Abstract

Malaysia is surrounded by ocean, approximately, 515,000 square kilometers covered by maritime realm and 4,576 km in length by coastline. The country has terrestrial borders with Thailand, Brunei Darussalam and Indonesia and has maritime borders with Thailand, Brunei Darussalam, Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam and the Philippines. In addition Malaysia has many institutions for managing the marine environment. Hence the development of the institution and the scope still has some ambiguity, conflict and overlapping marine because organizations exist on the basis of a resolution of the Parliament. While on the physical condition, especially in the marine environment is difficult to determine the resolution authority area to an area of true governance. This paper addresses the need on collaborative design approach that fits into Malaysian marine space governance scenario, in particular with respect to stakeholder management. This paper first reviews several international collaborative designs. An exemplary model of collaborative has been developed, which constitutes the key factors that determine the success of collaborative implementation. This model is pending for experimentation to examine its effectiveness on Malaysia marine space governance.
