Jumlah itu meningkat ham-

MORE WRECKS
THE detention of a barge and its crew for allegedly looting a sunken 
WW2 warship throws into sharp relief the threat to other wrecks in 
Malaysian waters. The National Heritage Department says protective 
measures have been taken, but experts believe more needs to be 
done to save the vessels and their precious artefacts.

Dalam menyokong 
agenda berkenaan, 
Universiti Putra Malaysia

bagi meningkatkan

“Di I-AQUAS UPM, kita 
sudah berjaya membuat 
pembenihan ketam

kerjasama dengan Jabatan

untuk membuat pelepasan
