The 5th Asian Pacific Coral Reef Symposium (APCRS) was recently held at the National University of Singapore. Shahir represented Reef Check Malaysia (RCM) and Tioman Marine Conservation Group (TMCG) during the 5th APCRS. He presented on the involvement of Tioman local islanders in co-management in the Tioman Island Marine Park.
Shahir is born and raised on Tioman Island. He is a certified diver and always wanted to get involved in diving works. He first joined us as volunteer and later become one of the early members of TMCG.
We are very proud of him! Having no marine education background, he is now part of RCM, his 6th year, leads the TMCG members in conducting reef management activities and represents his community and RCM at international arena!
