Sharing important news and updates for you and the community Back And The Hills Went On And On - The Story of MUDS UM 2010 4 August 2010 We were lucky that it was again a good day, with good weather and great spirits from racers and supporters alike. The second of the MUDS series this time took us to Universiti Malaya (UM), for a short and sweet racing experience. While UPNM played with your mental as racers had to go in 3 loops, in UM the racers faced a shorter distance compared to UPNM. But it didn’t mean that it was going to be any easier. The 2 loops in Taman Rimba Ilmu proved to be a killer start. With a stair-like climb at some spots in the route, it surely separated the strong and weak runners. Some were even reduced to a walk and the huffing and puffing didn’t end there. After the 3.5km run, racers were then taken to a relatively short cycling route of 11.4km that was loaded with long arduous climbs followed by a cool downhill, which offered the cyclists some relief before having to climb up the slope again for the 2-loop route. Then it was time to stash the bike in the transition area and head for the second run. By now, most racers know what they were facing and were more properly paced for the final section. It proved to be a mental game between man and nature as they fought their way through the shady but killer route. This time around, Mark John Williams proved that he’s the fastest on the course by finishing first in 50 minutes 13 seconds, followed by defending champion from 2009, Ong Wei Xiang (UTM) in 50 minutes 33 seconds. In the Women's Open category, Emer Breen from Ireland clocked 1 hour, 1 minute, 28 seconds for first place, while in the Women's University category, Nor Juliana Ali (IIUM) came in first in 1 hour, 8 minutes, 27 seconds. Malakoff sent 7 participants – 6 competed in the individual category and 1 participated in team relay. All managed to finish the race except for one participant who injured himself during the second run and had to abort the race. For the weekend warriors, who worked from 9 to 5 everyday, the race provided some relief from the mundane day-to-day tasks and was also an opportunity to meet friends and foster a closer bond between them. An unfortunate incident happened in UM where one female racer tumbled on the bike and crashed on the road. She was later quickly taken to Pusat Perubatan Universiti Malaya (PPUM) where the doctor confirmed that she suffered a broken collarbone. We wish her a speedy recovery and hope to see her racing again soon. Thank you to Universiti Malaya for hosting MUDS again this year. Looking forward to exposing more athletes, pros and beginners, to this run-bike-run sport called duathlon. Again, congratulations to the participants who finished the race. You are officially a duathlete!

Enhancing the quality of life and empowering the communities where we operate. Sustainability Agenda Sustainability Statement Corporate Governance Sustainability Agenda Our Sustainability & ESG Initiatives Key ESG Practices And Sustainability Development Goals A Sustainably Conscious Organisation As a sustainably conscious organisation, we take a three-pronged holistic approach towards sustainability, covering all business areas. We believe our approach of embedding the triple bottom line into our business operations, objectives, and goals ensures that the Group will remain relevant in the longer term. Commitment Towards Sustainability Easy access to Reliable power, clean water, and effective waste disposal. Greener energy sources From fossil fuels to renewables. Cleaner environment Effective and efficient waste management as part of a circular economy. Group-wide Sustainability Development Goals The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development were all adopted by all members of the United Nations community to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. We have adopted the following goals: Environmental Sustainability Amongst our commitment to help maintain environmental sustainability is reducing carbon emission of our operations across the Group. This initiative is made possible through waste diversion activities which include the segregation of recyclable waste and recovery activities. Committed to Fulfilling Sustainable Development Goals Objectives In fulfilling the SDGs, we have been actively promoting the new sustainable economic concept to ensure the public has access to proper sustainable waste management and facilities. Transition to a Cleaner Energy Future As part of our commitment to mitigate the impacts of climate change, we have committed to transitioning towards a cleaner energy future by developing RE assets within the areas of solar, small hydro, biogas and waste-to-energy. Along with this, the viability of our thermal plants is even more relevant today, as thermal plants can produce energy more efficiently than conventional plants. This commitment is in line with our desire to be an energy-efficient manufacturer, in support of the Government’s target to achieve 31% RE capacity in the national energy mix by 2025. Circular Economy in Waste Management Under the SDG 12 objective, we aim to "do more and better with less" to tackle waste management. For starters, the linear economy becomes a disadvantage to the environment due to its take, make, and dispose concept. As such, we plan to transition to change our way of delivering products and services from that of linear economy into an eco-friendlier one. This way, resources are maintained and waste eliminated as best possible to achieve a sustainable circular economy. For example, we use the 5R of waste segregation via Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Recover and Recycle. Our Initiatives Towards Reducing Carbon Footprint

Sharing important news and updates for you and the community Back Malakoff Signs MoU with ITOCHU on Decarbonisation Initiatives 24 April 2022 Malakoff Corporation Berhad (“Malakoff”), a member of the MMC Group, headquartered in Kuala Lumpur and ITOCHU Corporation (“ITOCHU”) headquartered in Tokyo, Japan have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MoU”) to conduct a feasibility study on decarbonisation via the utilisation of hydrogen/ammonia in the state of Johor, Malaysia (“Feasibility Study”). The MoU was signed in conjunction with the Asia Green Growth Partnership Ministerial Meeting 2022 Public-Private Forum hosted by Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (“METI”). The forum’s goal is to disseminate the importance of industry-government-academia efforts, innovation promotion and international cooperation to accelerate pragmatic energy transitions in Asia. The objective of this MoU is to record the understanding between Malakoff and ITOCHU in respect of the development of an ammonia receiving terminal and the decarbonisation of coal-fired power plants owned by Malakoff through ammonia co-firing, and the development of a new combined cycle gas turbine power plant utilising high hydrogen content fuel, subject to the outcome of the Feasibility Study and further discussions between both parties. The Feasibility Study site will be located at Johor Straits which is essential for marine transportation, resulting in a huge potential for the development of an ammonia receiving terminal for co-firing/hydrogen usage as well as opportunities for bunkering and supply to the industrial complex nearby. Encik Anwar Syahrin Abdul Ajib, Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer (“MD/CEO”) of Malakoff said, “Our collaboration with ITOCHU, one of the largest globally integrated corporations, is testament to Malakoff’s commitment to the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals and aligned with the Group’s transformation towards becoming a sustainably conscious organisation. The MoU marks a major milestone as we embark on our journey towards Net Zero Carbon Emissions by 2050.” “The cooperation between Malakoff and ITOCHU demonstrates our focused efforts towards combating climate change through a sustainability-driven action plan by reducing our carbon emissions and advancing the transition to a cleaner energy future. The Feasibility Study will be the first step towards potential utilisation of hydrogen/ammonia for the creation of a decarbonised society in line with Malaysia’s pledge to become a carbon neutral nation by 2050 and in conjunction with the Asia Energy Transition Initiative supported by METI,” he added. Malakoff continues to spearhead the Sustainability Agenda through its global best-in-class operations and strong commitment to sustainability and innovation as we accelerate our growth towards becoming a global Renewable Energy and Environmental Solutions player.

Sharing important news and updates for you and the community Back Visited Sekolah Anak Yatim Al-Ansar in Batang Berjuntai 19 July 2009 I have been to a few orphanages and schools for orphans and the under privileged but my experiences before was not enough to prepare me for what would greet me at Sekolah Anak Yatim Al-Ansar. The ride from the office took us a more than an hour. Batang Berjuntai is not really a place of public interest nor is it a place to spend the weekend getaway. After a few kilometers of driving on uneven kampung roads, we came to the mentioned school. The morning classes were still in session but the place was quiet and serene. There were even a few trees bearing fruits for this year’s season. Ustazah Hafizah, greeted and invited us in for some food and drinks before we proceeded to looking around the school area. She uttered the names of some Malakoff staff that were still remembered and some who had still maintained a good relationship with the orphanage until today. “The school and its residents are very grateful to them and the other staff for their visits and contributions to the school,” she said. First stop was the school’s library. Nothing to shout about, the books were neatly arranged - books on Islamic teachings and reference books. “We would appreciate if we can get more reference books or dictionaries for the library as we are lacking in these materials,” added Ustazah Hafizah, who thought that the library is the best gift ever for the kids there. We were then brought to the classrooms where the children were being taught by the teachers who were only given allowances or ‘saguhati’ for teaching at the school. They didn’t have the luxury to scribble on whiteboards using marker pens. It’s not worth wasting hard-earned money on such luxuries. As long as there were blackboards and chalks for them to write with, they will continue to educate the children in whatever manner they can to ensure that they will have a brighter future after leaving the school. Looking through the missing pieces of the glasses on the Naco window panes, I could see eagerness in the kids, sitting on the rickety chairs and writing on the shabby-looking desks, trying to learn and change their fate in life. Most of them were orphans; some were troubled kids, sent by their families here to be more disciplined and to return to the teachings of Islam. Moving on to the first floor where the boys’ dormitories were situated, the wooden structures were a little dilapidated but they were not complaining. At least with the wall fans contributed by some noble souls, they were able to sleep at night, albeit sharing the room with 20 other people. Clothes were hanging all over from the walls and ceilings. Sometimes when it’s raining heavily, the rain water would seep through the ceilings and walls, destroying the wooden structures. The girl's dormitories are similar with the boy's dormitories, where we were welcomed by dilapidated walls and floors, dangerous-looking DIY electrical wiring, missing pieces of glasses on the Naco windows, and old torn rubber mats. At night, they would combine mattresses that were available for them to sleep on. The washing room area for the girl’s dormitories was a different story. Toilet doors were missing. They bathed in a common area from a few large ‘kolah’ that were concealed by concrete walls - probably a little different of how things were done at home, but they were contented with what they have and put them to good use. These are just some of the few things that we can help contribute to improve their way of living and learning areas. A few hanging racks, some pieces of glass for the Naco windows, student reference books and dictionaries for their library, mattresses, rubber mats. These are not luxury items but are basic daily necessities. Therefore for the coming gotong-royong, we planned to do at the school next month. Volunteers are welcome to clean-up the place with us, do some easy DIY fixing, well, basically visit the orphans to show them that there are still people in this world who care for their well-being. At the same time, you are also welcome to contribute basic food stuff like rice, sugar, cooking oil and flour. Anyone who wants to pay their fidiyah can also do it at the school during our gotong-royong. As for clothing items, Ustazah said, the residents’ age are mostly between 9 to 17 years old, and among the contributions that are most welcomed by the school are T-shirts, long pants, track bottoms, baju melayu, baju kurung and telekung for prayers. We will need everyone’s help in making this charity event a success. For those who would like to contribute clothing items or food stuff, kindly bring the items that you would like to donate to the school on your own this coming August 15. If you can’t make it, kindly ask a colleague who will be joining the gotong-royong to deliver the items for you. In the spirit of charity, we would like to have as many staff as possible to join us for the event and you are welcomed to bring your family members along to help out with the gotong-royong. It can be an eye-opener for them to see the living conditions of these orphans and appreciate what they have at home.

Sharing important news and updates for you and the community Back Malakoff Charity Ride 2009 7 April 2009 Scorching hot sun, strong coastal wind, heavy rain, long arduous inclines. These are just a few elements that the cyclists had to go through during the 3-day charity rides. So why do some cyclists keep on signing up every year when they know the challenges that they will face for the next 3 days? Some called it pure stupidity, some called it the verge of insanity. But some simply call it pure torturing pleasure. I could still remember the first Charity Ride that I joined 2 years ago. It was the Putrajaya-Kuala Pilah-Summerset Rompin-Kuantan ride. The distance was 404km, which to me at that time, was intimidating enough, adding to the fact that the cyclists would have to face Bukit Mandum just before Lenggeng, followed by Bukit Putus en route to Pilah, the rolling roads of the Feldas en route to Rompin on the second day, and of course the coastal winds en route to Kuantan on the third day. Flag-off at Charity Ride 2008 in Gombak As dark clouds gathered at Pantai(Negeri Sembilan) just before we continued our journey to Pilah after Friday prayers, I turned to ask Sharef, what are we going to do if it rains? To that, Sharef answered simply, “Sorry, sis, this is a rain-or-shine event. Unless there’s thunder and lightnings, we will keep on pedaling to the next destination.” Tough luck! I remembered that I was at the back of the pack, well actually the pack left me and a few other cyclists to survive the heavy rain up Bukit Putus. In front of me, I noticed a fellow cyclist by the name of Jack and I made it a point that I was never to leave this guy out of my sight, even if I had to cycle till I faint! (Basically, the idea was if there were any pot holes on the roads, Jack would hit it first, and I would have time to swerve and avoid hitting my wheels in them.. Clever isn’t it? But don’t tell Jack, OK!) Of course I received a thunderous applause from the guys at our regrouping area for conquering Bukit Putus in the rain. When I looked back and thought about going downhill in the pouring rain, my legs will always turn jello. What if I made a bad judgment and slid off the tarmac, into the ravine near Bukit Putus? What if! Thank God nothing bad happened to me and all the others, except for the usual cramps and dehydration. Resting en route to Temerloh When the MD/CEO suggested that we rode further for the 3rd edition of Charity Ride (in 2008), few of the cyclists were sceptical that we would even finish the whole distance. Charity Ride ‘numero tres’ featured an additional 76km from the previous year’s and proved to be harder with more climbs and longer riding hours. The route was from Gombak to Temerloh (via Genting Sempah and the rock ‘n rollin’ Felda Mempaga), to Kemaman and ended on the third day in Kuala Terengganu. The distance was 140km, 180km and 160km. For those who are unfamiliar with cycling terms, 180km is equivalent to the cycling distance in the Ironman, and 160km is called a Century (i.e. 100 miles). Added to that, we faced the coastal winds from the South China Sea, from the front, sides and the back. Trust me, although the route was mostly flat on second and third day, the wind added the challenge as we had to hang on tight to the handlebars as we rode along the serene countryside, with the occasional kampung kids cycling alongside us, trying to outdo us on our roadbikes! Somewhere near Marang peloton on the second and third day. There were a mix of girls and boys as young as 11, and the best thing was their parents took turns to act as marshal in a support car to accompany the kids during their trainings! How cool is that! No wonder there are many top cyclists that came from Terengganu! Apart from the long, hard rides, what touched me the most was the faces of the unfortunate kids and folks that were our special guests at the dinners that we normally have at our stops during the rides. There were HIV positive kids from Pernim, who were lovingly cared for by Puan Norlina Alawi, the founder of Pernim. There were also the orphans from Persatuan Anak-anak Yatim Darul Izzah, Temerloh, who, behind the sweet smiles, must have longed to hear and hold their departed loved ones. Kids at Darul Izzah The dinner at Temerloh that was held at Darul Izzah gave us the opportunity to see the orphanage first hand. Halfway through the dinner, there was a blackout for nearly half an hour and we had to carefully eat our ikan patin masak tempoyak with inadequate lighting, to avoid choking on the patins’ fine bones. I was told later that blackouts were a norm at the orphanage as the electricity supply there was insufficient to cover the needs of the whole kampung. Hence after the dinner, we did an adhoc donation drive and collected nearly RM500 from the cyclists and support crew to be given to the orphans of Darul Izzah. We hoped that the donations given to them, through Malakoff, were able to ease their burdens and help the charity institutions carry on with their day-to-day operations. Besides having fun cyling alongside friends and enjoying the scenery throughout the event, we must also remember that we carry the task to deliver the donors’ ‘amanah’ to the less fortunate. I personally felt that by visiting them, we are able to appreciate what God has given to us, be more humble and praise God for the good well-being that He has bestowed upon us that enabled us to cycle and visit them to deliver the donations. May all of us are given good health, good route, good weather and good companionship for this year’s journey. Us in Temerloh
