    18/9/2016 OFFICIAL LAUNCHING OF BUKIT DUMBAR PUMPING STATION 2 Community Home > Metro > Community Tuesday, 20 September 2016 Southern Penang gets uninterrupted water supply CONTINUOUS good water supply to the Bayan Lepas Free Trade Zone, Penang International Airport and southern parts of Penang island is now better guaranteed following the commission of a new water pump station at Bukit Dumbar. Called BD2, it could pump up to 270 million litres of water per day (MLD) to serve 315,000 people living in the southern parts of the island. PBAPP senior chargeman Mohd Yusri Awang checking the reading of a pump at the newly opened Bukit Dumbar Pump Station 2 in Penang. Its service areas cover Gelugor, Batu Uban, Sungai Nibong, Bayan Baru, Relau, Sungai Ara, Batu Maung, Bayan Lepas, Permatang Damar Laut, Teluk Kumbar, Gertak Sanggul, Genting and Balik Pulau. Penang Water Supply Corporation Sdn Bhd (PBAPP) chief executive officer Datuk Jaseni Maidinsa said the RM11.9mil BD2 would complement the operations of the Bukit Dumbar Pump Station 1 (BD1) that had been in service since 1980. He said it would improve pumping efficiency of water from the Sungai Dua Water Treatment Plant on the mainland to southern areas of the island which were undergoing rapid socio-economic development. “Treated water from the Sungai Dua plant is delivered to Bukit Dumbar daily via twin submarine pipeline,” Jaseni said at the launching of BD2 on Sunday. He said BD2 would also reduce pumping costs to the Bukit Gedong Reservoir daily to support the treated water needs of Teluk Kumbar, Gertak Sanggul and Balik Pulau.

  • Why Is Pronunciation So Difficult to Learn?

Abbas Pourhossein Gilakjani (Corresponding author) School of Educational Studies, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Malaysia 3A-05-06 N-Park Jalan Batu Uban 11700 Gelugor Pulau Pinang Malaysia Tel: 60-174-181-660 E-mail: [email protected] Mohammad Reza Ahmadi School of Educational Studies, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Malaysia 3A-05-06 N-Park Alan Batu Uban 1700 Gelugor Pulau Pinang Malaysia Tel: 60-175-271-870 E-mail: [email protected] Received: January 8, 2011 Accepted: March 21, 2011 doi:10.5539/elt.v4n3p74 Abstract In many English language classrooms, teaching pronunciation is granted the least attention. When ESL teachers defend the poor pronunciation skills of their students, their arguments could either be described as a cop-out with respect to their inability to teach their students proper pronunciation or they could be regarded as taking a stand against linguistic influence. If we learn a second language in childhood, we learn to speak it fluently and without a ‘foreign accent’; if we learn in adulthood, it is very unlikely that we will attain a native accent. In this study, the researchers first review misconceptions about pronunciation, factors affecting the learning of pronunciation. Then, the needs of learners and suggestions for teaching pronunciation will be reviewed. Pronunciation has a positive effect on learning a second language and learners can gain the skills they need for effective communication in English. Keywords: Pronunciation, Learning, Teaching, Misconceptions, Factors, Needs, Suggestions 1. Introduction General observation suggests that it is those who start to learn English after their school years are most likely to have serious difficulties in acquiring intelligible pronunciation, with the degree of difficulty increasing markedly with age.

  • The Political Economy of Federal-State Relations: How the Centre Influences Resource Distribution to the Periphery Policy Ideas NO
    Policy Ideas № 63 May 2020 Tricia Yeoh is a Fellow at IDEAS and also PhD Candidate in Politics at the School of Politics, History and International Relations, University of Nottingham Malaysia. She is researching opposition subnational politics in dominant party authoritarian regimes. The author thanks Kai Ostwald, Liew Chin Tong, Ali Salman and Aira Azhari for feedback to this paper, Laurence Todd, Lim Mah Hui, and Wei Zhang for their insights on state and local fundraising. 2 The Political Economy of Federal-State Relations: How the centre influences resource distribution to the periphery Policy Ideas NO. 63 Introduction This is the second in a series of three policy papers on contemporary challenges surrounding federalism in Malaysia today, the first of which was Policy Ideas No. 59, titled “Restoring the Spirit of Federalism: Policy Options for a New Malaysia”. This paper will explore more exclusively the political influences stemming from the federal government and how to mitigate for such effects for a more well-functioning, sustainable fiscal regime of the country’s states. The changes in Malaysia’s recent political landscape are meaningful and consequential on the country’s complex dynamics of federal-state relations. Historically a contested relationship where the centre influences much of the resource allocation and distribution to the periphery, this policy paper traces how this took shape during the early years of Malaysia’s formation and brings to the fore current developments. It argues that the federal government has strategically determined resource allocation through a number of means including through party-centred state administrations, administrative encroachment for greater political control, constitutional and legal requirements and by use of the politico-bureaucratic complex.

  • Report on the State of Religious Liberty In
    REPORT ON THE STATE OF RELIGIOUS LIBERTY IN MALAYSIA FOR THE YEARS 2009 & 2010 Prepared by the Religious Liberty Commission National Evangelical Christian Fellowship Malaysia Page 1 of 50 1 BACKGROUND TO THE TWO YEARS UNDER REVIEW 1.1 Introduction In 2009, Malaysia witnessed a change in her political leadership when Najib Tun Razak became the nation’s sixth Prime Minister. In contrast to the start of Abdullah Ahmad Badawi’s administration in early 2004, the Christian community was noticeably less optimistic about the political environment surrounding issues of religious liberty when Najib assumed office in April 2009. As is well known, Abdullah was forced to step down because of his perceived poor leadership of his party, the United Malay National Organisation (UMNO), and to accept responsibility for the results of the March 2008 General Elections which saw the Barisan Nasional (BN) lose its two-thirds majority in Parliament as well as the governments of three major West Coast states. UMNO is the senior member of BN, the ruling coalition. On assuming the Prime Minister’s office, Najib, like those before him, began his tenure by defining his vision and direction for the country. Abdullah and Dr Mahathir Mohamad had also done so but Najib’s was in trumping spades, going by the sheer number and breathtaking level of ambition. Through the introduced “1Malaysia” concept, he implied the promise of more social cohesiveness and less ethnically- and religiously- motivated governance. He also introduced the slogan “People First, Performance Now” to counter the public image that the BN was an elitist organisation that only looked out for itself and whose policy results fell far short of its rhetoric.

  • PENANG MUSEUMS, CULTURE and HISTORY Abu Talib Ahmad
    Kajian Malaysia, Vol. 33, Supp. 2, 2015, 153–174 PENANG MUSEUMS, CULTURE AND HISTORY Abu Talib Ahmad School of Humanities, Universiti Sains Malaysia, MALAYSIA Email: [email protected] The essay studies museums in Penang, their culture displays and cultural contestation in a variety of museums. Penang is selected as case study due to the fine balance in population numbers between the Malays and the Chinese which is reflected in their cultural foregrounding in the Penang State Museum. This ethnic balance is also reflected by the multiethnic composition of the state museum board. Yet behind this façade one could detect the existence of culture contests. Such contests are also found within the different ethnic groups like the Peranakan and non-Peranakan Chinese or the Malays and the Indian-Muslims. This essay also examines visitor numbers and the attractiveness of the Penang Story. The essay is based on the scrutiny of museum exhibits, museum annual reports and conversations with former and present members of the State Museum Board. Keywords: Penang museums, State Museum Board, Penang Story, museum visitors, culture and history competition INTRODUCTION The phrase culture wars might have started in mid-19th century Germany but it came into wider usage since the 1960s in reference to the ideological polarisations among Americans into the liberal and conservative camps (Hunter, 1991; Luke, 2002). Although not as severe, such wars in Malaysia are manifested by the intense culture competition within and among museums due to the pervasive influence of ethnicity in various facets of the national life.
