero Single-Use Plastics 2018-2030 which seeks to take a phased\, evidence-based and holistic approach by involving all stakeholders in jointly addressing single-use plastics pollution.\nMalaysia Plastics Sustainability Roadmap 2021-2030 to achieve plastics circularity while supporting a healthier\, cleaner\, and sustainable Malaysia.\nThe National Marine Litter Policy and Action Plan 2021-2030 to guide nationwide actions to address marine litter pollution\, especially plastic.\n\n\nFill out my online form.

This exchange will provide information and perspectives of not only different states’ Indo-Pacific strategy\, but also the concerns and viewpoints of Malaysians and ASEAN member states. \nThe Indo-Pacific is the most strategically important region in the 21st maritime century that transverses the maritime space across the Indian and the Pacific Oceans. It has emerged as the centre of gravity for the geopolitical and geo-strategic competition between the United States and China. Two-third of the global economy is centred in the Indo-Pacific\, contributing 60% of the world’s Gross Domestic Products (GDP). Furthermore\, the region also hosts some of the world’s most critical sea lines of communication (SLOCs); hence\, the maritime sector lies at the centre of discourse on the Indo-Pacific. In recent times\, geopolitical dynamics and economic investments in the region have multiplied. Therefore\, it is crucial to engage\, connect\, and rationalise the challenges in the Indo-Pacific region through multilateral cooperation among the Indo-Pacific nations on functional issues within the maritime domain\, especially the non-traditional security challenges and ocean governance.

However\, much of the ocean is now seriously degraded\, with changes and losses in the structure\, function and benefits from marine systems. The impact of multiple stressors on the ocean is anticipated to keep increasing as the human population keeps growing towards an expected 9 billion by 2050. Therefore\, adaptation strategies and science-informed policy responses to global change are urgently needed. \nOver the last 10–15 years\, marine spatial planning (MSP) has risen to become the dominant marine management paradigm. It has been widely promoted by academics\, practitioners\, and policymakers as a process for implementing ecosystem-based management in the marine environment\, reducing user conflict\, enhancing environmental protection\, and facilitating maritime economies’ expansion. \nThe Seminar aims to highlight MSP’s actual and potential impacts on ocean sustainability by sharing perspectives and experiences from France/Europe and Malaysia/South-East Asia and focusing on transboundary issues. France and the European Union have significant expertise in MSP approaches\, while Malaysia has shown interest in this area (pilot experiences and workshops) and is working on integrated maritime management. \nThe Seminar will highlight the following discussion themes: \n\nMSP and marine protected areas conservation\nMSP and its potential contribution towards blue economy\nCommunity engagement to implement MSP at the local scale\nMSP at a regional scale and its challenges in transboundary approaches\n\n\nFill out my online form.

The forum will provide an overview of the ongoing efforts to support the implementation of measures to address greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from shipping activities within the framework of the IMO initial Strategy for reducing GHG emissions\, and more recently with the adoption of further key measures targeted at cutting the carbon intensity of all ships by at least 40% by 2030. The combination of mandatory measures combined with the implementation support from the IMO sets shipping on a pathway to decarbonisation in the global fight against climate change. These include capacity building\, technical assistance and technology cooperation through global and regional projects that would also benefit Malaysia to meet the GHG targets. Some of these examples include the GEF-UNDP-IMO GloMEEP Project (concluded)\, the IMO-Norway GreenVoyage2050 project\, as well as the upcoming IMO-Germany Asia Maritime Transport Emissions project (Blue Solutions) to cut maritime transport emissions in the region. Through this symposium\, the Ministry of Transport (MOT) Malaysia in collaboration with the Maritime Institute of Malaysia (MIMA) looks forward to contribute to knowledge sharing on emerging global\, regional and national discourse on the role of the maritime sector in decarbonisation towards supporting climate actions and sustainable growth. \nObjectives \n\nTo highlight IMO’s requirements on innovation\, knowledge sharing and technology deployment for maritime management and decarbonisation;\nTo enhance stakeholders’ awareness through sharing of perspectives on GHG reduction priorities in the maritime sector in Malaysia; and\nTo share national GHG reduction initiatives\, opportunities\, as well as issues and challenges for further development and upscaling of GHG reduction programmes at the national level.\n\nAGENDA \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n TimeBy\n\n\n\n \n 10.00 - 10.10 AMWelcoming Remarks   \nDatuk Dr Sabirin Ja’afarDirector GeneralMaritime Institute of Malaysia (MIMA) \n \n 10.10 – 11.30 AMMIMA Talk by Mr. Mohd Nazery Mohd Khalid: Application of Industry 4.0 in the Marine Industry: Updates\, Issues and OpportunitiesPresenter: Mr. Nazery Khalid \n \n 11.30 AM – 12.00 PMQuestion & Answer Session \n \n 12.00 PMEnd of Session URL:https://www.mima.gov.my/event/high-level-panel-on-fostering-innovation-knowledge-sharing LOCATION:Virtual Event (Zoom) ORGANIZER;CN="Maritime Institute of Malaysia (MIMA)":MAILTO:mima@mima.gov.my END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
