Establishing a systematic monitoring mechanism to improve the scientific knowledge and management of wildlife in Malaysia
2007 Conference Proceeding
Various national resource agencies, research institutes and NGOs in Malaysia have conducted inventories, surveys and expeditions to understand the distribution and the richness of our wildlife species. Following the commitment of Malaysia to various MEAs and the proclamation of the National Policy on Biological Diversity, various long-term monitoring mechanisms have to be designed and implemented to monitor the status and sustainability of our diverse wildlife species and populations. This paper discusses the Department of Wildlife and National Park's (DWNP) experiences in establishing a monitoring mechanism and the collaborative efforts needed to implement a systematic monitoring mechanism for wildlife throughout Malaysia.
