Considering Mulu’s spectacular scenery and its biological significance, it was not surprising that Mulu was successfully listed as a World Heritage site in November 2000. To qualify for world heritage status a property must meet one of the four following criteria:
- Be an outstanding example of the world’ geological history (Caves and cave deposits)
- Be and outstanding representative example of on-going evolutionary processes (current research programmes)
- Be of exceptional beauty!
- Contain significant natural habitat for in-situ conservation of biological diversity and the protection of threatened species (wide range of cave and forest habitats).
MULU MEETS ALL FOUR CRITERIA!
