Abstract
The paper evaluates dipterocarp forest management as documented in approved logging plans in comparison with the quantitative and qualitative criteria as prescribed in the Selective Management System. The anticipated impact of logging on the resource base is assessed and amendments to the Selective Management System are proposed. A simple cost-benefit Pi analysis gives an account of the most significant financial results from logging and in view of the profits generally achieved the chances to enforce reduced-impact harvesting are discussed.
