Malaysia recognizes that climate change and the adverse impact. Positive policy actions have been taken to address climate change. In line with the Malaysian Government's effort and pledge in COP15 to achieve a 40% voluntary reduction of CO2 emission intensity by 2020, the implementation of the blueprint will facilitate the low carbon development of metropolitan areas. The case study Iskandar Malaysia being one of the fastest growing regions in Malaysia, this demonstrates the realization of how a low carbon society can be achieved by decoupling CO2 emissions and economic growth. This paper describes the 12 proposed actions which are based on the active participation and consensus building of major stakeholders in Iskandar Malaysia. In addition, it also highlights the 10 priority projects identified to be implemented aligned to the local community needs.
