For the past 37 years, i Capital has been faithfully providing its views and advice on the Kuala Lumpur and the world’s major stock markets as well as the Malaysian and major economies of the world plus stock recommendations and trading picks. However, it does not stop as being just an investment publication as one of its missions is to protect our one precious planet. Over the years, i Capital has devoted considerable space to climate change and environment protection. 

The latest United Nations plastic treaty talks aiming to finalise a legally binding global treaty to end plastic pollution collapse last week due mainly to opposition from the Trump administration. More than 460 mln metric tons of plastic are produced every single year, of which an estimated 20 mln end up polluting our environment. i Capital again urges all global citizens to reduce or stop using plastic products. Together, the power of individuals is strong. 

i Capital will pause its publication for one issue in the week beginning 1 Sep. However, www.icapital.biz will be updated as usual and the operating hours of our Kuala Lumpur office will remain unchanged. Volume 37, number 6 of i Capital will henceforth be dated 11 Sep - 17 Sep 2025.
