KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 16 (Bernama) -- The SABC 2024 Side Program featured a session between the conference delegates with YB Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad, Minister of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability, and moderated by YBhg. Dato’ Johary Bin Anuar, Selangor Deputy State Secretary (Development) cum Director of UPEN, focused on investment and sustainable development in Malaysia.
