Conservationists are concerned for the flora and fauna, as well as the livelihood of the local community when news of a proposed development in Kuala Selangor Nature Park (KSNP) broke out.

Opened in 1987, the park in Selangor currently managed by Malaysian Nature Society (MNS), is housed within a 324ha land comprising a coastal mangrove forest (104ha), secondary forest (200ha), brackish water lake (8.09ha) and coastal mudflats.
