Dr Zaliha: Malaysia Promotes CHASE City Vision For Sustainable ASEANUrban Development
GENERAL KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 12 (Bernama) -- Malaysia today called on ASEAN nations to adopt an integrated urban planning approach, which balances environmental stewardship, social well-being, and economic competitiveness through the CHASE City framework. Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Federal Territories) Datuk Seri Dr Zaliha Mustafa said that the framework, introduced in the Federal Territories, envisions cities that are Clean, Healthy, Advanced, Safe and Eco-friendly, offering a flexible model adaptable to the diverse realities of ASEAN cities. 'It is within this context of interconnected challenges that Malaysia has sought to define a guiding vision, one that is practical in implementation, yet adaptable to diverse circumstances across ASEAN. 'This is not a collection of separate agendas, but an integrated philosophy that guides urban policy, design and governance, in a holistic way,' she said. She said this in her speech at the ASEAN Sustainable Urbanisation Forum (ASUF), ASEAN Governors and Mayors Forum (AGMF) and the Meeting of Governors and Mayors of ASEAN Capitals (MGMAC) 2025, at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC), here, today. Dr Zaliha said that the CHASE City framework aligns with ASEAN's urban priorities, as it enables collaboration between government, business, academia and civil society, to create sustainable, liveable cities. She cited the Kota MADANI development in Putrajaya as a tangible manifestation of the framework, incorporating low-carbon solutions, AI-driven smart technologies, active and safe mobility, green networks and community facilities. The minister also highlighted Malaysia's membership in the Davos Baukultur Alliance, making it the first country outside Europe to join the global coalition. 'This membership reflects our belief that cities are more than functional spaces. They are cultural and social ecosystems whose physical form should strengthen identity, foster inclusion and inspire pride among residents,' she said.

ILMU is Malaysia's own multimodal large language model (LLM), trained on local language and data to understand our culture, context and daily realities. Fully developed, owned and operated in Malaysia, it is built by YTL AI Labs, in partnership with Universiti Malaya (UM). ILMU keeps data local and gives the nation strategic control over its AI future, ensuring we lead with intelligence rooted in our own values and voice. The name ILMU stands for Intelek Luhur Malaysia Untukmu, reflecting the model's core values of 'Intelek', for context-aware intelligence; 'Luhur', for ethical foundations rooted in Malaysian values; 'Malaysia', for cultural and linguistic fluency; and 'Untukmu', because it is built to serve all Malaysians. ASEAN Secretary-General Dr Kao Kim Hourn and Digital Minister Gobind Singh Deo were also present at the launch. Meanwhile, Gobind, in a statement, applauded the establishment of ILMU, a groundbreaking Malaysian innovation by YTL AI Labs that reflects the national vision for a future driven by technology, inclusivity, and cultural relevance. "Built by Malaysians for Malaysians, ILMU showcases our ability to create world-class AI infrastructure while preserving our linguistic and cultural identity. "This is more than just technology; it is a step towards empowering our people, our businesses, and our nation in the digital era,' he said. YTL Power International Bhd managing director Datuk Seri Yeoh Seok Hong said ILMU represents YTL's commitment to innovation, rooted in Malaysia's diverse cultural and intellectual heritage. YTL AI Labs said ILMU performed on par with state-of-the-art models like GPT-4o and Llama 3.1. It said ILMU achieved the highest score among all frontier models in Bahasa Melayu language understanding (MalayMMLU - a test of multi-domain knowledge in Malay), demonstrating stronger performance on real-world prompts. ILMUchat (the AI Chatbot) for consumers will be available for early access on Malaysia Day, Sept 16, 2025. The public is welcome to register their interest at - BERNAMA
