Abstract
Managing natural resources sustainably is essential in this contemporary era
of land use planning system. This includes managing and planning the
invaluable of coastal areas. In this regards, coastal management programmes
have been regarded as a key approach in delivering the coastal strategies and
objectives towards achieving a sustainable coastal development worldwide.
This is supported by the good governance to ensure that the implementation
of coastal development is successful. As such, this paper suggests that the
aspect of good governance as one essential element of coastal management
that can and should make a substantial contribution to planning and
managing coastal land uses in Malaysia. It has many positive implications to
the environmental, social and economic sectors. The experience of Lembaga
Urus Air Selangor (LUAS) in managing the coastal areas via the
implementation of good governance indicates the requirement of good
governance in ensuring a successful coastal management. In addition,
financial element has become a significant attribute in implementing coastal
management initiatives. This study offers input in planning literatures by
addressing the integration of coastal management, good local governance,
land use planning and financial elements which are very relevant with
today‘s current global changes on environment as a whole.
