Question

Read the following passage from a press release written in April 2009. “The illegal trade of wildlife is a major threat to Southeast Asia’s biodiversity. The criminal nature of the trade not only contributes to the extinction of internationally protected species, but has further repercussions for Malaysia’s international stature. Illegal trade in wildlife impacts a wide variety of species of animals and plants, from those which are little known to the public to those with the highest profile such as the tiger, the emblem of Malaysia. Illegal trade in wildlife benefits only a few individuals, but the loss of biodiversity which results from this will leave future generations of Malaysians with a country that will never be quite the same as that which their parents and grandparents knew.” After reading the above passage, who does illegal trade benefit?
