Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability Minister Datuk Seri Arthur Joseph Kurup said the nation is moving beyond gross domestic product (GDP) intensity reductions under its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) 3.0.

He said this in his virtual keynote address at the Asia ESG Summit 2026.
