Biodiversity

Rural-based businesses such as agri-food and tourism, which have traditionally been two of our strongest indigenous enterprise sectors, are built on the natural and human capital found in rural areas. Rural areas hold much of Sarawak’s natural resources, biodiversity and visitor attractions, and rural communities are important guardians of our heritage, culture and natural capital.

The Government of Sarawak through the Ministry of Urban Development and Natural Resource has signed a memorandum of understanding with JICA to implement the project on 23rd April 2020. The implementation of the project was supposed to start in 2020 but was delayed due to Covid-19 pandemic.
