We are proud to share that MyDigital ID having 11.6 million users, approaching 12 million soon has signed a MOU with our CBASS Member, ProppyApp, today, witnessed by the Deputy Prime Minister YAB DATOโ€™ SERI DR. AHMAD ZAHID BIN HAMIDI.

This is a big step forward and I would like to invite you to share this win!! Woohoo!!!
Congrats to you and your team yap yik yee !!

๐Ÿ‘‰Digital IDs are an important fundamental component to realising a circular economy because it enables more trust in the exchanges between players . Without trust, the exchanges, transfers of assets, materials, products need to circulate value longer in society cannot flow as freely. This not only means more useful assets are being discarded, but also that the pockets of people who need these secondary, tertiary flows continue to miss out on tapping into resources already in the economy and society.

๐Ÿคฉ We recall ProppyApp coming to us with the vision of empowering neighbourhood economies to bring the value of circular economy back to the local level. We are extremely pleased that step-by-step they are establishing the infrastructure needed for that to become a reality. This is an amazing milestone.

May this positive momentum from our members uplift you all as well and inspire you to keep raising the bar to create a better, sustainable world ~๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‡

๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ Confused about what ESG and sustainability is?
๐Ÿค” What if you could just ask someone (qualified)?

๐Ÿ’ฏ Join us live on 'Ask Me Anything ESG - Environmental Social Governance' with our chairperson and Lead Trainer of the ESG-Readiness Certification Programme, Chin Lijin.

This interactive event is designed to be a lighthearted, candid sharing that provides you with insights into ESG. Whether you're new to ESG or looking to deepen your understanding, this is your chance to ask questions and get answers in real-time. (Note, this is not advisory of any sorts). ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

โ“ There is no question too small.
We are all on a journey. Don't journey alone and try to figure everything out yourself. Talk to someone about what you want to know about ESG. Don't let a few questions keep you stuck. ๐Ÿคฏ

p/s Lijin is one of only 2,000+ professionals with the FSA Credential from IFRS Foundation on their sustainability financial reporting ISSB standards, the Jury Member for 2 years running for the Circular Economy Awards & Forum, Schmidt MacArthur Fellow on Circular Economy since 2016, Chevening Awards (FCDO) recipient and has a Masters in Environmental Economics, and aBSc (Hons) in Environmental Management, and two published papers on pitcher plant ecology.

Batteries.. The life force in all electrical and electronic items.

Everyone's talking about going electric ... even for EVs and clean energy.

So what happens when the battery stops working?

What is a Carbon Credit? ๐Ÿง It's not a typical commodity.
It's a financial instrument for a service.

In this new episode of Circular Insights Business Podcast, host Chin Lijin sat down with the CEO of V-Carbon ESG, Mr. Manly Liu from Hong Kong, as he shares the journey his team has taken to transform their logging rights into carbon credits that can protect forests in Papua New Guinea and involve the local community.

We learn of the milestones to get to the Pre-issuance sales of these credits and how technology is enabling higher quality data to ensure the higher quality of such projects.

Thereโ€™s no shortage of conversations around circularity, sustainability, and ESG. Whatโ€™s often missing is the IMPLEMENTATION - knowing who and how to get the right things done.

This video shares a glimpse into the vision that guides CBASS and the kind of community we are building.
