Sharing important news and updates for you and the community Back Malakoff Energy Expert Series Explores Ideas to Boost Malaysia's Renewable Energy Sector 11 November 2010 Malakoff Corporation Berhad (Malakoff) today hosted the third Malakoff Community Partnerships Energy Expert Series exploring the enabling effect feed-in tariffs (FiT) are anticipated to have in the creation of a sustainable Renewable Energy (RE) sector in Malaysia. The lecture series featured David Jacobs, a widely recognised expert on International best-practice for the legal and regulatory framework for RE, and co-author of “Powering the Green Economy – the feed-in tariff handbook” and “Feed-in Tariffs: the policy path to 100% renewable”, followed by insights by the second keynote speaker Brian Cox, Executive Officer of the Bioenergy Association of New Zealand, with over 30 years of experience, split equally across public policy, commercial development of energy projects and leading energy based industry associations. Speaking at the opening, Malakoff’s Chairman, Tan Sri Abdul Halim Ali said, “The Energy Expert Series is part of Malakoff’s continuous commitment to promote the development and exchange of knowledge in the area of sustainable energy, in line with the Government’s 10th Malaysia Plan.” “Malakoff firmly believes that investing in the promotion of dialogue on topics relating to Green Energy is an important part of our strategy to change the mindset of the industry, our own people at Malakoff and even our business partners. As a company and an industry leader, we truly believe that Renewable Energy has an important role to play in Malaysia’s energy mix in the medium and longer term,” he added. The Malakoff’s Energy Expert Series also featured an expert panel discussion chaired by Ir Ahmad Hadri Haris, Chief Technical Advisor of the National Malaysian Building Integrated Photovoltaic (MBIPV) Project, a collaborative project between the Government of Malaysia and United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). A key component of Malakoff’s flagship Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Platform - the Malakoff Community Partnerships, the Energy Expert Series serves as a platform for Malaysian policy makers and industry players to proactively engage with global experts on topics relevant to the country’s energy sector. This talk is the third edition of the lecture series. The first two editions featured prominent experts in FiT and RE such as Hans-Josef Fell, Member of the German Bundestag, Dr. Wuthipong Suponthana, the Managing Director of Leonics, Thailand and Daniel Ruoss, the Managing Director of Envision Solar Energy Solutions, Australia. “The recent announcement by the Prime Minister in his Budget 2011 speech of a number of incentives to promote Renewable Energy will provide the catalyst to boost private sector. Moreover, with the upcoming Renewable Energy Act, its associated feed-in tariffs, opportunities to participate in the green revolution should not be considered as limited to industry, as it is equally applicable to any grid connected location across the country,” said Tan Sri Halim. During the talk, Jacobs, a Distinguished Visitor under the Brain Gain Malaysia program by the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation and currently hosted by the Institute for Energy Policy And Research (IEPRe) at Universiti Tenaga Nasional (UNITEN), clarified about the key support mechanisms utilised internationally to support the growth of the RE sector. Jacobs detailed a comprehensive analysis of the difference in quantity-based support mechanism versus price-based or FiT-based mechanism, which when assessed in terms of effectiveness, efficiency and investment security clearly supports the Government’s decision to adopt the latter. Commending Malaysia’s foresight in articulating a RE policy and plan, Jacobs noted: “Malaysia’s target of producing 5.5 % of total generation capacity from renewable sources by 2015 is truly commendable. The expansion of the sector will not only act to reduce the unit costs of renewable energy to consumers, but importantly the multiplier effect of these investments will offer a broad range of benefits to the Malaysian economy through the reduction in costs for fuel and importantly the avoidance of costs that would otherwise be incurred through environmental damage.” Additionally, Jacobs offered Germany’s experience with RE and FiT as a model where the unit cost for RE from free-standing solar photovoltaic systems had fallen from approximately € 0 .50/kWh in 2000 to € 0 25/kWh today. Further adding the significant positive impact the RE sector in Germany has had, Jacobs highlighted that the sector offered employment to over 300,000 people. Closer to home, in Malaysia, the implementation of the National Energy Model is expected to achieve RM70billion RE business revenue and provide employment opportunities to over 52,000 by 2020.The production of RE would lead to greater green collar jobs opportunities and achieve the objective of the new economic model by stimulating local manufacturing.

Sharing important news and updates for you and the community Back Malakoff Embarks on Implementing ISO 37001 Anti-Bribery Management System ("ABMS") 24 June 2019 Malakoff Corporation Berhad (Malakoff) recently organised a Corporate Liability & ISO37001 Anti-Bribery Management System (ABMS) Awareness Training and Workshop which was held on 25 -26 June 2019 at Malakoff Academy of Excellence (MAX) Auditorium. The session was carried out to introduce to staff and have them familiarised with the new standard of ISO certification that Malakoff will be adopting soon. The session also provided awareness to all Head of Divisions and Departments (HODs) on the amended Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Act 2009 with regards to bribery, corruption and corporate liability. ABMS is the latest ISO certification that Malakoff is embarking on, in addition to our existing ISO management system certifications on ISO 9001 Quality Management System, ISO 14001 Environmental Management System, ISO 27001 Information Security Management System, OHSAS 18001 & MS 1722 Occupational Safety and Health Management System that have been successfully implemented throughout the organization. En Mohd Nur Lokman Samingan, MACC Senior Assistant Commissioner, gave a talk entitled “Enhancing Corporate Governance by Understanding Legal Liabilities” with explaining the nature of corruption and the new provision in Sections 16A and 17A of the Act. Starting from June 2020, he stated that the new provision will be enforced to enable the prosecution of commercial organisations involved in corruption. This new provision is in fulfilment to the international requirements under Article 26 of the United Nations Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC), which refers to the liability of legal persons. Previously, the MACC Act only focused on the prosecution of a natural person, i.e. individuals involved in corruption. Under the new provision, a commercial organisation could be prosecuted if a person associated with the organisation commits a corrupt act to enable the organisation to acquire or retain a contract or interest. Upon conviction, the organisation will be liable to a fine of not less than ten times the sum or value of the gratification or RM1,000,000, whichever is higher, or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 20 years or both. “Therefore, commercial organisations are required to create policies and have adequate controls to prevent corruption in its organisation.” “This is because, if the organisation is found liable because it does not have adequate procedures, the Management of the organisation including Directors and Managers may also be found individually liable for the offence committed by the organisation,” he added. Further to this, a trainer from SIRIM Malaysia, En Azhar Dollah, explained in depth on the ABMS which will be implemented by Malakoff. He also conducted a workshop with Malakoff representatives on Clause 4 of the ABMS on “Context of the Organisation” which covers the organisation’s internal and external factors, stakeholder expectations, ABMS scoping within Malaysia, and bribery risk assessments. Risk assessments are carried out in line with our existing Enterprise Risk Management Framework (“ERMPF”) which is based on the ISO 31000:2009 Risk Management Principles and Guidelines. During the session, participants performed a Bribery Risk Assessment (BRA) and shared several corruption-prone scenarios and ways to curb its occurrence within various departments/divisions such as Human Capital & Admin, Corporate Services, Procurement, Corporate Affairs & Stakeholder Management, Local Generation and Group Finance & Accounts. At the end of the workshop, the participants came up with the first draft of the BRA that will be further expanded to form part of Malakoff’s ABMS.

The schools are Sekolah Kebangsaan Sungai Durian, Sekolah Kebangsaan Serkat, Sekolah Kebangsaan Andek Mori, Sekolah Kebangsaan Permas Kelapa, Sekolah Kebangsaan Seri Sinaran Chokoh, Sekolah Kebangsaan Sungai Boh and Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan (Cina) Pei Chiao. The seminar is a part of a series of education initiatives planned for schools in Mukim Serkat this year. Earlier in April, Malakoff launched “Jom Sarap” at these schools to provide the school children with nutritious breakfast to improve their focus in class and also to encourage them to come early to school. Speaking of the seminar, Chief Executive Officer of Malakoff, Dato’ Ahmad Fuaad Kenali believed that the event would provide more confidence to the students and motivate them to work harder to prepare for their UPSR in September. “Our on-going educational programmes for the students demonstrate our commitment to our corporate social responsibility for the local communities where we operate. We believe education is key to development, that is why we are putting in our effort to help these students to do better in their studies,” he added. During the three-day seminar, the students were taught on time management, study tips, methods on answering questions and other exam-related techniques. On the last day of the seminar, parents of the UPSR students were encouraged to attend so that they could carry on motivating their children post-event. As preparing for a major examination could be quite stressful on the young ones, parents were reminded to continuously support their children to cope with the pressure. The Principal of Sekolah Kebangsaan Sg Boh, Mrs. Zarina binti Sidik, said that the seminar was very useful for students who are currently preparing for the UPSR. She also acknowledged Malakoff’s effort in helping the students to achieve academic excellence. “The students thoroughly enjoyed the programme and gained a lot of exposure and knowledge from it. The seminar impacted positively on the way they approach their studies,” she said. The seminar ended with a presentation of certificates of participation to all students.

Sharing important news and updates for you and the community Back Visited Sekolah Anak Yatim Al-Ansar in Batang Berjuntai 19 July 2009 I have been to a few orphanages and schools for orphans and the under privileged but my experiences before was not enough to prepare me for what would greet me at Sekolah Anak Yatim Al-Ansar. The ride from the office took us a more than an hour. Batang Berjuntai is not really a place of public interest nor is it a place to spend the weekend getaway. After a few kilometers of driving on uneven kampung roads, we came to the mentioned school. The morning classes were still in session but the place was quiet and serene. There were even a few trees bearing fruits for this year’s season. Ustazah Hafizah, greeted and invited us in for some food and drinks before we proceeded to looking around the school area. She uttered the names of some Malakoff staff that were still remembered and some who had still maintained a good relationship with the orphanage until today. “The school and its residents are very grateful to them and the other staff for their visits and contributions to the school,” she said. First stop was the school’s library. Nothing to shout about, the books were neatly arranged - books on Islamic teachings and reference books. “We would appreciate if we can get more reference books or dictionaries for the library as we are lacking in these materials,” added Ustazah Hafizah, who thought that the library is the best gift ever for the kids there. We were then brought to the classrooms where the children were being taught by the teachers who were only given allowances or ‘saguhati’ for teaching at the school. They didn’t have the luxury to scribble on whiteboards using marker pens. It’s not worth wasting hard-earned money on such luxuries. As long as there were blackboards and chalks for them to write with, they will continue to educate the children in whatever manner they can to ensure that they will have a brighter future after leaving the school. Looking through the missing pieces of the glasses on the Naco window panes, I could see eagerness in the kids, sitting on the rickety chairs and writing on the shabby-looking desks, trying to learn and change their fate in life. Most of them were orphans; some were troubled kids, sent by their families here to be more disciplined and to return to the teachings of Islam. Moving on to the first floor where the boys’ dormitories were situated, the wooden structures were a little dilapidated but they were not complaining. At least with the wall fans contributed by some noble souls, they were able to sleep at night, albeit sharing the room with 20 other people. Clothes were hanging all over from the walls and ceilings. Sometimes when it’s raining heavily, the rain water would seep through the ceilings and walls, destroying the wooden structures. The girl's dormitories are similar with the boy's dormitories, where we were welcomed by dilapidated walls and floors, dangerous-looking DIY electrical wiring, missing pieces of glasses on the Naco windows, and old torn rubber mats. At night, they would combine mattresses that were available for them to sleep on. The washing room area for the girl’s dormitories was a different story. Toilet doors were missing. They bathed in a common area from a few large ‘kolah’ that were concealed by concrete walls - probably a little different of how things were done at home, but they were contented with what they have and put them to good use. These are just some of the few things that we can help contribute to improve their way of living and learning areas. A few hanging racks, some pieces of glass for the Naco windows, student reference books and dictionaries for their library, mattresses, rubber mats. These are not luxury items but are basic daily necessities. Therefore for the coming gotong-royong, we planned to do at the school next month. Volunteers are welcome to clean-up the place with us, do some easy DIY fixing, well, basically visit the orphans to show them that there are still people in this world who care for their well-being. At the same time, you are also welcome to contribute basic food stuff like rice, sugar, cooking oil and flour. Anyone who wants to pay their fidiyah can also do it at the school during our gotong-royong. As for clothing items, Ustazah said, the residents’ age are mostly between 9 to 17 years old, and among the contributions that are most welcomed by the school are T-shirts, long pants, track bottoms, baju melayu, baju kurung and telekung for prayers. We will need everyone’s help in making this charity event a success. For those who would like to contribute clothing items or food stuff, kindly bring the items that you would like to donate to the school on your own this coming August 15. If you can’t make it, kindly ask a colleague who will be joining the gotong-royong to deliver the items for you. In the spirit of charity, we would like to have as many staff as possible to join us for the event and you are welcomed to bring your family members along to help out with the gotong-royong. It can be an eye-opener for them to see the living conditions of these orphans and appreciate what they have at home.
