摘要：AbstractIn Malaysia, many local communities reside within and around protected areas. Conflict, misunderstanding and mistrust often occur between the local communities and the protected area management. This study explores the perception and readiness of a chosen community on community participation in national park management. Questionnaires were distributed to 34 villagers in Kampung Bantal, Ulu Tembeling, Pahang, a remote village neighboring the Pahang National Park. The respondents indicate positive attitude towards community participation. This close knit community has the potential and strength to initiate community participation initiative. However, they require encouragement towards participation and in enhancing their community self-empowerment.
