Under the so called Perak Amanjaya Development Plan, some of the things that we have tried to do are the same things that I believe many others here are concerned about: first, balanced development and economic distribution between the urban and rural areas by focusing on developing small towns; second, poverty eradication regardless of race or religion so that no one remains on the fringes of society or is left behind economically; and, third, youth empowerment. Under the first one, the state identifies viable small- and medium-size companies which can operate from small towns. These companies are to be working closely with the state government to boost the economy of the respective areas.

Previous experiences have recorded that the phenomena will cause a problem to the freshwater aquifer due to its salinity contamination. Conventional approach on saltwater detection also suffers from efficiency in term of cost, time and data coverage. Hence, this study has introduced an electrical resistivity imaging (ERI) for saltwater intrusion mapping based on time lapse condition. Data acquisition and processing of ERI was performed using ABEM SAS 4000 and RES2DINV software.
