  • Assessing Mangrove Conservation Efforts In
    ASSESSING MANGROVE Hong Ching Goh CONSERVATION EFFORTS IN ISKANDAR MALAYSIA ASSESSING MANGROVE CONSERVATION EFFORTS IN ISKANDAR MALAYSIA by Hong Ching Goh MIT-UTM Malaysia Sustainable Cities Program Massachusetts Institute of Technology Abstract Despite the importance of mangrove ecosystems, they are being destroyed more quickly than all other types of forests around the world. The causes of mangrove destruction vary, but are most closely associated with human population growth and the dynamics of urbanization. Urban development has been identified as one of the key threats to mangrove survival in many emerging coastal cities in developing countries. This paper explores mangrove conservation efforts in Iskandar Malaysia, the fastest growing economic region in southern Peninsular Malaysia. Specifically, I assess the extent to which existing urban planning efforts are helping to conserve mangrove in a developing coastal zone. I conclude that the top-down planning efforts of the federal and state government are undervaluing the extent to which mangroves provide important ecosystem services. I recommend a more comprehensive planning approach that emphasizes 1) greater public participation at the local level, 2) more substantial involvement of the regional planning and development authority, 3) more extensive protection of existing mangrove forest reserves and 4) stricter enforcement of environmental impact assessment requirements. Overall, this paper contributes to the empirical literature on urbanization and nature conservation in developing countries. In the case of Iskandar Malaysia, the existing urban planning system—which favors economic development—has become a double-edged sword vis a vis nature conservation: a common problem in many emerging economic regions in developing world. Nevertheless, strategic and methodological mechanisms can be applied to offset many of the negative impacts of the urban planning system.
