Recent forest and land-use policy changes in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo: Are they truly transformational? por Ng, J.S.C., Chervier, C., Ancrenaz, M., Naito, D., Karsenty, A.

“…We conclude by emphasising the change must be made more compelling for political leaders, as part of a broader institutional structure, not only through the narrow focus on reducing deforestation but through the development of a more sustainable and equitable national economy, and that consumer countries should play a role in reducing pressures on forest by providing incentives to a state that manages its natural resources sustainably.…”
