description Peninsular Malaysia has achieved rapid economic growth in the forestry sector. During the period 1972 to 1992, log production increased one and one halftimes and earnings from the exporting of logs and wood products multiplied six and one half times. The above information explains the foward linkages supported by the forest resources.

The status of the above issues will be deliberated in a natural resource accounting framework.
