Challenges of Urban Space for Sustainable Solid Waste Management in the Langat Basin, Malaysia International Journal of the Malay World and Civilisation (Iman) 5(Special Issue 1), 2017: 59 - 66 (http://dx.doi.org/10.17576/IMAN-2017-05SI1-08) Challenges of Urban Space for Sustainable Solid Waste Management in the Langat Basin, Malaysia Cabaran Ruang Perbandaran terhadap Pengurusan Sisa Pepejal Lestari di Lembangan Langat, Malaysia AHMAD FARIZ MOHAMED, SHAHARUDIN IDRUS & ABDUL SAMAD HADI ABSTRACT Urbanization process in the Langat Basin, Malaysia, grow rapidly for the past three decades. The land use change urban areas of the basin increased from 2.3% in 1974 to 32% in 2010. While the population experiencing rapid growth from 665,395 in 1991 and increase to 1,492,422 in 2015. The vibrancy of economic activities with increasing of population, leads to increasing generation of solid waste in the basin. Solid waste generation increased from 332.7 ton/day in 1991 and increased to 1,641 ton/day in 2015. The current practice of waste management in the Langat Basin still focus on disposals to landfill. Previously there are nine landfill supporting the needs of the basin, however there are only three landfill left. The landfills closed were due to pressure from the development of residential, commercial and industrial areas. The demand for new landfill will compete for space with other economic activities and security of ecosystem services. Land are so precious, thus priorities will not be given for landfill in the Langat Basin. Hence there is a need for change of waste management. Priority should be given to resource recovery with waste recycling, waste reduction and waste reuse as the main approach, with support of other strategic plan such as designing product and system as well as using incinerator to ensure reduction of solid waste flow to landfill. These approaches and strategies will able to reduce dependency of space for new landfill in the Langat Basin in the future.

Perubahan penggunaan tanah kawasan bandar di Lembangan Langat meningkat daripada 2.3% pada tahun 1974 kepada 32% pada tahun 2010. Sementara itu pertumbuhan penduduk juga mengalami perkembangan yang pesat daripada 665.395 pada tahun 1991 dan meningkat kepada 1.492.422 pada tahun 2015. Kerancakan aktiviti ekonomi dengan peningkatan penduduk, membawa kepada meningkatkan penjanaan sisa pepejal di Lembangan Langat. Penjanaan sisa pepejal meningkat daripada 332,7 tan/hari pada tahun 1991 dan meningkat kepada 1,641 tan/hari pada tahun 2015. Amalan semasa pengurusan sisa di Lembangan Langat masih memberi tumpuan kepada pelupusan ke tapak pelupusan. Sebelum ini terdapat sembilan tapak pelupusan menyokong keperluan lembangan, namun hanya terdapat tiga tapak pelupusan kini. Tapak pelupusan ditutup adalah disebabkan oleh tekanan daripada pembangunan kawasan kediaman, perdagangan dan perindustrian. Permintaan untuk tapak pelupusan baru akan bersaing dengan aktiviti-aktiviti ekonomi yang lain dan keselamatan perkhidmatan ekosistem. Tanah yang begitu berharga, dengan itu keutamaan tidak akan diberikan untuk tapak pelupusan di Lembangan Langat. Oleh itu terdapat keperluan untuk perubahan pengurusan sisa pepejal. Keutamaan perlu diberikan kepada sumber pemulihan dengan kitar semula sisa pepejal, pengurangan sisa pepejal dan sisa pepejal digunakan semula sebagai pendekatan utama, dengan sokongan daripada pelan strategik yang lain seperti merekabentuk produk dan sistem serta penggunaan insinerator untuk memastikan pengurangan aliran sisa pepejal ke tapak pelupusan tidak berlebihan. Pendekatan dan strategi ini akan dapat mengurangkan kebergantungan ruang untuk tapak pelupusan baru di Lembangan Langat pada masa hadapan. Kata kunci: Ruang; bandar; sisa; permintaan; tapak pelupusan. INTRODUCTION determining the level of development process and what have been achieved.

The concept of LOS lies on the importance of an assessment of roadway operational performance services for the improvement of bus service delivery. A high performance of bus service delivery could relatively influence the satisfaction level of its users. This study assesses the LOS of three main designated routes of SMART buses in Kajang Selangor (KJ01, KJ02, and KJ03). The SMART buses are free buses provided under a free transit programme which aims to encourage people to use public transportation. An on-board survey and inventory observation were employed to collect the data. Findings indicate that KJ01, KJ02, and KJ03 fall under the category of LOS D considering the attributes of service frequency, service hours, passenger load/thresholds, and speed of bus. The discovery may serve as a useful guidance for the development of a comprehensive plan for LOS to be coordinated in improving the service quality of bus transportation.

  • The Perception of Planning Stakeholders in the Implementation of Kajang Municipal Council Local Plan 2020 with Reference to Public Facilities Sector
    THE PERCEPTION OF PLANNING STAKEHOLDERS IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF KAJANG MUNICIPAL COUNCIL LOCAL PLAN 2020 WITH REFERENCE TO PUBLIC FACILITIES SECTOR BY NUR AULIA BT ROSNI A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Science (Built Environment) Kulliyyah of Architecture and Environmental Design International Islamic University Malaysia JULY 2015 ABSTRACT The study examines the implementation of the Kajang Municipal Council Local Plan 2020 with reference to public facilities sector. Local plan is the document containing policies that guide the way of development planning and Local governance. It is the lowest tier of administrative authority as required by the Town and Country Planning Act 1976 (Act 172) and Local Government Act 1976 (Act 171). It forms the basis of the development plan of a locality in Malaysia. However, the efficiency of its implementation is questioned by those who have an interest in the planning practice, namely the stakeholders. The public facilities sector was chosen as the research subject, because it has been regarded by the Federal Department of Town and Country Planning Peninsular Malaysia as one of the most important indicators of sustainable development. The planning principles for public facilities provision has been categorized into four scopes, namely (i) Availability, (ii) Quantity, (iii) Location, and (iv) Condition. Data collection was conducted in three main settlement areas within Mukim Kajang - Kajang Town, Bangi Town and Bandar Baru Bangi. The research methods comprised of field survey, observation and document analysis, wherein all the data were analysed using SPSS software. The key findings of this study include (i) Lack of Stakeholders Involvement in Decision Making Process, (ii) Lack of Awareness among the Local Community, (iii) Issues in Public Facilities Monitoring and Maintenance, and (iv) Inability to implement the Public Facilities.

  • Waste Management in the City of Shah Alam, Malaysia
    Waste Management and the Environment IV 605 Waste management in the city of Shah Alam, Malaysia D. B. Omar Faculty of Architecture, Planning and Surveying, Universiti Teknologi MARA 40450 Shah Alam, Malaysia Nazrul Hisham bin Osman City Council of Shah Alam 40000 Malaysia Abstract Malaysia has been undergoing rather rapid urbanisation since the beginning of the 20th century. The level of urbanisation increased from 55.1 per cent in 1995 to 61.8 per cent in 2000, 63 per cent in 2005 and is expected to increase to 63.8 by 2010. The total population of Malaysia was 26.75 million in 2005 and is expected to increase to 28.96 million by 2010. This increase leads to more solid waste. The Klang Valley is the most urbanised region with 45 per cent of Malaysian urban centres being located here. The city of Shah Alam is one of the major centres in the Klang Valley and is a developing new town. Solid waste management is a major problem in the city of Shah Alam and new strategies are needed which aim at involving all citizens and achieving a sustainable environment. The City Council of Shah Alam requires waste compositional information at the local level to plan, implement and monitor waste management schemes that will enable them to meet their contribution to the national targets. This paper will discuss the current situation in the city of Shah Alam and the National Strategic Plan for Solid Waste Management. Keywords: urbanisation, population, solid waste management, citizens, sustainable environment. 1 Introduction Malaysia is now at the mid-point of its journey towards becoming a developed country by 2020.

  • History of Kajang – Museum Volunteers, JMM
    History of Kajang – Museum Volunteers, JMM https://museumvolunteersjmm.com/2020/07/15/history-of-kajang/ Museum Volunteers, JMM Taking the Mystery out of History History of Kajang by Eric Lim Kajang, the capital of the Hulu Langat district, is located around 21 km south from Kuala Lumpur. There are a number of theories on how the name Kajang came about. The Malay dictionary de�nes kajang as ‘stu�ed objects from leaves of nipah (bamboo, mengkuang or palm leaves) that are used as rooftop or awning’. The Temuan had already been exploring the area since at least the 16th century and they found an abundance of bamboo and palm leaves, which they folded to make rooftops. Thus, they called the place Kajang. Two other theories date from the time of the Austronesian migration. We look at the word as used by two di�erent ethnic groups –for the Mandailing, berkajang means ‘to take shelter’; and for the Bugis, it means ‘to stab / to �ght’. Raja Alang, a Mandailing, was cruising along the Langat River with his followers when half way they decided to stop and berkajang. He then called the place Kajang. The Mandailing and Bugis were trying to escape from the Selangor Civil War and both arrived near Kajang. They then fought each other because of the misunderstanding of the meaning of the word to them. After the event, the place was called Kajang. 1 of 15 14/8/2020, 12:37 pm History of Kajang – Museum Volunteers, JMM https://museumvolunteersjmm.com/2020/07/15/history-of-kajang/ In 1848, Raja Berayun, a Mandailing, wanted to claim ‘blood money’ from Datoh Klana Sendeng, a Rawa, for the killing of one of his friends.
