Meleka Focusing On Green Technology

MELAKA (Bernama) - The Melaka government is focusing on green
technology development in an effort to provide a better life to people in the
state.

Chief Minister Mohd Ali Rustam said as such, the four local
authorities should take measures in line with the state government plan.

"Local authorities should cooperate with other cities that have developed
green technology," he said after the launch of Melaka Historical City's 8th
anniversary celebration here Friday night.

The four local authorities are Malacca Historical City Council, Hang Tuah
Jaya Municipal Council, Jasin Municipal Council and Alor Gajah Municipal
Council.

Ali also thanked the federal government for recognising Melaka as the green
energy centre that will become the model for green technology development in the
country.

He urged the people to move in tandem with the government in making Melaka a
green technology state by 2020.

The event was highlighted with cultural performances from 21 cultural groups
from within and outside the country.
