LIGHT pollution is defined as any artificial outdoor light that is excessive, misdirected or invasive. Reducing light pollution does not mean turning off all the lights but being sensible about using appropriate lighting.
Spearheaded by the National Space Agency (Angkasa), Malaysia was supposed to formulate a light pollution legislation two years ago after it was found that severe light pollution in Kuala Lumpur city affected the observation work at the National Planetarium. But there has been a deafening silence over the promulgation of this law since then.
