中文摘要:农业生物技术的应用引起了许多利益相关者的兴趣。在过去20年里,转基因作物产量迅速增加。尽管转基因作物有着众所周知的好处,但转基因作物不仅对人类和动物的健康有威胁,而且对环境造成了一定的风险。马来西亚允许使用转基因技术,但必须采取与国际义务和国内法律框架相一致的预防和安全措施。本文概述了转基因作物技术的国际和国内背景,并探讨了在马来西亚应用该技术的治理与问题。马来西亚的转基因研究活动仍处于研究和开发的早期阶段,大多数授权的转基因作物仅能用于粮食、饲料和加工。尽管马来西亚没有在商业上种植任何转基因作物,但朝着这样一个方向采取行动似乎大有可为。
外文摘要:The application of agricultural biotechnology attracts the interest of many stakeholders. Genetically modified (GM) crops, for example, have been rapidly increasing in production for the last 20 years. Despite their known benefits, GM crops also pose many concerns not only to human and animal health but also to the environment. Malaysia, in general, allows the use of GM technology applications but it has to come with precautionary and safety measures consistent with the international obligations and domestic legal frameworks. This paper provides an overview of GM crop technology from international and national context and explores the governance and issues surrounding this technology application in Malaysia. Basically, GM research activities in Malaysia are still at an early stage of research and development and most of the GM crops approved for release are limited for food, feed and processing purposes. Even though Malaysia has not planted any GM crops commercially, actions toward such a direction seem promising. Several issues concerning GM crops as discussed in this paper will become more complex as the number of GM crops and varieties commercialised globally increase and Malaysia starts to plant GM crops.
