PETALING JAYA, Aug 26 — Minister of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad today promised to find ways to streamline the Peninsular Malaysia Forestry Department and the Wildlife and National Parks Department so they can both work seamlessly without conflict in the future.
“I have already raised the financial issue to the Ministry of Finance and I will be meeting them in two weeks time to talk about the upcoming budget tabling. I want to ask for a bigger budget as it is getting more costly to handle and fix issues that surround our forests and the Orang Asli community,” he said at the 12th Orang Asli Land Conference held at the Armada Hotel here.
Some of the participants related their experience, and claimed that government agencies did nothing to prevent large companies from destroying their native lands. “We will get all the heads of state together with the prime minister and so we can discuss this matter holistically and come up with solutions,” the minister said.
