MyBIS - Malaysia Biodiversity Information System, Malaysia's Clearing House Mechanism

This book highlights the history, journey, activities and achievements of the MyBIS project from the early establishment of a website and a database of Flora of Peninsular Malaysia (FPMO) until the rebranding to MyBIS. This project started with the documentation of flora in Malaysia. Then, the Forest Research Institute Malaysia (FRIM) started to collaborate with other agencies to include the documentation of fauna and fungi. This information helps many botanists, experts, policymakers and the public to learn more about biodiversity in Malaysia, which will help in raising public awareness and shaping the sustainable management of forest in Malaysia.
