Let’s count garden birds on 20th & 21st June
Post
Make a date with garden birds on 20 and/or 21 June 2015 and join us in counting the birds in your garden.
Thank you, counters, for your unwavering commitment since 2010. We look forward to your sightings in June.
New to MYGB? Welcome to citizen science! MY Garden Birdwatch is a joint effort by new, semi-serious and hardcore birdwatchers who devote 30 minutes every June to build a databank on garden bird populations in Malaysia.
Why a databank? Well, statistics can tell us a lot on bird population trends and offer insights into the fascinating world of birds. The more sites we have, the more solid the data generated. This year, have your green patch represented on this map—find out how, here or watch this video:

Lend your support towards the Save the Selangor Water Tower Signature Campaign
Post
The Selangor State Park is facing threats of degazettement with the latest proposal with regards to the East Klang Valley Expressway (EKVE). The Park protects over 90% of Selangor, KL and Putrajaya’s current water supply. However, the proposed alignment of the EKVE threatens pristine sections of the catchment forests that make up the Park.
We have just gone through a very challenging water rationing period where we should realise by now how precious our water supply is. So, let us join our voices and efforts to tell the authorities that we Malaysians do not want the proposed highway to cut through our precious water catchment forests and destroy the habitats of many flora and faunas.
We would like to invite you to lend your support in gathering signatures at designated public places which is convenient for you. You can download the form by clicking here
AND, if you have not signed the online petition, you can do so here. Don’t forget to share this link on your social media pages encouraging your family and friends to sign.
Please email mns@mns.org.my if you wish to volunteer in collecting signatures. Deadline to submit all signed forms is 20th May 2014.
Join us to speak up for our forest!

Stop EKVE, Save Selangor State Park – Deadline to voice out extended!
Post
The proposed degazettement involves 106.55 hectares of land from four forest reserves in Selangor, namely the Ampang, Bukit Seputeh, Ulu Gombak and Ulu Langat Forest Reserves. Two of the forest reserves, Ampang and Ulu Gombak, form part of the Selangor State Park and are important water catchments for the Klang Valley.
The Selangor State Government has publicly announced this proposal and welcome objections from the public concerning this proposal. MNS together with WWF Malaysia and TRees are in the Protection of the Selangor State Park (SSP) coalition and are currently collecting signatures from the public to submit to the state government. The deadline to submit objections has been extended until 26th March 2014!!
So, please lend your voice to support this campaign. Your voice is crucial to save and protect Malaysia’s natural treasures.
Click here to find out how you can voice out your objections.
Thank you for your support and lets save our forests!
