Thus, two objectives are highlighted; (i) to examine Sabah's current practice (rights distribution) in urban-rural POS governance and (ii) to explore the POS social dilemmas that tied in with such institution. Reviews of interdisciplinary analytic perspectives, content analysis on documents and semi-structured interviews were performed. The practice with diverse property-rights structure is indicatively perceived as property-rights tragedies' which ensue in sub-optimal POS and quality of life issues. Therefore, re-engineering of POS market via dynamic property-rights re-assignment is postulated as the panacea for improved well-being.</p> ER -
