者美金进行兑换，或携带信用卡或银联卡可以在当地ATM机（机场及大的旅游景点和商 场有）直接取出马来西亚令吉，汇率是当天国际汇率，手续费取决于您银行卡所属银行的 规定（请使用前向您的银行进行确认）。1元人民币大约相当于0.6马来西亚令吉。 2. 时差 马来西亚时间比格林威治标准时间（GMT）早8小时，比美国太平洋标准时间早16小 时，北京时间没有时差。 3. 气候 马来西亚属于热带雨林气候，平均气温为26-29摄氏度，全年温差较小。大部分地区的 10-12月为雨季，6-7月旱季。 马来西亚东岸的11－1月是雨季，请参与者自备雨具。 4. 问候方式 当您问候穆斯林朋友时，请伸出右手，然后把指尖朝自己的心脏处轻轻触碰。 这是传统 的问候方式。印度传统的问候方式为双手合十，并说出 Namaste（印度语）或 Vanakkam（泰米尔语）。和男性问候时可以握手，但对女性则不宜。除非是女方主动以 握手来问候。 2 Malaysia Guide Book GAPPER 5. 电话卡 对网络要求较高和有通话需求的 Gapper 们，可以抵达后在当地机场或市区内购买电话 卡（Digi or Hotlink），或在国内手机开通国际漫游。 Gapper 的住宿地点提供免费 Wifi，但是如果志愿者要在外旅游，电话卡可以开通流量服务。 6. 出行准备 þ日常生活和洗漱用品（如牙刷、毛巾、拖鞋、衣物等）。沐浴乳和洗发水等比较重的用 品，可以自行携带，也可以抵达马来西亚后购买。当地经济条件有限,建议对品牌和品质 要求较高的参与者自行携带。 þ雨伞（用于雨季期间参与项目者） þ防蚊喷雾（可在当地购买） þ防晒霜 þ吹风机 （如果需要） þ晾衣架（如果需要）， 也可在当地超市购买 þ手电 þ电子设备充电器、转换插头（英标）和插盘（如果需要）。电流供应是240瓦特50转的 系统。 þ薄外套 þ长袖衣裤。在项目期间需要穿及膝裙子或者裤子，上衣需要盖住肩膀。其他时间的游 玩，对衣物没有要求。女士在进入清真寺和寺庙时，建议穿上长袖衣服和宽松的裤子或长 裙。 3 Malaysia Guide Book GAPPER þ短袖衣裤。 þ日常药品（用于身体状况欠佳者）。 þ用于打发空闲时间的书籍。 þ现金。具体金额志愿者可根据自身的情况而定。志愿者可携带美金或者人民币到当地兑 换马来西亚令吉。 þ信用卡 (visa,master) 可以在当地部分取款机直接取出马来西亚令吉，汇率为当天国际 汇率。手续费请咨询您信用卡所在银行。 þ银联卡在部分商店可以使用。(项目结束自助游时可以使用) 7. 旅游小贴士 Ø 参观宗教场所时，请遵守所设规则。通常访客在进入参观前会被要求拖鞋，并穿着整 齐得体。 Ø 请使用右手接物或给予东西。根据马来人习俗，使用左手接物或给予东西会被视为不 礼貌。 Ø 请尽量不要使用食指指向东西。宜用右手折叠食指，以拇指代替首选手势。 Ø 女性到海滩不宜穿短裤或背心。袒胸进行日光浴是禁忌。马来女性通常去游泳会穿可 遮盖身体的衣服，有的还会戴上头巾。 Ø 勿在公众场合接吻。马来西亚的文化很注重公共行为，大多数马来西亚人避免过度显 示感情的行为，例如拥抱或当众接吻。 Ø 勿讨论有关种族或政治课题，以免引发敏感话题。 Ø 勿在公众场合饮酒。马来西亚拥有庞大穆斯林人口，根据穆斯林法律，教徒禁止饮 酒。 4 Malaysia Guide Book GAPPER Ø 在穆斯林斋月期间，不宜在马来人面前进食或喝饮料，以避免造成对方敏感和不适。 除了日落之后和日出之前，其余时间建议您私底下进食。 8. 当地民风 马来西亚民风纯朴，当地人非常友善。但是不管在哪里都请参与者有保护自己的意识。对 于随便上来搭讪的人要有一定的戒心，且不管是住宿地人员还是自行外出游玩碰到的人， 不要一味的不经过大脑的全盘相信他人所说的话，要有自己的独立判断能力。女生，请不 要天黑之后独自外出，早点回到住处休息。另外，在旅游区购买东西时可依据情况还价。 二.

Travel behaviour trend has increased drastically all over the world. With the present reality of climate change, the transportation studies are becoming increasingly important, in regards of travel behaviour changes. It is important to understand the need to change travel behaviour as one of the initiative to achieve sustainable transportation. In achieving transportation sustainability, understanding on travel behaviour and need can be more functional and useful for transportation planners to encourage people to use public transportations. In recent years, Low Carbon Society (LCS) concept has taken place to change the people’s lifestyles, especially to increase the use of public transportations. Undeniably, the only solution to a more sustainable transportation leading to a low carbon society is through a higher adoption rate of public transportation. However, it is still far to achieve as far as transportation planners are concerned because of the lack of understanding of the social needs to complement with public transportations.

As a consequence, the changes disturbed the quality of natural environment and ecosystem. Historical experience and prediction of future land use and land cover change is important to understand the spatial characteristics and environmental consequences of development area. Evaluating the spatiotemporal in urban development is essential as an important component improving adaptive management in landscape planning. Thus, the objective of this paper is to discuss the spatiotemporal land use and land cover change in major river basins (Sungai Tebrau, Sungai Skudai, Sungai Pulai and Coastal Zone) in the rapid development region of Iskandar Malaysia. The past experience indicates rapid growth of population and substantial urban development changed the spatial structure of the region and there is tremendous transformation of land use and land cover in the present due to high demand for development. Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP) and CA-markov chain model were used to analyze the relationship of variables and formulate the future spatial changes. Then landscape index is used to analyze the spatial characteristics of the changes. Remote sensing data and GIS were used to conduct the analysis for the study. Temporal satellite images between 2002 and 2013 were utilized as input data for the past changes and basis for future land use and land cover change projection (2020, 2025 and 2025).

The area was covered with kanji siris (mud) and gambut dalam (peat). Like the other tropical lowland, the land development there was left untouched until the time when the first pioneers settled along the riverbank of the area towards the end of the nineteenth century. The first part of this paper (Section II) mainly deals with macro-changes observed in the State of lohor in Malaysia and the vicinity of the studied area in order to give a general image for a frontier development. The latter part, Sections III, IV and V focuses on changes experienced by the people in the community mainly based on interviews, survey results and observations. Field work was conducted as part of the Team Research Project "Socio-Economic Changes and Cultural Transformations in Rural Malaysia. ,,1) Within this wide framework of research, I selected the research site according to the following three criteria: a community of small population size which I could handle individually; a community of Bugis descendants to which I could relate my past research experiences in South Sulawesi, Riau and Melaka.
