Reef Check is the world’s largest international coral reef monitoring programme involving volunteer recreational divers and marine scientists. Its mission is to raise awareness of the importance of, and threats to, coral reefs. Part of the worldwide Reef Check network, Reef Check Malaysia (RCM) was registered as a non-profit organization in 2007. Since then, it has used the results of its annual Reef Check surveys to highlight numerous problems faced by coral reefs in Malaysia, including overfishing, pollution and sedimentation from land-based development. We work with government and the private sector to find solutions to these problems. Almost all our funds come from donations, from both companies and individuals. To continue our monitoring programme, we are seeking funds to support our 2016 survey programme, with a target of 200 sites all around Malaysia.
