The participants, which included Malakoff staff, school children, representatives from local authorities and members of the local community were seen running while picking- up litter around the area, and placing them into biodegradable plastic bags, before continuing the run. Approximately two tonnes of rubbish were collected by all participants, which were then sorted out into the bins for plastic, glass and paper. Teluk Senangin is located in the district of Manjung, where Malakoff also owns and operates its 1,943 MW Lumut Power Plant. Speaking about the event, Dato’ Ahmad Fuaad Kenali, CEO of Malakoff said, “at Malakoff, we are committed to the environment especially in the areas where we Page 1 of 3 operate.
