No results found.According to the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MEA), ecosystem services are classified as provisioning, regulating, cultural, and supporting, and these services are divided into 31 types of forest functions. These services and functions are also grouped as economic, social, and environmental categories of which are the three basic categories of services that are connected with Sustainable Forest Management (SFM). The purpose of this study is to identify any similarities and differences held by the public (represented by non-forestry major university students) and forestry experts (represented by forestry major university students) from two different countries (South Korea and Malaysia) to reveal the role of education and country of residence background in rating the importance and priorities of forest functions and values especially aesthetic values in terms of SFM. Questionnaires asking the participant to rate the importance of the 4 forest services and 31 functions and beliefs about priorities for 6 major values associated with forest management objectives were distributed through an internet web-based survey to forestry and non-forestry university students in South Korea and Malaysia. 306 students from universities in Malaysia and 314 students from universities in Korea had participated in this study. The results showed a difference in perception of forest functions and values between Korean and Malaysian university students regardless of their university major, showing that country of residence affected people’s awareness of forest functions and values. The results of this study can help in the development of the Criteria and Indicator (C&I) of Sustainable Forest Management.
