This emission is immediate to individual action and causes a type of contamination. Once the oil spill has happened, the oil spills repeatedly destroy maritime creatures such as fin whales, giant starfish, giant clams, and other related maritime creatures. The oil spill can make it difficult for marine creatures to inhale appropriately and interrupt their capability to communicate in the ocean. Thus, this paper reviews the effect of the oil spill on the current oil spill incidents in Malaysia. The respondents were received from 11 related agencies involved in the oil spill response. It is vital to examine the effect of the oil spill since Malaysia has faced 130 oil spill cases from 2014 until 2022 as reported by the Department of Environment (DOE). The analysis was established on 59 expert responses received from 11 related agencies involves in responding to the oil spill incidents in Malaysia. Based on the effects of the oil spill, the results show that the top five effects of the oil spill response are shown as follows. Firstly, the highest is to create damage to the marine life, ecosystem, and pollution of the seawater. Secondly, crops affect coastal life, fisheries industries, food insecurity, food supply, and the marine community. Thirdly, to influence the marine environment. Fourthly, it creates harm to tourism activities and economic loss. Finally, to raise the cost of cleaning activities, increase manpower cost, increase the recovery process, and increase time consumption. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG. 2023. date: 2023 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85174863365&doi=10.1007%2f978-3-031-38993-1_22&partnerID=40&md5=4a22678109322e5fc28b3bc553a4e91e id_number: 10.1007/978-3-031-38993-1₂₂ full_text_status: none publication: Advanced Structured Materials volume: 193 pagerange: 233-241 refereed: TRUE citation: Che Ishak, I. and Md Arof, A. and Zoolfakar, M.R. and Rozali, M.F. and Salleh, H.S. and Isha, A.S.N. and Mohd Sabri, N.A.
