MNS (BirdLife in Malaysia) have produced a “blueprint” for conserving key habitats critical for many of Malaysia’s threatened birds.
Directory of Important Bird Areas (IBAs) in Malaysia – the 10th such guide in Asia – was launched at a high-profile event in Tanjung Tuan, Malaysia on 10 March.
“This is Malaysia’s contribution to the world,” said Anthony Sebastian, President of MNS. “…a very important document, placing in posterity a map of much of our country’s unique and spectacular natural heritage”.
