Malaysia's National SCP Blueprint 2016-2030 for Sustainable Consumption and Production

The National SCP Blueprint 2016-2030 – The Pathways for Sustainable Consumption and Production (SCP) in Malaysia, finalized in January 2016 by the Economic Planning Unit, Prime Minister’s Department, outlines Malaysia's strategy for achieving green growth by modifying consumption and production patterns. Its primary purpose is to reduce pollution, minimize resource wastage, and contribute to Malaysia’s international climate commitments, aligning with the United Nations recommendation for a national SCP framework and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) until 2030, where SCP is a core goal. The Blueprint builds upon existing initiatives and national policies, including the Eleventh Malaysia Plan 2016-2020. The scope of the Blueprint covers various pathways for implementing SCP across different sectors. Key pathways include leading by example through government green procurement (GGP), ensuring transparency of SCP benefits for private households, promoting the business case of SCP in industry, moving towards a circular economy waste system, encouraging energy-wise buildings, fostering sustainable, safe, and nutritious food systems, developing low-carbon mobility, adding value to tourism through SCP, implementing SCP communication, education, and public awareness (CEPA), and establishing mechanisms for coordinating and monitoring SCP implementation. Affected sectors include government (procurement), private households, industry, waste management, construction (buildings), agriculture (food), transport (mobility), tourism, and education/public awareness bodies. The Blueprint sets a strategic framework for the period 2016-2030. While the Blueprint outlines pathways and goals for this period, specific compliance dates for individual actions or regulations stemming from the Blueprint are not detailed within this summary information.
