The aim of this paper is to showcase the level of public involvement in Local Agenda 21 programs implemented by the Seremban Municipal Council, Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia. In order to explore the actual dimensions of public participatory practices, survey sessions were conducted in the residential areas around Seremban. It was found that 35% of the respondents are involved with the Local Agenda 21 programs organized by the Seremban Municipal Council. Further analysis found that most of the respondents participated in the cleanliness activities such as gotong-royong. This analysis of participation is proved through the involvement of the public in an authority's Local Agenda 21 practices. The research outcome is significant to fill in the knowledge gap and thus enhance the public participation in the local government administration in Malaysia especially through the Local Agenda 21 program.
