GreenRE Shares ENRB Insights with Universiti Malaya Building Surveying Students

On 10 August 2026, GreenRE was invited to share industry insights with students from the Department of Building Surveying, Faculty of Built Environment, Universiti Malaya (UM), through a guest lecture delivered by Ts. Siti Radhiah Md Merzuki.

The session, titled “Assessing the GreenRE Rating Tool for Existing Non-Residential Buildings,” focused on the practical application of the GreenRE rating tool in assessing and improving the performance of existing buildings.

Students were introduced to the assessment process, including how opportunities for improvement can be identified and how a building can progress towards GreenRE certification. The session also provided valuable industry context on the role of green building assessment in enhancing the environmental performance of existing buildings.

As future professionals in the built environment, today’s students will play an important role in shaping more sustainable buildings and communities. Engaging with them at an early stage helps strengthen awareness, build practical understanding, and prepare the next generation to contribute meaningfully to a more sustainable built environment.

GreenRE would like to thank Universiti Malaya and the Department of Building Surveying for the invitation and the opportunity to share our industry experience with the students. We look forward to continuing such knowledge-sharing initiatives and future collaborations.

Can affordable housing and sustainability go hand in hand?

This important question took centre stage at the National Climate Governance Summit (NCGS) 2026, where GreenRE partnered with REHDA Malaysia to host the workshop, "Affordable Housing in a Hothouse World: Can Malaysia Deliver Both Affordability and Sustainability?", at Sasana Kijang, Kuala Lumpur.

As Malaysia continues to address housing affordability while responding to climate change, the discussion highlighted an important shift in perspective. Affordability should not be measured solely by the purchase price of a home, but also by its long-term operating costs, resilience, and quality of living.

Moderated by Amy Wong, Executive Director, Research & Consultancy, Knight Frank Malaysia, the session brought together a distinguished panel of industry leaders:

• Ngian Siew Siong, Board Advisor, Chin Hin Group Property
• Sr Previndran Singhe, Founder & Group CEO, Zerin Properties Group
• Nic Chin, Founder & Managing Director, Green Quarter Sdn. Bhd.

The discussion explored how thoughtful planning, sustainable design, lifecycle cost considerations, and practical implementation can help deliver homes that are not only affordable to buy, but also more efficient to operate, resilient to future challenges, and healthier for the communities they serve.

GreenRE extends its appreciation to Climate Governance Malaysia, REHDA Malaysia, our moderator, panellists, and everyone who participated in this timely and engaging discussion. Meaningful conversations like these are essential as we work together towards a built environment that is both affordable and sustainable.

GreenRE at ARCHIDEX 2026: Designing for Sustainable Impact

GreenRE was invited to be part of the Industry Dialogue, “Designing for Sustainable Impact: Decisions That Matter,” held on 29 July 2026 at the Press Metal booth during ARCHIDEX 2026 at MITEC, Kuala Lumpur.

Ir. Ashwin Thurairajah, Executive Director of GreenRE Sdn Bhd, joined Ar.

Thank you to Press Metal for hosting the session and to everyone who joined the discussion. We look forward to continuing the conversation at ISW 2026 this September.
