Malacca selected as finalist of ‘We Love Cities’ global campaign
MELAKA: The efforts of the Melaka Historic City Council (MBMB) to adopt various green initiatives towards becoming a prosperous and sustainable city have borne fruit, this after Melaka was selected as a global finalist for the “We Love Cities’ campaign.
State Housing, Local Government and Environment chairman Datuk Seri Abdul Ghafar Atan said Melaka was selected after the state was named the winner of the Second National One Planet City Challenge by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) recently.
He said Melaka was among 56 cities in the world to be selected, with South Korea, France, Norway, Canada and Turkey also among the finalist countries involved in the campaign.
“Melaka previously represented the country to the finals of the same campaign in San Francisco in 2018.
“The state government calls on Malaysians to support and cast their votes so that Melaka can be crowned as the global winner and make its name on the international arena,” he told a media conference here today.
Voting, which opened from Sept 14 to Oct 11, can be done at https://welovecities.org/melaka and further information can be obtained at MBMB’s website www.mbmb.gov.my or via its official Facebook page. — Bernama
