to National Government of Malaysia, Government of Sabah, Sime Darby Foundation, Professor Thomas Hildebrandt and Professor Mohd. Lokman Isa and their teams, and many other people, for having the foresight to provide the resources that ensure that the genomes of the three last indigenous rhinos in Malaysia are now preserved in living cell cultures.

Let us hope that the various mutually-beneficial potential international partners who have so far regarded Malaysia as an outlier rather than a leader, will be able to see and understand the possibilities. And initiate programmes that will act on threats to critically endangered species at cell, organ and population levels as well as the individual animal level.

• Locating and capture of rare wildlife in remote sites
• Safe sedation, anaesthesia and recovery of large animals
• National and regional species management plans
• Supply of planting materials for enrichment of wildlife habitat, wildlife habitat improvement and creation of wildlife corridors
• Devising programmes that can generate new sources of wealth from wild plants and animal species

• Translocation in support of species population management
• Management of  small captive populations
• Establishment of new populations of rare species in new sites
• Hybridisation of domestic and
  wild cattle for enhancement of domestic meat production
• Assisted reproductive technologies (in association with Sabah Wildlife Department, Universiti Malaysia Sabah and International Islamic University Malaysia)
