00:59 - Through our ESG Awards,
01:01 we aim to recognize companies and fund managers
01:04 that are leading the pack in adopting good ESG practices.
01:08 These are companies and funds that have managed
01:10 to ensure the right balance is struck
01:13 between delivering good returns to their investors
01:16 and doing what is good for the larger community.
01:19 Tonight, 48 PLCs and asset management companies
01:22 will be walking away with a trophy,
01:24 including gold and silver.
01:26 Congratulations to all of you,
01:28 and thank you for doing your part
01:30 for the environment, society,
01:32 and for the future of our good earth.

01:39 - It's always good when we talk about
01:41 what individuals can do for the environment.
01:43 It is crucial.
01:45 But we must remember that if two important players
01:49 do not do anything,
01:51 which is the government and the private sector,
01:53 do not act,
01:55 then we do not have a chance in making a difference
01:58 with regards to saving our planet.
02:00 I sincerely hope that The Edge Malaysia ESG Awards
02:04 will continue to go from strength to strength,
02:07 and that more companies will consider
02:09 participating in future editions.
