A. COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION Community, when broadly defined, compasses several stakeholders groups: government agencies, conservation groups, non-government organization, developers, workers, local communities, tourist, indigenous people and many others. Each group tries to advance its own interest, which could be profit, political power, security of tenure, environmental protection, cultural preservation, or satisfaction. Through the process of community participation, planners and developers will be able to uncover what issues are important to each of the stakeholder groups and use this as a basis for addressing such issues.
