AB  - The main purpose of this study is to discuss the sensitivity 
  of farmers living in the Cameron Highlands towards the changing climate. This 
  is a qualitative study in which a focus group discussion was conducted by 4 
  researchers from Universiti Putra Malaysia with 4 farmers from the Cameron Highlands, 
  Pahang. The Cameron Highlands is one of the main agricultural areas and tourist 
  attractions in Malaysia. However in recent years, the changing climate has brought 
  threats to the environment, ecology and agricultural products, thereby negatively 
  affecting socio-economic aspects relating to farmersin the area. From the analysis 
  performed, it can be confirmed that Cameron Highlands farmers have realized 
  that environmental changes are occurring in the region and also recognize the 
  disastrous impacts that the changing climate is having on their agricultural 
  activities. Based on the findings, it is recommended that the appropriate parties 
  strictly monitor and observe any illegal environment-related activities.
