It is common in seminars or conference we have dinner and cultural performance. What is the secret about conference dinners? The performers are sometime scientists or students. We need versatile scientists not just working in the laboratory.

I am not too sure how many Malaysia are concern about this imported rubbish especially the plastic. Malaysian are not that poor hunger for money and polluted our own living comfort areas. We need clean air to breath and safe water to drink.

Dry weather in the north encourage mount climbers go to Gunung Baling which is one of beautiful scenery to see. But during dry season the area is easy to catch fire. I hope the smokers should be discipline enough to control their fire. Because of one second careless action, we lost beautiful scenery and rich biodiversity. May be this people should be punished heavily because they killed many lives. Malaysia is top mega biodiversity in the world. We need to encourage more research. in case of Gunung Baling the authorities should offer research grant to assess the biodiversity of Gunung Baling after fire. Lets the experts doing research.

We better talk based on scientific studies, some time through your experience is not enough if not writing and share with your peers. Many have similar interest eg mangrove ecosystem, many developed interest after understand about mangrove and sympathy to the mangrove ecosystems start sharing story, concern and talking each other. Very good if they refer to the true experts who doing research and not just reading the story. We encourage more research and story writing about mangroves issues. Media can play important roles in meeting the experts together, gather the information and educating the public.

From highlands to open seas we never stop from talking about the environmental issues. Malaysian Nature society (MNS) too never stop talking about nature protection and conservation. The oldest nature based society MNS since 1940) should be referred by the authorities anything related to the environmental issues and nature. Highland should not be touched and mangrove on the coastal areas too should be kept. They play roles in our safety and health.

Aedes mosquitoes increasing or dengue cases increasing? Who is going to answer? Journalists? Public who read newspaper? Public who visit their relatives infected by dengue virus? Doctors? Scientists? Public Relation Officers on the Ministry of Health? Surely they have the answer but are the answers can solve the problems? Are we going to ask people in rural areas to spend 10 minutes destroy mosquitoes breeding area? all must take the initiatives headed by the local authorities.Education and publicity are important than punishing people. Why not we have mosquitoes search and destroy every sunday at 9-10 a.m.

In multiracial and multi religious and multi culture it is very tough challenge to live in harmony. we must understand all cultures, respect and tolerant. If we see someone try to create non harmonious situation, we together must do something. Understand each other and respect is very important BUT dont take advantages..

In new media we suppose to be more creative in presenting ideas to public. Students instead of writing long essays may be they should come out with simple posters that can explained everything easier to understand. In this case why and hoe trees are important in climate change,, pollution and temperature control .

Many are talking about long tailed macaques in Malaysia. Not just local media but international media. Why many are interested not just for the story good or bad, conservation, killing, but also in research. We have many researchers from America, Japan and Europe are interested in long tailed macaques. How about the locals?
