Abstract
The shipping industry's growth in Malaysia has led to a significant increase in ship emissions.impacting air and marine quality and posing risks to human health, climate, and ecosystems.To address these environmental challenges, this research paper examines the implementation ofa zero-emission shipping policy in Malaysia. The objectives of this study are to identify theimpact of such a policy on the country's shipping industry and to formulate a comprehensiveframework for the successful implementation of the zero-emission policy. Qualitativemethodology was employed, and interviews were conducted with the Marine DepartmentMalaysia (MDM) to gather insights and data. Content analysis was applied to analyze theinterview results. This research contributes to addressing the shipping industry's sustainabilitychallenges in Malaysia by providing insights into the implementation of a zero-emission policy.
