摘要:AbstractThe paper argues that though environment court is an important development in the court system in Malaysia, settlement via alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods can be promising options available to all stakeholders involved in urbanisation era, i.e. developers, government agencies and citizens at large. Using the comparative qualitative approach, this paper provides the methodology behind the proposed application of various environmental ADR. The paper concludes that environmental ADR provides citizens with a structured dispute settlement system that secures the developers, government agencies’ and citizens’ rights and mutual benefits even without going through traditional legal proceedings.
