The aim is to gather minded Naturalists and Scientists as well as people who would like to learn more about wildlife particularly Langkawi’s Natural Heritage to converge in an indoor setting to hear what the experts have to say about the subject.

We are very privileged to have Dr. Laurence Kirton a world authority on Entomology and Malaysia’s foremost expert on butterflies in Malaysia and Singapore as a key speaker on butterflies. His presence will surely add greater scientific significance and influence for Langkawi.
