Mr Akbar Md Thayoob, MPA President:

"By bringing together key stakeholders including that from the government, industry associations, petrochemical producers, technology and solution providers, brand owners, and supply chain organisation, PSC 2022 is set to be an interactive platform that encourages conversation, knowledge sharing and engagement amongst industry players and key stakeholders and prompt meaningful discussions on common strategies to support the journey towards Net-Zero ambitions. This knowledge cross-sharing platform will also provide opportunities for the participants to acquire industry insights and keep abreast with the latest technology and solutions to address climate change challenges. 

What makes PSC 2022 special is that every moderated session has been carefully and specially curated by the Malaysian Petrochemicals Association (MPA) together with our Knowledge Partners, Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and Environmental Resources Management (ERM) both of whom are renowned multinational global consulting firms."

I expect a lot of intense conversations to take place on the next steps, new technologies and resources that we can tap into."
