Corporate Outcome and Output (UNDP Strategic Plan 2018-2021)

The main recommendations of the terminal evaluation are:
1. The parties involved in the project (EPU, MONRE/FRIM, UNDP) should collaborate to initiate
the establishment of the trust fund for sustainable management and conservation of all
threatened peat swamp forests sites in Malaysia.
2. In order to ensure sustainable management and continued implementation of the IMPs at all
three sites ownership is needed by the respective states. The national wetland policy of NRE
could support this through liberation of resources and maintained support.
3. Ecological monitoring should be incorporated as a standard operational procedure (SOP) in
the forest departments in Pahang, Sabah and Sarawak. The IMS should be made a standard
Forestry Department software package and be implemented by the GIS sections in each
Forestry Department. FRIM and the Forest Research Divisions at Sarawak and Sabah should
provide technical support in implementation of both the SOP and IMS.

4. Access to Loagan Bunut NP should be seriously addressed and improved. We recommend
stronger action in addressing erosion problems with plantation establishment and forestry
activities in the areas surrounding Loagan Bunut NP to stop sedimentation of the lake.
5. The market for voluntary carbon-offset programme should be further investigated. The funds
can be used to further improve management at all three project sites.
6. The developed capacity and information on PSF currently being kept at FRIM UNDP office
should be safeguarded for future use.
