Incentives and financial support for Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and private sector investments could spearhead innovation in diversified seaweed-based value-added products. This can help to create a sustainable demand for seaweeds and derived products. Implementation of biosecurity measures is essential for managing production risks such as pests and diseases outbreaks, enhancing productivity, and reducing losses. Advancing a stable supply of healthy seedlings for cultivation remains key to ensuring the sustainability of seaweed value chains and the industry in Malaysia and the ASEAN region.
