Hj Ahmad Suhaimi Ismail (245/91) © 2017 by MIP iv PREFACE Issues and Challenges of Urban Settlements in Malaysia The urban planning system seeks to guide appropriate development to the right place and to prevent inappropriate development from taking place aiming at securing sustainable development. However, rapid urban growth due to high fertility and rural-urban migration have exerted pressure on the environment of urban settlements. Urban settlements in developing countries, especially, are facing increasing issues and challenges in various aspects, i.e. physical, social and economic. In Malaysia, various researches and studies have been carried out to understand the issues and challenges of urban settlements in the country. This issue of Planning Malaysia aims to share findings of researches/studies in various aspects of urban settlement and planning in Malaysia. It covers the aspects of globalization and urban planning, urban forms, finance, housing, social, agro-tourism, recreation, urban spaces, transportation, and heritage. The authors of paper 1 suggest that neoliberal globalization certainly gives rise for enabling urban settlements as can be seen in the area of Kuala Lumpur and Selangor. However, the process brings further challenges to the Malaysian planning system such as social injustice and environmental deterioration. In paper 2, the study on urban sprawl has found that cost of development is higher when built further away from service centres. The substantial infrastructure costs savings can be achieved by increasing urban densities and locating new development near existing built-up areas. In paper 3, the authors highlighted the efforts by the government to eradicate squatters and providing low-cost housing in Malaysia. However, the existing policies and programs have yet to meet the target of “zero squatter”. For social-related issues, paper 4 concludes that most of the local respondents from one of the medium cost apartments felt that the presence of foreign immigrants negatively affecting them in terms of family and community relationship, sense of belonging, safety and housing price/cost. In paper 5, the authors discuss several negative and positive impacts on locals due to the presence of foreign immigrants in agro-tourism industry in Cameron Highland. In terms of recreational planning in urban settlements, paper 6 shows that recreational facilities in urban areas can give satisfaction to youths. It covers the aspects of the current state of the facilities, proximity, accessibility and level of maintenance. Meanwhile, paper 7 indicates that the nature and human interactions require elements of open spaces such as green spaces, water elements, and physical attributes to enhance the human-human and human-nature interactions. For the aspect of transportation, paper 8 found that majority of respondents were not ready to consider cycling or walking as an alternative mode of travel. Besides, respondents who use their cars more frequently have lower level of willingness to use public transport. Further, the authors of paper 9 also found that majority of respondents did

  • Validity and Reliability of Health Belief Model Questionnaire for Promoting
    DOI:10.31557/APJCP.2019.20.9.2865 HBM Questionnaire for Promoting Breast Self-Examination and Screening Mammogram RESEARCH ARTICLE Editorial Process: Submission:08/07/2019 Acceptance:09/13/2019 Validity and Reliability of Health Belief Model Questionnaire for Promoting Breast Self-Examination and Screening Mammogram for Early Cancer Detection Norfariha Che Mohamed1, Soo-Foon Moey1*, Bee-Chiu Lim2 Abstract Background: Early detection of breast cancer is essential in improving overall women’s health. The researchers sought to develop a comprehensive measure that combined the basic components of the health belief model (HBM) with a focus on breast self-examination (BSE) and screening mammogram amongst women. Methods: Questionnaire items were developed following a review of relevant literature of HBM on BSE and screening mammogram. The sampling frame for the study was Malaysian women aged 35 to 70 years old, living in Kuantan, Pahang and able to read or write in Bahasa Malaysia or English. As such, 103 women were randomly selected to participate in the study. Tests of validity using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and reliability were subsequently performed to determine the psychometric properties of the questionnaire. Results: The EFA revealed nine factors (self-efficacy of mammogram, perceived barriers of BSE and mammogram, perceived susceptibility of breast cancer, perceived severity of breast cancer, cues to action for mammogram screening, perceived benefits of BSE, health motivation, perceived benefits of mammogram and self-efficacy of BSE) containing 54 items that jointly accounted for 74.2% of the observed variance. All nine factors have good internal consistency with Cronbach’s alpha ≥ 0.8.

  • 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.

Hambatan dan jerit payah yang terpaksa dilalui pejuang Umno dirakamkan dalam buku ini bagi membolehkan generasi muda berkongsi pengalaman dan menghayati erti pengorbanan. Semua orang Melayu di Malaysia biar bagaimana pendirian politik mereka, terpaksa mengakui hakikat Umno yang menjadi tonggak kepada usaha penyatuan bangsa Melayu bagi mengusir penjajah keluar dari Tanah Melayu. Selain itu, tidak boleh dinafikan Umno juga adalah perintis usaha pembaikan dan pembinaan bangsa yang selama ini diperkotak-katikkan tangan asing. Tokoh yang ditampilkan dalam buku berkenaan ialah Datuk Onn Ja'afar, Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra al-Haj, Tun Abdul Razak Hussein, Tun Hussein Onn, Datuk Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad, Tun Dr Ismail Abd Rahman, Tan Sri Musa Hitam, Tun Abdul Ghafar Baba, Tan Sri Senu Abd Rahman dan Tun Sardon Jubir.

Journal of Tourism, Hospitality and Environment Management, 3 (12), 01-10. __________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract: The main objective of this paper is to inspect whether is there any short run or long run causal relationship between tourism, gross domestic product (GDP) and CO2 emissions in Malaysia. The study in this field in Malaysia is in a state of paucity. This paper studied the data of three variables from 1980 to 2014. Tests performed are Granger causality test, Johansen co-integration test and Vector Error Correction Model (VECM). The result showed all three variables have unidirectional causality. Tourism affects GDP at the same time affect CO2. Due to the fact that there is the one-way causal relationship of the GDP towards CO2 emissions, the policymaker is greatly encouraged to enforce the law and regulations to minimize the negative externalities of CO2 emissions towards the climate change and environmental issues. Keywords: Tourism, Economic Growth, CO2 Emissions, Malaysia __________________________________________________________________________________________ Introduction Malaysia, a parliamentary democracy system South-East Asia country has current population of 31.6 million and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of RM1229 billion (Department of Statistics Malaysia, 2017).
