Why this petition matters

Started by The Body Shop Malaysia

The pride of Malaysia is fading. There are less than 200 animals surviving scattered throughout the big forests of Peninsular Malaysia, locally known as the Central Forest Spine. The populations are already fragmented due to the loss of habitat connectivity and poaching. There is no crisis greater than tiger extinction in Malaysia's nature conservation history. 

Poachers from Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar, Thailand and Malaysia are infiltrating the forests, robbing Malaysia and her future generations of their national heritage. And for every tiger killed, countless of other animals fall victim to snares.

The only measure left to save the Malayan tiger is military protection against poaching now. 

If Nepal could mobilize 8,000 army personnel to ensure protection of then 120 tigers, now doubled, the Malayan tiger too deserves the same level of protection. The Malaysian experts said that 2,000 was a more realistic number of army personnel we could expect to be deployed that might still effectively fight the poachers.

Therefore, we want to call upon the government to send 2,000 army personnel to patrol our Peninsular Malaysia forests to prevent our Malayan tiger from imminent extinction and to increase our tiger population. 

We need your help! Please sign this petition here now or in any of The Body Shop stores in Peninsular Malaysia and Sabah.
