Sabah and Sarawak cover the northern coast of the island. The lower two‐thirds of Borneo is Kalimantan, which belongs to Indonesia. The area has a fascinating history, and probably because it is on one of the main trade routes through South East Asia, Borneo has had many masters. Sabah and Sarawak were incorporated into the Federation of Malaysia in 1963 and Malaysia is now regarded a safe and orderly Islamic country. Sabah has a diverse ethnic population of just over 3 million people with 32 recognised ethnic groups. The largest of these is the Malays (these include the many different cultural groups that originally existed in their own homeland within Sabah), Chinese and “non‐official immigrants” (mainly Filipino and Indonesian). In recent centuries piracy was common here, but it is now generally considered relatively safe for cruising. However, the nearby islands of Southern Philippines have had some problems with militant fundamentalist Muslim groups – there have been riots and violence on Mindanao and the Tawi Tawi Islands and isolated episodes of kidnapping of people from Sabah in the past 10 years or so.

Choo Poh Leem1, Kenneth Kassem1,2,Monique Sumampouw1, 1WWF-Malaysia Semporna, Sabah, Malaysia 2Graduate School of Global Environmental Studies, Kyoto University, Japan Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract. Within the Sulu-Sulawesi Marine Ecoregion (SSME), Semporna Priority Conservation Area (PCA) ranks among the highest marine biodiversity in the world. Within Semporna waters, there are several government bodies responsible for different islands. Tun Sakaran Marine Park was gazetted under the management of Sabah Parks in 2004. Sipadan Island’s water is under the protection of Majlis Keselamatan Negara (National Security Council). The Department of Fisheries Sabah is interested in Omadal Island for seaweed farming. Mabul Island receives the most attention due to its proximity to Sipadan, and is the base for most tourism operators. Mabul has 2,500 residents relying on fisheries, and more than 15 resorts and dive lodges on 26 hectares of land (Aw et al, 2006). Reef check survey, community-based seagrass survey, seawater quality monitoring and groundwater analysis have been conducted on Mabul over the past 2 years. The environmental condition of Mabul is currently threatened, to the point where it might become the source of pollution that will spread to other islands within the Semporna PCA. Collaborative environmental monitoring has been identified as a primary method to reverse human impacts, so collaborative efforts have been initiated on Mabul since April 2010.

Forest Reserves, Wildlife Reserves and Protected Areas 98 Foreword In the endeavour to prepare a Tree Flora for the botanically rich states of Sabah and Sarawak in Malaysian Borneo, one of the main concerns has also been to assemble an up­to­date data base which incorporates information on species. It was at once realised that this opportunity comes hand­in­hand with information from numerous specimens that will be made available by specialists involved in the project, making the data set as scientifically sound as can be. This gazetteer is one of those steps towards such a specialised data base, tabulating information that serves as a primordial vocabulary on localities within that data base. By itself, too, the gazetteer will be a handy reference to all who are concerned with the scientific and systematic management of natural resources and land use in Sabah, and in the development of geographical information systems.

A total of 180 sites were surveyed in 2019 (2018: 212), 97 in Peninsular Malaysia and 83 in East Malaysia. The surveys are a continuation of a successful National Reef Check Survey Programme that has now run for thirteen years. 2. The surveys were carried out by trained volunteers as well as government officials from Marine Parks Malaysia, reflecting commitment from the Government in further improving management of Malaysia’s coral reefs. Surveys were carried out on several islands off Peninsular Malaysia’s East and West coast, covering both established Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) and non-protected areas, and in various parts of East Malaysia, both Sabah and Sarawak. 3. The results indicate that the Malaysian coral reefs surveyed have a relatively high level of living coral, at 40.63% (2018: 42.42%).

  • A Study of Foreign Policies with Special Reference to Bilateral
    Malaysia and Indonesia: A Study of Foreign Policies with Special Reference to Bilateral Relations Ahmad Nizar Yaakub This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Arts) The University of Western Australia School of Social and Cultural Studies Discipline of Political Science and International Relations October 2009 i Abstract In the post-Cold War era, the ‘special relationship’ between Malaysia and Indonesia appears to have become not as cordial as during the 1970s-80s. In fact, it has been characterized more by conflict and rivalry than cooperation. Many issues have contributed to the tension namely, clash of personality between leaders, national political transformation, cross-border environmental concerns, illegal migrant workers, separatist movement, territorial disputes, transnational terrorism, and disputes over cultural rights. While examining those specific developments, this thesis organizes its analysis of Malaysian and Indonesian foreign policies, with special reference to their evolving bilateral relations, from a constructivist perspective. Constructivists believe that culture, ethnicity, elite/leadership, national identity, and religious beliefs are among the main factors which should be examined in order to better understand a state’s behaviour in relation to other states in the international arena. Those non-material factors, which are ignored or under-studied in the leading international theories which mostly focus on military/economic power and the international system underpinned by balance of power, provide a useful interpretive framework to understand the cases of Malaysia and Indonesia. Deploying this constructivist perspective, this thesis examines and compares those factors’ impact on Malaysian and Indonesian foreign policies in general, and on their conduct of bilateral relations in particular, in the post-Cold War era.
