A comparative static analysis of carbon tax policy and a 'Smart City-JB', Johor Bahru, Malaysia

Malaysia at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in 2009 during the 15th Conference of Parties (COP15) announced the intention of voluntary reduction up to 40% in terms of emission intensity of GDP by the year 2020 compared to 2005 levels. However, on the other hand, Malaysia aims to attain...
