Abstract
Continuous pandemic of sustainable development rise numerous concern, hence resulting towards integration of multidimensional principle as an underlay in order to form sound decision-making process especially in ecological -sensitive area such as Tasik Kenyir . This study develops the structural framework for decision-making inclusive of all variables in order to strive for sustainable development of Tasik Kenyir in order to promote responsible tourism practices. Several criteria are selected and analyzed using Multi-criteria Analysis (to show the corresponding trade-off); ranged from economic , ecological and social variables such as economic revenue, employment , conservation of flora and fauna and environmental quality. The results show that under different scenarios, the score of different type of variables will change accordingly.
