摘要:AbstractIn Malaysia, there is no single comprehensive legislation that relates to bio-diversity conservation and management as a whole, especially wetlands. Much of the legislation is sector-based. Other international laws that are relevant include the Langkawi Declaration, the Rio Declaration, and also the Ramsar Convention. This paper is part of an ongoing PhD thesis on wetlands conservation. The objectives of this research are to investigate the adequacy of the current legal framework in Malaysia, and its application concerning the conservation of biodiversity of wetlands. This is a qualitative research and an exploratory research to explain and identify the conservation of biodiversity.
