    Being part of the homeroom project was such a gratifying experience for both teachers and students of

    Sri KDU. The whole reason behind the project, was to build awareness for the students and teachers
    about endangered animals in Malaysia.
    Malaysia is known for its breath taking landscape, strong cultural history and diverse flora and fauna
    as it is the 12th most biodiverse countries in the world and
    uniquely appreciated by nature enthusiasts. Sadly, Malaysia also
    has a history of deforestation, exploitation and species extinction.
    Malaysias track record for illegal poaching and wildlife trading in
    recent years has gained media attention and has brought down the
    reputation of the country.
    However, Malaysia has
    taken initiatives to conserve
    endangered species. Amongst the efforts taken not just by
    governmental bodies and agencies but also non-governmental
    and non- profit organisations are opening of wildlife sanctuaries
    mainly in Sabah and Sarawak. Their focus is mainly on
    conserving animals such as turtles, tapirs, sun bears and much
    more. These acts provide the needs for the endangered species
    to survive and try repopulate its species.

    Numerous national parks have been built all over Malaysia such as Taman Negara and the Kinabalu
    National Park. These national parks protect the best of our natural heritage. The stunning
    landscapes, extraordinary wildlife and majestic forests,
    together with other protected areas they form the basis
    of our economic and social wellbeing, attracting
    millions of visitors annually, and help to protect
    Malaysias unique wildlife by acting as a refuge for
    threatened species. Although their primary purpose is
    the protection of biodiversity, National Parks also
    deliver other invaluable economic, social, cultural and
    health benefits to Malaysians. Future generations
    deserve the right to see these natural values intact and
    protected as we do today.
