How far we have studied in detail on nature and understand how they benefit us

This kind of basic work can be done by local students and teachers. We do not have to depend on universities or professors to do it. They may supervise the activities. We need to educate more school children and teachers on basic sciences.

Taman Negara suppose to be well protected, conserve and a lot of scientific information for visitors. Not just for tourism

 

Conservation of Pulau Kukup Mangrove Island

Kukup island is an uninhabited island located in the south-western region of the state of Johor in Peninsular Malaysia. It is located about 1 km offshore from the mainland town called Kukup Laut. The island is about 647 ha in size with an 800 ha intertidal mudflat around the island.

The island was gazetted as a State Park in 1997 and it was designated as a Ramsar site of Malaysia in 2003. Pulau Kukup is a popular tourism site. Every year there is a high flow of tourists from neighbouring countries like Singapore and Indonesia visiting Kukup town for its famous seafood. This highly populated town is a fishing village and dominated by the Chinese.
