Kaki lima is an example of climate-adapted urbanism in Malaysia. The five-foot walkways in front of shophouses is a public realm found in many heritage towns, designed to shelter pedestrians from the tropical sun & rain. It also serves various social and economic functions (1/n).
The Bajau Laut are a sea-faring group that lived in small boats. Now, younger generations have been forced to settle on land, losing connection to nature. This #YouthDay see how @borneokomrad @my_sgp are changing this through #DigitalSolutions: ow.ly/GhXZ50SUx86

Still don’t get why bike-lanes need to be separated, with real protected bike infrastructure, and why paint isn’t real infrastructure? “Paint doesn’t protect.”Watch this powerful before-&-after video of Lansdowne Street in #Melbourne via MelbourneWay.
12 lanes across a Federal highway interchange. Yet still full of slow moving traffic. Somehow an MP thinks adding 4 maybe 6 more elevated lanes will change anything.
How a man’s world systematically neglects women. - When half the global population is treated as an afterthought, research is less accurate, policy is less effective, and welfare is diminished. (The list of evidence presented is damning, to say the least). eco-business.com/opinion/how-a-…

“Why do we have a policy to protect the local car market through the national automotive policy but we don't have one for vegetables to protect our national #foodsecurity?” - Nurfitri Amir Muhammad, coordinator of the Malaysian Food Security and Sovereignty Forum @symmfoni
Today we published a special report on food security and climate change. Did you know Msian rice farmers have changed harvest cycles due to changing weather patterns & veg farmers are planting off the ground (hang in polybag) to cope w extreme weather? malaysiakini.com/news/691957

SAM-TWN #JustEnergyTransition conference began today with understanding the concept and examining key questions to moving towards a #JustTransition in Malaysia. Here's what @MeenakshiRama20, President of SAM and Head of Programmes of @3rdworldnetwork👇🏾
It’s here! Just received my author copies of Malayan Classicism. Surreal to finally hold the thing I’ve been working on in some form or other since 2017. What a journey this has been!
"Around USD$33 billion was withdrawn from Malaysia’s pension fund, the Employee Provident Fund, to mitigate the impact of the pandemic. But now, the country could be facing a retirement timebomb." #malaysia #ageingpopulation #poverty #EPF channelnewsasia.com/watch/insight-…?
Have u watched Grey Scale @greyscaledocmy? Evelyn Teh @evelayn shared her journey of making Grey Scale and is currently active in campaigning to address how ready Malaysia is to support our elderly population. Watch the trailer here: youtu.be/eDsv6gpMzIg?fe… #aging #malaysia
A long overdue Part 2 of the making of Grey Scale. "The days extended into months, and months into a year, I began to realize that this story needed time to unfold the facets of my aunt’s life. Such stories tend to tell itself, and it cannot be rushed." evelynteh.com/blog/2022/9/22…
Creating the documentary was a long journey, as is sharing this post. After a year in the drafts, I'm pleased to express gratitude to those who made @greyscaledocmy possible.

A waste audit is needed before jumping into a conclusion. It will help to identify whether these plastics originated from Malaysia or the "supposedly recycled" plastic wastes shipped from the global north.
1. Malaysia is among the top 10 countries contributing significant amounts of plastic waste to the ocean, alongside the Philippines in the Southeast Asian region. Based on a survey conducted by UK energy service provider Utility Bidder, Malaysia is the fifth in this list.
I came across this statement recently and it goes something like this: "Planning without the marginalized is not called urbanism, it's called privilege."
The World Green & Sustainability Summit ESG Awards held in Kuching was sponsored by Samling. This is the logging company that had attempted, and ultimately failed, to file an intimidation legal suit against Save Rivers, an Indigenous-led NGO working to protect Sarawak's forests.
📢Update: We're almost at 80% of our target! We're about RM10k away from the overall target 🎉 Share & if you haven't already, donate if you can. This case is extremely important for the Temoq's land rights and environmental rights in M'sia. Donations: bit.ly/temoqfunds
The Temoq Orang Asli are in a legal battle to protect their forests from a proposed 8,500 ha palm oil plantation. RM50,000 is needed for their case. If you'd like to contribute, fill in the donation form here: bit.ly/temoqfunds Donations tracker: bit.ly/temoqfundstrac…
The Penang Fisherfolk’s Association submitted five demands during the recent State Elections & this includes stopping reclamation projects like this one in Penang. Yet the voices of local communities & NGOs are continously being neglected to pursue this development interest.
1. Preliminary works will begin today to create Silicon Island off the southern coast of Penang Island. Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow says the state has obtained all necessary approvals from relevant agencies, including the Penang Department of Environment on July 21.
Folks in Penang! 🏝️ Join us for an evening of thought-provoking documentary film, Grey Scale & engage in a lively conversation with fellow attendees and the filmmaker, Evelyn Teh. Date: Fri, 8th Sept Time: 8pm Location: Angel Community Cafe Register here: shorturl.at/szKW8
Putting someone who came from the real estate industry to manage both the housing AND the environment portfolio; in a state where environment is at threat due to the constant pressure of development. What could possibly go wrong, right?? freemalaysiatoday.com/category/natio…
