Synopsis

Malaysia interests development practitioners for many reasons, not least because of its remarkably rich natural environment. This book provides an analysis of major natural resource and environmental policy issues in the country during the 1970s and 1980s, a period of profound socioeconomic changes, rapid depletion of natural resources, and the emergence of serious air and water pollution problems. The book places emphasis on economics as a source of concepts and methods for analyzing natural resource and environmental issues and policy responses. The authors' access to unpublished data and key decision makers makes this account of extensive, field-based research a useful reference for policy makers and researchers concerned about environmental and natural resource management both in Malaysia and throughout the globe.
