        Malaysia has an astounding wide range of tourist attraction and the sheer diversity of tourism destinations.But now days, one of the famous tourism destination there is Cameron Highland  is facing a  serious problems that bring a ton of impact to our economy, residents at Cameron Highlands and also tourism industry.
        For Cameron Highlands, the illegal land clearing continuously occurs and its not only change the land side and the appearance of the high lands, but also causing the water pollution, soil erosion, and increasing of temperature. A lot of tourists from oversea and also local mentions that the temperature and the beautiful scenes of Cameron Highlands are getting worse year by year.Some of them felt disappointed to what happens at here.These problems  bring a big impact to tourism industry.

                                           *Now days....
          Ministry of  Natural Resources and Environment, Datuk Seri G.Palanivel mentions that
"Illegal clearing of land is a big problem to the residents of Cameron Highlands.
"Because agriculture in Cameron Highlands contributes over RM2bil worth of exports (annually), I will discuss with friends of the environment and farmers on how the problem can be overcome because if revenue (from tourism) is affected, the country will also lose,"

                                          *Now days
          To prevent this situation getting worse,I would like to cooperate with Ministry of natural resources and environment and Cameron Highlands District and Land Office to overcome this problem.Beside that, The campaign of "Save the nature,our home" will be organizes so that every residents in Cameron Highlands and also tourists can lend the helping hand to save this beautiful place.After that, we need to reduce the illegal stalls and arrange a place that can gather all the food,clothe or vegetables stalls together.A tidy place will bring a good impression to the tourists and also easy for them to choose what they want.We would do some promotions like cheaper bus tickets to there for local tourists and cheaper airplane tickets for tourists from other countries by cooperate with some company like Air Asia to come to our country.To prevent traffic jam in Cameron Highlands,we should encourage the tourists to use public transport that already prepared by the government.This solution not only reduce the air pollution and traffic jam, but it also prevent the increasing of temperature and complaints from tourists for waiting so long time to go to Cameron Highlands.

                                          *Previous years...

                                              *Previous years...
                                         
        By having all these solutions, the young generations in Malaysia still have the chance to enjoy he masterpiece of nature in Cameron Highlands.Besides that, the residents in Cameron Highlands won't facing any problems like water pollution and soil erosion. The most important is our tourism industry will not be affected any more while the tourist from local or other country will continuously increasing and this will increase the income for Malaysian to improve the quality of life.

                               * Because of the masterpiece of Nature, Malaysia Becomes A Truly Asia.

 

                                                   Save Nature, Save Cameron Highlands
