An Evaluation Of The Implementation Of World Heritage Convention In Malaysia: A Cast Study Of The Mining Landscape Of Kinta Valley
From the authority's preparation for Ipoh's UNESCO listing in 2010 to giving up the effort of gaining the international recognition in 2012, the journey to search what went wrong is imminent. As a party of the World Heritage Convention, the relevant legislations and gazetted documents or plans are researched at three levels, national, state and municipal/district. A problem-state-response framework is deemed suitable for the research approach of this case study as a way to pinpoint whether the implementation of World Heritage Convention in Malayisa is effective, as portrayed in the conservation and protection efforts of the post-industrial (tin-mining) landscape of Kinta Valley.
This particular case study takes proactive measures in providing constructive suggestions to ensure Malaysia, as a party of World Heritage Convention, continues to implement heritage conservation and preservation policies in an equitable and efficient manner.
