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.

  • Why Is Pronunciation So Difficult to Learn?
    www.ccsenet.org/elt English Language Teaching Vol. 4, No. 3; September 2011 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.

This was followed by the opening of Ikea and IKEA Meeting Place in March 2019 and December 2019 respectively. The group is targeting to complete Vertu Resort and Beacon Executive Suites in 2021, although the completion dates may be delayed due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Other projects include: - Vivo Executive Apartment (expected TOP: 2023) - Viluxe (Phase1) (expected TOP: 2023) - Vogue Lifestyle Residence As at 31 December 2019, TRI PINNACLE and Beacon Executive Suites have achieved sales of 91% and 64% respectively. Vervea and Vertu Resort are 89% and 71% sold respectively. (i) With sales of 91% achieved, there are approximately 110-120 units left at TRI PINNACLE. What are management’s plans for the remaining units of TRI PINNACLE? The TOP for the project was obtained in December 2018. (ii) Can management confirm that it is the group’s strategy to sell the units in commercial developments (for example, Vervea) and thus it would not be building up an investment portfolio for recurring income at this stage of the group’s growth? It was stated the group envisioned the investments in Aloft Hotel, the Regional Integrated Shopping Centre and the Shah Alam Integrated Logistics Hub would contribute to its recurring income in years to come.

    Malaysian Journal of Microbiology, Vol 3(1) 2007, pp. 27-30 http://dx.doi.org/10.21161/mjm.00407 SHORT COMMUNICATION Diversity of Fusarium species in cultivated soils in Penang Latiffah, Z., * Mohd Zariman M and Baharuddin, S. School of Biological Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia, 11800 Minden, Penang E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Fusarium species were isolated from 12 cultivated soil planted with different crops in Penang. A total of 42 Fusarium isolates were recovered in which four Fusarium species were identified namely, F. solani, F. semitectum, F. equiseti and F. oxysporum. The most prevalent Fusarium species recovered was F. solani (84%), followed by F. semitectum (7%), F. equiseti (7%) and F. oxysporum (2%). The present study showed that Fusarium populations are diverse within cultivated soils and could be potential inoculum to infect certain agriculture crops. Keywords: diversity, Fusarium, cultivated soil INTRODUCTION Fusarium species are ubiquitous in soil and have been the soil samples were passed through 200 µm sieve. For isolated from various soil types in tropical and temperate each soil samples, approximately 1- 2 g were spread over regions from desert soil to artic and alpine soils. However, peptone chloro-nitro benzene (PCNB) media, with four the majority of Fusarium species were recovered in replicates. The plates were incubated at room temperature cultivated soils especially near the soil surface. Fusarium for 5 – 7 days or until visible sign of colony growth. The species occurred widely in cultivated soils and often plates were observed under a binocular microscope and associated with plant roots either as parasites or the colonies formed were then transferred onto potato saprophytes (Booth, 1971).
