Sharing important news and updates for you and the community Back No Act of Kindness is Too Small - Malakoff, KeTSA and SEDA Give Back to the Community 30 April 2021 On 1 May 2021, Malakoff Corporation Berhad (“Malakoff”) had collaborated with the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (“KeTSA”) and Sustainable Energy Development Authority Malaysia (“SEDA”) to sponsor a ‘buka puasa’ event for 120 students residing at Rumah Amal Limpahan Kasih (“RALK”) in Puchong, Selangor. The event was further enlivened with a donation handover of RM7,110 yielded off a donation drive held across all departments and divisions in Malakoff, KeTSA and SEDA throughout the month of Ramadhan. Strictly following Standard Operating Procedures (“SOPs”) imposed by the Government, the event was attended by the YDP Kelab Alam KeTSA, YBhg Datuk Mohd Haniff Bin Hassan, Assistant Director of Strategic Communications at SEDA, Encik Syeikh Mohd Iqbal Bin Mohd Yusof, Senior Manager of Stakeholder Management at Malakoff, Tuan Hj Md Yuha Bin Ismail and the Headmaster of RALK, Ustaz Zahid Hassan. This is the first time Malakoff, KeTSA and SEDA have joined hands in driving forward such an initiative that is meant to foster the spirit of giving back to the community among its employees. Aside from the ‘buka puasa’ treat and the donation to RALK, Malakoff also surprised the students by handing out ‘duit raya’ hence, radiating the entire atmosphere of the event as they were completely taken off guard and were left feeling overwhelmed. “A lot of the students here have been orphans since they were much younger, while some come from underprivileged families with limited resources and finances to go around. Our intention is to ensure that no matter what their circumstances may be, they will not be left behind when it comes to education. Therefore, we are truly grateful to receive such donation as we want to provide the best facilities and education to these students”, explained Ustaz Zahid Hassan. “Furthermore, events such as these will give the students a chance to showcase their talent and encourage them to socialise and mingle with people outside of their circle. With that said, on behalf of RAKL, I would like to say thank you to Malakoff, KeTSA and SEDA for organizing this.” This programme is part Malakoff’s Corporate Social Responsibility series where its activities continue to be a cornerstone of our foundation for sustainable development, as we work closely with our stakeholders to further enhance our close working relationship for the betterment of the energy industry.

The Malakoff Coral Planting and Reef Clean-Up Project 2015 held from 28 to 30 August 2015, was aimed at highlighting the importance of coral in the marine ecosystem and to raise awareness and support from the local community on the threats that they are facing. The project was launched by Director of Research and Resource Inventory Department of JTLM, Abdul Muntalib bin Juli, who acknowledged Malakoff’s on-going effort of championing the rehabilitation of coral. “This is the fifth year of our collaboration with Malakoff involving the marine ecosystem. We have received positive feedbacks on the previous programs and this has spurred Malakoff to continue working with us on this noble effort.” “This year, the project is carried out in the coastal waters of Pulau Aur, Mersing, Johor. Pulau Aur is an important coral nursery in Malaysia as it has a conducive environment for the coral to propagate. According to statistics, it is the habitat of at least 183 types of corals and 232 reef-fish species. Pulau Aur is also the largest island in a group of 3 islands that reside in the Pulau Aur Marine Park,” added Abdul Muntalib in his speech. At the event, a contribution of RM30,000 from Malakoff was also handed out to Abdul Muntalib as the representative from JTLM for the project. During the 3-day event, 20 divers from JTLM and Malakoff participated in the cleaning of ghost nets and coral planting in the coastal waters of Pulau Aur. Total of 20 frames submerged into the coastal waters where divers planted coral nubbins to conserve the coral in the area. The Pulau Aur community, consisting of fishermen, students, private agencies and tourists also participated in marine awareness programs and were briefed on the importance of corals to the marine ecosystem. A special session symbolically called “Merdeka Dive” was carried out on 30th August, where the divers hoisted the Jalur Gemilang underwater during a reef clean-up to mark the celebration of Malaysia’s 58 years of independence. Speaking of the project, Chief Executive Officer of Malakoff, Dato’ Sri Syed Faisal Albar said the continuity of the project reflected Malakoff’s profound commitment to the Environment. “We are pleased with the enthusiastic involvement of the local communities in the Malakoff Coral Planting and Reef Clean-Up Project. Such collaboration with JTLM enables the communities to be a part of the project’s success while allowing us to build meaningful engagements with them.” “Malakoff’s previous environmental efforts in Pulau Mentinggi, Johor have generated positive impact to the community and the marine biodiversity in the surrounding areas. With the strong interest in conserving the ecosystem shown by the community in Pulau Aur, I’m positive that the same result can be replicated here,” he added. As a result of its commitment to the Environment, Malakoff has previously received several regional and national CSR awards on its environment efforts, namely the prestigious Anugerah Langkawi (2014) and Environment Week Special Appreciation (2013) by NRE, CSR of the Year Award (2013) by MIM, Asia Responsible Entrepreneurship Awards on Green Leadership (2013), Appreciation for Habitat Restoration Initiatives in conjunction with World Ocean Day (2012) by NRE and Prime Minister’s CSR Award in Environment (2010).

Sharing important news and updates for you and the community Back Nurturing good values with "Melentur Buluh" 6 May 2012 Deep within the heart of the oil palm plantation in Mukim Serkat, lies a small and quaint school where 71 students converge daily in their quest to gain knowledge. This group of students was definitely privileged as Malakoff has chosen them to carry out this year’s Melentur Buluh program. Following last year’s success story at SK Andek Mori, where Malakoff staff, together with the school’s students and staff, carried out gotong-royong to spruce up the place and Malakoff contributed books for the school library, the same program was carried out at SK Seri Sinaran Chokoh this year. The morning rain didn’t dampen the spirits of 20 Malakoff staff and the schoolchildren as they joined forces during the gotong-royong to clean and beautify the school compound. The school store, that housed used books and sports equipment, were cleared and re-arranged neatly. Classrooms were given a fresh coat of paint to liven up the room, making it more conducive for the children to study. A set of recycle bins was also donated to the school to encourage and teach the children on the importance of 3R – reduce, reuse, recycle – in environmental conservation. The children were very excited and eager to practice the recycling lessons that they learn in the Civic Studies using the donated recycle bins. Representatives from Jabatan Bomba Pontian and Bahagian Trafik Balai Polis Pontian were also present to impart valuable lessons and tips on fire and road safety to the schoolchildren. A demonstration to extinguish fire was carried out by the Jabatan Bomba representatives and some teachers and schoolchildren were given first-hand opportunity to extinguish fire. Speaking after the event, headmistress of SK Seri Sinaran Chokoh, Puan Sapiah Sapari praised Malakoff for coming up with a useful program that is beneficial to the schoolchildren. “Lessons on recycle, fire and road safety are taught in school under a subject called Civic Studies but it is only in theory. With the Melentur Buluh program, they get to experience and practice it in real life.” “Gotong-royong is also a good deed that should be instilled in the schoolchildren. Ever since the school employs cleaners to handle the housekeeping of the school, the children are not exposed to the teamwork spirit that comes with the act of gotong-royong. With today’s gotong-royong session, the children could see for themselves how it is done and were able to work as a team and now know that huge task is easier and feasible if it is done together.” As one of Malakoff’s adopted schools in Pontian, SK Seri Sinaran Chokoh also received RM20,000 annually under the Malakoff EduFund grant. The grant is one of Malakoff’s corporate social responsibility initiatives under its flagship, the Malakoff Community Partnerships. The cheque was presented by En Yusop Abdul Rashid, Assistant Vice President, Corporate Affairs and External Relations, to Puan Sapiah during the closing ceremony of Melentur Buluh program. Penghulu Mukim Serkat, Tok Zaini was also present as a guest-of-honour at the ceremony. En Yusop said that the program was designed to nurture and instill a safety culture in these schoolchildren, as part of Malakoff’s Commitment to Community & Education. He added that the program also aimed to create awareness to common good values or “nilai-nilai murni” from young, through healthy social activities.

Enhancing the quality of life and empowering the communities where we operate Back Sustainability Statement 2017 Malakoff Annual Report 2017 - Sustainability Statement Globally, guided by the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, governments and organisations are working towards reducing energy intensity, mainly contributed by improved efficiencies, especially in industrial and transportation sectors. Some of the efforts to reduce energy emissions include adoption of clean technologies, the imminent shift to renewables and introduction of innovative product and policy solutions. The coordinated and consolidated efforts across the world are expected to limit the rise in global temperature at 2 degrees Celsius. Malaysia has also pledged for a voluntary reduction of up to 40% of emissions intensity per unit of GDP by the year 2020 compared to her emission levels in 2005. In trying to meet this target, Malaysia continuously review the National Energy Policy to ensure secure, reliable, cost-effective and sustainable energy. Most recently, the government has moved from its four-fuel to five-fuel policy, to include RE along with oil, gas, coal, and hydro. The Eleventh Malaysia Plan (11MP) has also set an ambitious target to build the RE capacity to 2,080 MW by 2020. Globally, scalability and affordability of renewable energy are improving due to advancement in technology. The European utilities are moving away from coal even during the time when coal prices are going down. Of late, banks and long term investors such as pension funds are becoming more selective towards environmental friendly products and services. Due to rapid advancements in technology, Solar PV, wind (onshore) and biomass project tariffs are getting as competitive as conventional plants. Against this backdrop, we believe that our role as a credible power and water producer is even more critical to not only support the aspirations of the government, but to also accelerate our efforts towards improving our energy-mix and energy efficiencies, while closely reviewing at our operations in all our key markets to effectively manage our ESG impacts. Towards this end, our commitment will go beyond embracing sustainable business practices. We will work with our stakeholders including authorities, investors, partners, service providers, employees and communities to adequately meet the present needs of power and water. We will also take greater responsibility to ensure that our current actions will positively contribute towards improving access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for the future generations. Moving forward, we will continuously identify and capitalise on common synergies, strengths and resources to integrate sustainability into our day-to-day business operations and behaviour. Our end objective is to improve our operational efficiencies and deliver long-term growth and value for all our stakeholders. Our second Sustainability Statement (“the Statement”) documents various policies, programmes and commitments in relation to our ESG impacts. The Statement also outlines our approach to improving and growing our business operations in a responsible and sustainable manner, with unwavering commitment to our stakeholders and other interested parties.
