Invasive alien species (IAS) are plants, animals, pathogens and other organisms that are non-native to an ecosystem, and which may cause economic or environmental harm or adversely affect human health. Increasing travel, shipping and trade, and tourism associated with globalization and expansion of the human population have facilitated the intentional and unintentional movement of species beyond natural biogeographical barriers, and many of these alien species have become invasive. In Malaysia, IAS control is predominantly directed to the agriculture and commodity sector with relatively small emphasis on its impact on local biodiversity. The National Committee on Invasive Alien Species was established to implement and deliberate on IAS management. Target 11 strives to control the establishment and spread of IAS through an integrated approach of research, education and awareness; as well as strengthening inspection and control at the border.
