Penang Butterfly Farm has been notable for its professional consultancy
- PBF has, for example, acted as a consultancy firm for a Malaysian public listed housing development company (SP Setia) to enhance their housing project with a recreated butterfly habitat. As a leading private housing development company has pioneered in a new concept by incorporating a recreated butterfly habitat into their new residential housing project known as Setia Eco Park and invested also in a butterfly conservatory to enhance the educational value for the residents’ young generation.
Penang Butterfly Farm, as their consultant, has followed their development progress since 2004 and has apparently succeeded up to this stage whereby the host plants for more than 20 selected species of local butterflies identified at the nearby Forest Reserve have thrived very well and the on going propagation work has
been on schedule.
Butterflies have started to appear and we are hopeful that we will achieve our objective of a sustainable environment with significant colonies of butterflies flying around this Eco Park in foreseeable future. But eventually the maturing process of the ecological balance will determine the end result, particularly in relation to predation and diseases of these re-introduced butterflies.
