    Abstract

    The Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) has been established as a mandatory requirement in Malaysia with the introduction of Section 34A to the Environmental Quality Act 197 4(EQA) and its subsidiary legislation Environment Quality (Prescribed Activities) (Environmental Impact Assessment) Order 1987. This study critically examines the implementation and enforcement of public participation in the Malaysian EIA process. This is done by reviewing the provisions in the EIA laws and guidelines, court decisions on public participation as well as information gathered from the stakeholders interview
