Transfer Stations – Southern Kuala Lumpur Transfer Station (SKLTS)

CyEn has been awarded the "Build, Operate and Transfer" (BOT) privatisation of a new solid waste transfer station, known as the “Southern Kuala Lumpur Transfer Station (SKLTS)” at Kampung Bohol, Mukim Petaling, Kuala Lumpur.

Built on a site of approximately 9 ha in size, SKLTS is designed to cater for the management of solid waste for the southern part of Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur (FTKL) and the state of Selangor for the next 30 years.

SKLTS is designed to achieve operational efficiency, with minimal impacts on the surrounding environment during the development and operation of the facility.

Preparatory Support Activities towards Malaysia’s Second National Communication

Malaysia ratified the UNFCCC in 1994. In response to an obligation to the Convention, Malaysia submitted its Initial National Communication (INC) in 2000. The preparation of the Second National Communication (NC2) has been identified as a prioritised action by Malaysia’s National Focal Point, Conservation & Environmental Management Division (CEMD), Ministry of Natural Resources & Environment. The report, besides continuously meeting the commitment under the Convention, will help in identifying the national priorities and needs in order to facilitate the necessary decision-making by policy makers.

Through a DANIDA-funded project, “Multilateral Environmental Agreements: Capacity Building and Implementation in Malaysia”, CyEn has been appointed as the Local Climate Change Consultant to assist CEMD in drafting an application proposal for the GEF’s fund for the preparation of Malaysia’s Second National Communication (NC2). Activities for implementation in NC2 are identified through various stocktaking and stakeholders consultation means, which include reviewing the INC, interviewing key stakeholders, organisation of workshops and reference to international experience and best practices.

In addition, mapping of climate change stakeholders is carried out as part of the preparatory activities for the NC2 process. The resulting outputs will thus be of use both in the specific NC2 process, as well as in the general work on institutional development related to management of UNFCCC.


Bridging Activities for Malaysia’s Second National Communication (NC2)

Recognising that the approval process for the application of the GEF’s fund may require a few months, CyEn is currently assisting the Malaysia’s National Focal Point in undertaking several bridging activities in order to maintain the momentum and sustain the awareness of stakeholders on the NC2 process. The activities are directed to establish the institutional structure for the NC2 process, to mobilise the involved stakeholders and to further enhance their capacity and awareness.

The bridging activities for the preparation of NC2 include:

• Establishing the infrastructure for NC2 preparation
• Study of Annex I and non-Annex I country experience and practices
• Awareness activities for high-level government officials and media
• Training and supportive studies as input to the NC2 process
• Stakeholders mobilisation in Sabah and Sarawak
