Abstract

This chapter argues that laws regulating marine scientific research have to be developed in Malaysia. The main argument in this Chapter is that it requires two sets of entities, namely the national scientists and the related competent scientific organizations on the one hand together with a sound institutional administrative mechanism on the other for the comprehensive development of the laws and procedure on marine scientific research for a state. The corpus juris of these regulations are derived from the provisions of the 1982 Law of the Sea Convention, the content of national legislation of states and the best practices as advocated by the United Nations as adopted by the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission. The existing Malaysian regulations on the subject should also be strengthened into a comprehensive national legislation.
