  • MALAYSIA the Kampung Kuantan Firefly Reserve Jamil Bin
    MALAYSIA The Kampung Kuantan Firefly Reserve Jamil bin Hamzah and Suzana Mohkeri Wetlands International-Asia Pacific INTRODUCTION Malaysia is comprised of 13 federal states with Kuala Lumpur as the federal capital situated in the Federal Territory. Eleven states are in West Malaysia (also known as Peninsular Malaysia) and two states are situated in Borneo Island. Selangor is one of the most highly developed and urbanized states in Malaysia. However, there are still large areas of forested lands scattered throughout the state either under forest reserves, owned by the state, private companies or private landowners. Since the beginning of civilization rivers have been the most important source of food, water resources and transportation. In Malaysia, human settlement always related or concentrated along the rivers. Sungai Selangor (Selangor River), is one of the main rivers in the state of Selangor. The headwater of Sungai Selangor originates from the highland area of the Titiwangsa Range, which is part of the Main Range, the backbone of Peninsular Malaysia. It is an important source of water supply for domestic and agriculture use and fishing industries for people living along the riverbanks. Sungai Selangor flows mainly through oil palm estates and small villages and it does not pass through any major towns. Thus the riparian vegetation along the riverbanks is still intact. According to a report prepared by the Department of Environment, Sungai Selangor river basin is listed as one of the two cleanest rivers in Selangor (Environmental Quality Report, 1996). This river is highlighted here not because of its important food and water resources but of its ecotourism factor.

  • Sedimentary Sequence in the Subsurface of the Pekan Coastal Plain, Pahang
    Geological Society of Malaysia Annual Geological Conference 2002 May 26 - 27, Kota Bharu, Kelantan, Malaysia Sedimentary sequence in the subsurface of the Pekan coastal plain, Pahang CHE AzIzALI Program Geologi, Fakulti Sains dan Teknologi Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, 43600 Bangi, Selangor Abstract: The Pekan coastal plain in which the Pahang river delta is located is made up of a thick sequence of unconsolidated sedimentary sequence of an unnamed formation. Drilling programmes carried out in the area show that the unconsolidated sequence was deposited during two major periods of sedimentation that took place in two different setting. The lower sequence which has been interpreted to have been deposited during the Pleistocene period consists of entirely continental sediment. The continental sequence can be devided into several packages according to their depositional trends and the boundary of each package is marked by an apparent depositional break. The sea-level rise during the early Holocene period have resulted in deposition of a series of marinel marine-influenc~d sediments at the top of the sequence. Abstrak: Dataran pantai Pekan yang di dalamnya terletak delta Sungai Pahang dibentuk oleh satu jujukan sedimen takterkonsolidasi yang tebal yang setakat ini tidak begitu jelas nama formasinya. Program penggerudian yang dilakukan di kawasan tersebut menunjukkan bahawa sedimen takterkonsolidasi tersebut telah dimendapkan pada period yang berlainan dan berlaku di dalam setting yang berbeza. Jujukan bawah yang telah ditafsirkan· telah dimendapkan semasa Pleistosen terdiri daripada sedimen daratan. Jujukan sedimen daratan tersebut boleh dibahagikan kepada dua pakej pemendapan yang setiap satunya di pisahkan dari pada yang lain oleh rumpang pemendapan. Peningkatan paras laut semasa awal Holosen telah mengakibatkan pemendapan satu siri sedimen lautanldipengaruhi lautan di abahagian atas jujukan.

  • A Case Study in the Cameron Highlands, Malaysia
    Geographical Review of Japan Vol. 61 (Ser. B), No. 2, 191-211, 1988 The Agricultural Development of Hill Stations in Tropical Asia -A Case Study in the Cameron Highlands, Malaysia- Shigeru SHIRASAKA* There are many highland settlements known as "hill stations" or "summer resorts" in Southeast Asian countries under the tropical and subtropical climate. The hill station is not a native institution, but one developed during the nineteenth century by the British and Dutch colonial masters in order to make sojourns in a foreign land more comfortable. In southern Japan, the worst period is from June through August, though its intensity does not compare with that farther south. In Malaysia and Indonesia, the period extends throughout the year. The Cameron Highlands is the most famous hill station in Peninsular Malaysia being one of colonial origin. The Cameron Highlands is located between 1,000 and 1,500 meters above sea level on the main range of central Malaysia. Today, the Cameron Highlands is mainly a summer resort, but it is also a very important mid-latitude vegetable growing area. The development of the Cameron Highlands began only after 1926, though it was discovered by, and named after, William CAMERONin 1885. Almost simultaneous with the opening of the Came ron Highlands as a hill resort was the growth and development of vegetable farming by farmers of Chinese origin. There are also three new vegetable farming settlements developed after World War II. Some 47 per cent of the inhabitants of the Cameron Highlands are Chinese Malaysian, and they shoulder the vegetable growing business.

  • The Potential of Geopark in Kenong, Kuala Lipis, Malaysia
    THE POTENTIAL OF GEOPARK IN KENONG, KUALA LIPIS, MALAYSIA Noor Izzan Nordin, Civil Engineering Department, Politeknik Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah E-mail: [email protected] Zuraini Din, Civil Engineering Department, Politeknik Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah E-mail: [email protected] Noriza Mat Hashim Civil Engineering Department, Politeknik Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah E-mail: [email protected] Abstract National Geoparks create awareness of the importance of geological processes for the development of the earth’s surface, the distribution of natural resources. Nowadays, growing public awareness of the necessity for the conservation and protection of geological and geomorphological features and play an important role in our ecosystem. This study is to propose Kenong as a future of Geoparks. The objectives of study are to promote geological heritage to the public as well as to support sustainable economic development of the area through the development of geological tourism. Qualitative methods are use in collecting data and the instrument used is observations. The main findings are Geofeatures inventory and issues, concerns and opportunities based on the parameter. Kenong has the characteristics which are a Geopark has to encompass a particular geological heritage, with specific geological and geomorphological features. Both of them are important in terms of their scientific quality, rarity, aesthetic appeal or educational value. Keywords: Geopark, Heritage, Geoscience education, Sustainable development 1. Introduction A Geopark location contains a few geologically or geomorphological features. This location is a unified area that advances the protection and use of geological heritage in a sustainable way and also promotes the economic well-being of the people who live there.
