The United Nations (UN) family in Malaysia is represented by the Resident Coordinator (RC) system. The RC system encompasses all organizations of the UN system dealing with operational activities for development regardless of whether or not they have a continuous presence in Malaysia. The RC system brings together the different UN agencies to 'deliver as one' for much greater impact at the country level.
