It's our fourth round-up of environmental news for 2025, with the good folks from environmental journalism portal Macaranga. Co-founders Wong Siew Lyn and Law Yao Hua join us to look back at news from April 2025, first focussing on the troubling news about beheadings of Bornean pygmy elephants in Sabah, and the possible reasons behind these gruesome killings. Next we dissect the dispute between YP Olio Sdn Bhd and the Temoq Orang Asli community in Pahang, which recently ended with what is being described as a "landmark settlement", though still at great expense for the community and nature. Finally, the first National Climate Change Action Council (NCCAC) meeting of 2025 was held last week, chaired by the Prime Minister - what were some of the outcomes of this high-level meeting? Yao Hua and Siew Lyn get us up to speed.Image Credit: Shutterstock, Center for Orang Asli Concerns (COAC) | FacebookSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
MONEY FM 89.3 - Prime Time with Howie Lim, Bernard Lim & Finance Presenter JP Ong
From undertaking sub-contracting works as an operator for limestone mines to becoming a key producer of high-grade iron ore concentrate – we’re going to take you though the ins and outs of SGX-listed Malaysian miner Southern Alliance Mining today. The story takes us back to 2001, with the incorporation of Southern Alliance Mining’s subsidiary Honest Sam. Then, the firm was primarily involved in subcontracting works for limestone mines in the Malaysian states of Pahang and Perak. Seven years later in 2008, the company obtained the right to become the mining operator of an open mine pit in Johor called the Chaah Mine. The mine pit allows for the exploration, extraction and processing of iron ore that could be used by pipe coating companies in the oil and gas industry to prevent corrosion in sub-sea pipes. Fast forward to today, Southern Alliance Mining not only offers iron ore for pipe coating. It also ventured into iron ore concentrates to diversify business risks, exporting them to markets such as China, before selling the rest to local steel mills in Malaysia. It currently has approximately 60,000 tonnes of iron ore concentrates, not including pipe coating materials, and has produced and sold a total 6.3 million tonnes of iron ore products between 2008 and July 2021. The firm recently also reported its earnings for the six months ended January. Revenue declined 23.8% on the year to about RM70.3 million amid weaker iron ore prices as well as slowing demand for China’s steel industry – so how concerned should we be about this? But what is perhaps more exciting about Southern Alliance Mining is how it is positioning itself for the future. For one thing, the firm had in April 2023 ventured into rare earth mining after inking two agreements to purchase stakes in iron absorption clay rare-earth mines in Malaysia. Again – what was the rationale behind the move, and how will the move bolster the firm from fluctuations in iron ore prices? On Under the Radar, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Lim Wei Hung, Executive Director and Chief Operating Officer of Southern Alliance Mining.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We catch up with Adam Farhan, the Director of environmental watchdog RimbaWatch, for updates on some of the research and analysis they have been focussing on over the last few months. First, we look back at the State of the Malaysian Rainforest 2024 report which was released back in May, which found that up to 3.2 million hectares of Malaysian rainforests are at risk – an area nearly the size of Pahang. Then, we turn our attention to two recent reports released by RimbaWatch, first on the proposed oil and gas project in the Tun Mustapha Marine Park (TMP) which is sparking serious environmental and human rights concerns, and finally we look at the Balingian coal mine over in Sarawak, and the climate, biodiversity and transparency-related issues that have been raised in connection with the project.Image credits: Shutterstock, WWF Malaysia/Eric MadejaSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Summary: Where are rafflesia found? Join Kiersten as she visits Southeast Asia (not literally) to find out. For my hearing impaired listeners, a complete transcript of this podcast follows the show notes on Podbean “Most of the world's largest flowers (genus Rafflesia) are now on the brink of extinction,” by Pastor Malabrigo Jr, Adriane B. Tobias, Joko Witono, Sofi Mursidawati, Agus Susatya, Mat Eunuch Siti-Munirah, Adhityo Wicaksono, Reza Raihandhany, Sarah Edwards, and Chris J. Thorogood. https://doi.org/10.1002/ppp3.10431 Music written and performed by Katherine Camp Transcript (Piano music plays) Kiersten - This is Ten Things I Like About…a ten minute, ten episode podcast about unknown or misunderstood wildlife. (Piano music stops) Welcome to Ten Things I Like About… I'm Kiersten, your host, and this is a podcast about misunderstood or unknown creatures in nature. Some we'll find right out side our doors and some are continents away but all are fascinating. This podcast will focus ten, ten minute episodes on different animals and their amazing characteristics. Please join me on this extraordinary journey, you won't regret it. The second thing I like about rafflesia is where it is found. This genus of plant has a very small distribution. Let's talk about where you can find these amazing flowers. You probably remember from last week's introductory episode that rafflesia our found in southeast Asia. None have been found outside this region at the recording of this podcast in 2024, although researchers believe that there are more within this region that have yet to be seen and described by science. The majority of rafflesia are found in the Philippines, Borneo, Java, Sumatra, and Peninsular Malaysia. For your reference, Peninsular Malaysia refers to the western portion of Malaysia, or the island portion, and consists of 11 states and two federal territories. Let's take a look and where specific species of rafflesia are found. Before I get started, please excuse any mispronunciation of country names. I mean no offense. Rafflesia arnoldii, the largest species of rafflesia with a spread of three feet in diameter, is found in Malaysia in Borneo and Sarawak. This rafflesia has two varieties, the second variety is Rafflesia arnoldii atjehensis which is found in Indonesia on West Kalimantan and Sumatra. Rafflesia aurantia is fund in the Philippines in Luzon and the Quirino Province. Rafflesia azlanii is found on Peninsular Malaysia in Perak and Pahang. Rafflesia baletei is fund in the Phillipones on Southern Luzon and the Camarines Sur Province. Rafflesia bengkuluensis is found in Indonesia in Souther Sumatra. Rafflesia cantleyi is found in Peninsular Malaysia and on Tioman Island. Rafflesia consueloae, the smallest rafflesia at only 9.7cm in width, is found in the Philippines in Luzon, Nueva Ecija Province. Rafflesia gadutensis is found in Indonesia on the Western coast of Sumatra and Benkulu. Rafflesia hasseltii is found in Indonesia's central Sumatra. Rafflesia keithii can be found in Malaysia's Borneo and Sabah and Indonesia's East Kalimantan. Rafflesia kerrii is found in Peninsular Thailand as well as Peninsular Malaysia. Rafflesia lagascae is found in Luzon in the Philippines. Rafflesia lawangensis can be found in North Sumatra and the Gunung Leuser National Park of Indonesia. Rafflesia leonardii is found in Luzon, Phillipines. Rafflesia lobata can be seen in Panay, Philippines. Rafflesia manillana lives in Samar Philippines. Rafflesia meijeri blooms in North Sumatra, Indonesia. Rafflesia micropylora is also found in North Sumatra, Indonesia. Rafflesia mira and Rafflesia mixta are both found in Mindanao, Philippines. Rafflesia patna is found in Java, Indonesia. Rafflesia philippensis is, you guessed it, found in the Philippines, Luzon Island, Quezon Province, Mt. Banahaw. This flower also goes by R. Banahaw or R. banahawensis in an homage to where it grows. Rafflesia pricei is found in Borneo, Sabah, possibly N. Sarawak, Brunei, and Kalimantan. Rafflesia rochussenii lives in Western Java and Sumatra, Indonesia. Rafflesia schadenbergiana and Rafflesia speciosa are both found in the Philippines in Mindanao and Panay respectively. Rafflesia tengku-adlinii is found in Borneo and Sabah Malaysia. Rafflesia tuan-mudae is also found in Malaysia but in West Sarawak. Rafflesia verrucosa resides in Mindanao, Philippines. Rafflesia zollingeriana is found in eastern Java, Indonesia. The remaining species of rafflesia that we currently know of have incomplete taxonomic identification, so we are not sure if they are all seperate species from the one described above, but they are all found in Indonesia or Peninsular Malaysia. Thanks for hanging in there listeners, I didn't list these all out just so I could say rafflesia a lot, although I have to admit it is fun to say, I want to highlight how many places each specie is found. If you didn't tune it out, you may have noticed that most species are only found in one place. Only five species are found on more than one island. Since most of these flowers are found on islands, the theory of island biogeography applies. This theory, in a nutshell, says that larger islands should host a larger amount of species than smaller islands because larger islands are, well, larger. This holds true for the majority of islands that host rafflesia, but when dealing with nature, there is always an exception to the rule. This is true of rafflesia. The island of Luzon is seven times smaller than Borneo yet both of them host the same amount of rafflesia. Scientists are not sure why yet, but research into this is ongoing. When discussing distribution of this plant, we do have to keep in mind that scientists are still discovering new species or discovering known species in new locations, so our knowledge is continually evolving. Most rafflesias are found in a rainforest habitat on the island where they bloom and that is due to the nature of the host plant upon which they rely. The vines in the genus Tetrastigma seem to be the only vines that host these amazing flowers and they are mostly found in rainforests. Now that we know what rafflesia is and where to find it, next week we will delve into its unusual life cycle. Thank you for listening to episode two of rafflesia. The locations where this incredible flower is found is my second favorite thing about them. If you're enjoying this podcast please recommend me to friends and family and take a moment to give me a rating on whatever platform your listening. It will help me reach more listeners and give the animals I talk about an even better chance at change. So join me next week for another episode about Rafflesia. (Piano Music plays) This has been an episode of Ten Things I like About with Kiersten and Company. Original music written and performed by Katherine Camp, piano extraordinaire.

With May almost behind us, it's time once more for our monthly Macaranga wrap-up show, where we give you a rundown of the top environmental news from the month past, curated by the co-founders of the environmental journalism portal Macaranga - Law Yao Hua and Wong Siew Lyn. This month, we tackle three topics, first we discuss Endangered Species Day - celebrated annually on the third Friday of May - where we'll look at new research published on some of Malaysia's endangered species. Next we turn our attention to "Orangutan Diplomacy" and Malaysia's attempt to show she is a producer of sustainable palm oil, and committed to forest and environmental sustainability, while also discussing a new oil palm plantation in the works in Pahang, located just about 15 km south of Taman Negara. Finally, there was a recent ruling by the Taiping High Court that Kampung Cunex in Gerik in Perak will be gazetted as an Orang Asli Reserve, but not the 'forest-at- large' - what does this mean? Yao Hua and Siew Lyn help break it down for us.Image Credit: Center for Orang Asli Concerns (COAC), Facebook & ShutterstockSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Ecotourism & Conservation Society of Malaysia (ECOMY) is an environmental NGO that is focussed on conserving Malaysia's unique habitats, plants and wildlife, and to actively promote and pursue sustainable tourism as one key element in conservation. The group, founded by leading naturalists in Malaysia, have also been working on several projects with the Orang Asli Bateq tribe of Kampung Aur, who live along the Tembeling River in Kuala Tahan, Pahang. The initiatives include assisting them to gain access to clean water and proper sanitation, providing the community with solar lamps to assist with their energy needs, and even supplying humanitarian aid during the monsoon season. Another recent project has been to train the community's youth to become certified tour guides, to promote sustainable tourism in the area. We catch up with Andrew Sebastian, the Founder & Chief Executive Officer of ECOMY, to discuss the group's latest initiative, which saw 10 Orang Asli youths receiving training and doing fieldwork to become certified tour guides, to generate income for themselves and their community.Image Credit: Ecotourism & Conservation Society Malaysia FB PageSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We are at the end of 2023 – as always, it's been quite a year for our environment and natural resources, so we take a look back at the year past with the co-founders of environmental journalism portal Macaranga, Wong Siew Lyn and Law Yao Hua, who will remind us about some of the big stories from 2023. In particular, we discuss the achievements of the (now former) Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change Ministry (NRECC) and the challenges that remain ahead, before we focus on Pahang, and some of the state's achievements, including the gazettement of the Al-Sultan Abdullah Royal Tigers Reserve. We also discuss our oceans and the increase of Marine Protected Areas in Malaysia, before taking on rare earth mining, which is big business for countries with reserves like ours, but how are we working on ensuring transparency and accountability in the rare earth industry? Then we discuss the European Union's new regulation to curb the EU market's impact on global deforestation and forest degradation, or the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) and how that could impact Malaysia, before finally discussing how a changing climate has impacted our food security in Malaysia.Image Credit(s): Shutterstock/Paman Aheri, Zeti AkhzarKementerian EkonomiReef Check MalaysiaLynasWorld Animal FoundationSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Malaysia: Where the Mangosteen Reigns Supreme The mangosteen is a tropical fruit native to Southeast Asia, and Malaysia is one of its largest producers and consumers. Malaysians love mangosteens for their sweet, tangy flavor and juicy flesh. The fruit is also prized for its many health benefits, including its high antioxidant content and anti-inflammatory properties. Malaysians enjoy mangosteens in a variety of ways. The most common way to eat a mangosteen is fresh, simply by peeling the fruit and popping the segments into your mouth. Mangosteens can also be used to make smoothies, juices, ice cream, and other desserts. Here are some unique Malaysian experiences with mangosteen: Mangosteen season: Malaysians eagerly await the mangosteen season, which typically lasts from June to August. During this time, mangosteens are plentiful and affordable. Mangosteen festivals: Some Malaysian states, such as Pahang and Johor, hold mangosteen festivals each year to celebrate the fruit. These festivals feature stalls selling fresh and processed mangosteen products, as well as cultural performances and other activities. Mangosteen-flavored food and drinks: Mangosteen is a popular flavor for Malaysian food and drinks. Some examples include mangosteen ice cream, mangosteen cake, and mangosteen juice. Mangosteen as a traditional remedy: Mangosteen has been used in traditional Malaysian medicine for centuries to treat a variety of ailments, such as fever, diarrhea, and skin infections. Here are some personal stories from Malaysians about their experiences with mangosteen: "Mangosteens are my favorite fruit," says Siti, a 25-year-old from Kuala Lumpur. "I love their sweet and tangy flavor and their juicy texture. I especially love eating them fresh during the mangosteen season." "I grew up eating mangosteens in my grandmother's garden," says Ali, a 60-year-old from Johor. "She taught me how to pick the ripest fruits and how to peel them without getting the juice on my hands. Mangosteens are a special fruit for me because they remind me of my childhood." "I use mangosteen in my cooking and baking," says May, a 35-year-old from Penang. "I love the unique flavor that it adds to my dishes. I also make mangosteen juice for my family and friends. It's a refreshing and healthy drink." Mangosteens are a beloved fruit in Malaysia, and their unique flavor and health benefits make them a special part of Malaysian culture.

As we close yet another month in 2023, we also look back at some of the top environmental news from August, with the help of the co-founders of environmental journalism portal, Macaranga. Today, we're tackling three topics in particular, first the Nature Conservation Agreement in Sabah, considered by many to be a controversial carbon project - we'll break down what it's about, and why there are questions surrounding it. Next we discuss what happened at the IPS-MPS '23 - The Joint Meeting of the International Primatological Society (IPS) and the Malaysian Primatological Society (MPS), which was held in Kuching, which was themed: "Primates and People: A New Horizon." Finally we cheer the good news that came out in late July, where Pahang will gazette 134,183ha of land for the Al-Sultan Abdullah Royal Tigers Reserve to boost wildlife conservation efforts - great news for our dwindling tiger population. Helping us to break all this down are the co-founders of Macaranga, Wong Siew Lyn and Law Yao Hua.Image Credit: 123RF/International Primatological Society (IPS)/Global Tiger ForumSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The history of Freemasonry in the Eastern Archipelago is closely related to the East India Company, when their administrators, sailors and soldiers formed Masonic lodges in the region. With a territory covering Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand, and encompassing 5 different languages, District Grand Master of Eastern Archipelago, RW Bro Dato Jeyaraj Ratnaswamy shares his thoughts on how Freemasonry unites Brethren from diverse cultures. "...we are also of all Nations, Tongues, Kindreds, and Languages, and are resolv'd against all Politicks, as what never yet conduc'd to the Welfare of the Lodge, nor ever will." (The Constitutions of the Free-Masons, 1723) RW Bro Dato Jeyaraj Ratnaswamy was born in Kuala Lumpur, attended the University of Sunderland, England and then the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, Australia where he received a Masters in Finance. He was initiated in Freemasonry in 1986 and was installed as the RW District Grand Master & Grand Superintendent by the Assistant Grand Master Sir David Hugh Wootton, on 20th February 2016. In 2009 he was bestowed with the honorific of “Dato” by the HRH Sultan of Pahang for his active participation business circles and supporting numerous charitable homes for the aged and orphanages, both in Malaysia and Overseas.

Tak Kenal Maka Tak Cinta is our monthly tourism-themed series on Earth Matters, which aims to highlight lesser-known ecotourism spots right here in Malaysia. Done in collaboration with the Ecotourism & Conservation Society Malaysia (ECOMY), we want to take you back to the great outdoors, and experience the many off-the-beaten-track nature spots our country has to offer. For this episode, we're heading to Merapoh, a small town in Lipis, Pahang, which is located next to the Pahang-Kelantan border. Merapoh is one of the lesser used entrances to Taman Negara National Park, and is a popular spot for spelunking activities, and is also known for its karst landscape. We explore the teeming biodiversity, trails, and waterways of this area with Andrew Sebastian, the Founder & Chief Executive Officer of ECOMY.Listen to our previous episodes in the series:Episode 1: Kuala TahanEpisode 2: Pulau Bangau in Teluk IntanEpisode 3: Bukit Batu Putih in Port DicksonEpisode 4: The Sultan Iskandar Marine Park & MoreImage Credit: ShutterstockSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Rundingan menaik taraf Perjanjian Kawasan Perdagangan Bebas Asean-China (ACFTA) amat penting untuk menjadikannya inklusif dan komprehensif. Sejauhmanakah komitmen memacu perdagangan bebas menyumbang kepada pemulihan ekonomi serantau? Diskusi Sabtu 9 malam.
RimbaWatch recently brought attention to the Department of Environment's (DOE) approval of an EIA for a palm oil project in Pahang, which amounts to 8,498ha. This project involves the deforestation of intact natural forests nearly twice the size of Putrajaya, and is the largest single palm oil project approved in Peninsular Malaysia in recent years. Why is this happening, considering the Malaysian Sustainable Palm Oil certification (MSPO) does not allow for deforestation occurring after 2020? We discuss the major issues related to this project, including how the EIA was approved without there being adequate measures to mitigate impacts that include unavoidable adverse impacts to the area's ecology and biodiversity.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cruise Control returns this week featuring an exclusive chat with Jaguar TCS Racing team principal James Barclay, as we caught up with the man during a recent visit to Seoul, Korea. Barclay discusses Jaguar's electric motorsport team as well as their future plans in pursuit of a sustainable electric revolution.Kicking off with some headlines from the week, we look ahead to locally assembled editions of the Mercedes C Class, which will be put together in Pekan, Pahang beginning this year. We also discuss the prospects of trialling electric buses on the island of Langkawi, and how it can help pave the way for more electric infrastructures country-wide.And we round off with Daniel's review of a refreshed variant of the Proton X70, now kitted with a brand new 1.5L turbocharged engine; proving to be a much better proposition compared to its predecessor.
HELANG BELAYAR DAN LENGGANG JANDA SILAT TERLAK TARI KG REDAN KUALA LIPIS PAHANG
Born in Sungai Koyan Felda in Pahang, Chef Wan moved to Kuala Lumpur when he was three years old. At the time, his father was part of the Royal Malaysian Air Force and his family lived at the Sungai Besi base. As the son of a Chinese Singaporean mother and a Malay father, he discovered his passion for entrepreneurship and food selling kuih on the air force base where his father worked. Despite studying to become an accountant, he quit his job to pursue his passion for food and cooking full-time. His perseverance earned him an associate degree in Professional Chef Training and Hotel Management from the California Culinary Academy, San Francisco, and a Ritz Escoffier Diploma (École Ritz Escoffier De Gastronomie Française) from the Ritz Hotel in Paris. Exuding a passion for all aspects of domestic living, Chef Wan has always been synonymous with the latest trends in wellness, cooking, entertaining and decorating. In his capacity as a motivational speaker, he constantly entertains and educates the Malaysian public about the latest trends in these areas using his unique humour and passion. We had a wonderful time finding the ingredients in Chinatown to prepare Chef Wan's Grandmother's Kerabu Udang (Prawn Salad), and then to Kiana's kitchen to make this special dish.

Doses of Malaysian Stories Thru' the Lenses & Senses of Deanna
Mountain resorts are a popular relaxation venue for most Malaysians as it is a place where we can get a short break from the heat. Today I'm introducing Cameron Highlands - a mountain resort located in the state of Pahang. Located about 1800 m above sea level, temperatures usually hinges between 14 - 20celsius. Well known for her tea plantations. it is an absolute must for visitors to pay a visit to the tea centers located in and around the mountain resorts. Enjoy a cuppa tea while "sipping" in the beautiful view of stretches' and stretchers of tea terraces. Besides that, Cameron Highlands is also well known for fresh vegetables, flowers and strawberries. The story of Cameron Highlands is still aplenty which I will be talking about in my future episodes.
