35 Borneo - Sarawak Tackling Deforestation and Air Pollution in Malaysia and Borneo The private sector must play its part in observing laws. I urge business leaders and project managers to assume the responsibility, ensuring resources are used in a way that they do not compromise the needs of future generations, Talif said at the launch of green project management programmes here recently. He said the business community tended to focus on one P when considering the health of a company. They only look at the P representing profit at the expense of the planet and the people living on it. A recent survey showed that up to 64% of business leaders did not understand how to improve project sustainability, he said.
