Malaysia: One-stop environmental platform

VICTORIA BROWN The Star 3 Jun 14;

KUALA LUMPUR: If you are passionate about the environment and want to be part of a movement to help Mother Earth, but do not know where to start or what to do, a Malaysian website will show you how.

The one-of-a-kind Malaysia Environmental Sustainability Youth Movements website, co-founded by Dr Jun-E Tan and her Argentine husband Leonardo Losoviz, is an innovative online hub for the Malaysian environmental scene and a platform for those who want to get involved

“There are many different activities and events happening in Malaysia, but these organisations are not connected. So we basically put all these environmental events and activities happening around Malaysia on a single platform so that everybody can access it,” said Losoviz.

“Our mission is to connect the green dots where different people, sectors, communities and ideas are linked together to create a bigger picture,” said Dr Tan.

“We’re giving people information so that they can participate and we’re urging people to participate by giving them the who, what, when, where, and how,” she added.
