  • Mapping of Graveyard Location of the Sultans of State of Perak Aided by ICT Applications
    7th International Seminar on ECOLOGY, HUMAN HABITAT AND ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE IN THE MALAY WORLD Pekanbaru, Riau, INDONESIA, 19-20 August 2014 Mapping of Graveyard Location of The Sultans of State of Perak Aided by ICT Applications Mohd Rohaizat Abdul Wahab1, Ahmad Helmi Mohd Mokhtar1, Muhamad Shafiq Mohd Ali1, Nik Hassan Shuhaimi Nik Abdul Rahman1, Zuliskandar Ramli1, Ros Mahwati Ahmad Zakaria1, Norlelawaty Haron1 & Hasnira Hassan1 1) Institute of the Malay World and Civilisation, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia [email protected] ABSTRACT The Sultan of Perak was the heir of Sultan of Malacca after Perak State was ruled by Sultan Muzaffar who was the son of Sultan Mahmud Shah. The administration of Sultan of Perak grew along Sungai Perak and this can be seen from the tombs located along the Perak River basin from the Lower Perak River to Kuala Kangsar. Due to modernization and environmental changes, most of the graveyards are located at remote places and are difficult to access. This study was conducted to solve the problem of looking for the graveyards’ location by using ICT applications. This paper also discusses the application and procedure for mapping of the point of the graveyards’ coordinates for the tomb sites which were visited during the conduct of this study. The findings of this study will help the heirs of the Sultanate of Perak, the local authorities and the public to find and access the late Sultans of Perak’s graveyards easily and systematically. Keywords: graveyards, Sultan of Perak, coordinates, ICT INTRODUCTION Makam or tombs are the burial sites for the dead and in Malaysia, makam is defined as tombs or mausoleums for royal families and venerated people such as leaders and warriors.

  • The Spatial Configuration of Private Investments by Economic Actors in Perak
    The spatial configuration of private investments by economic actors in Perak A consideration of centricity of the regional urban system of Southern Perak (Peninsular Malaysia) Luka Raaijmakers (6314554) Under supervision of dr Leo van Grunsven Faculty of Geosciences Department of Human Geography and Planning Master’s degree in Economic Geography Specialisation in Regional Development & Policy November 2019 Page | 2 Acknowledgements This thesis is part of the joint research project on regional urban dynamics in Southern Perak (Peninsular Malaysia). The project is a collaboration between Utrecht University (The Netherlands) and Think City Sdn Bhd (Malaysia), under supervision of dr Leo van Grunsven and Matt Benson. I would like to thank dr Leo van Grunsven for his advice related to scientific subjects and his efforts to make us feel at home in Malaysia. Also, I would like to thank Matt Benson and Joel Goh and the other colleagues of Think City for the assistance in conducting research in – for me – uncharted territory. I would like to address other words of thanks to the Malaysian Investment Development Authority, Institut Darul Ridzuan and all other political bodies that have proven to be valuable as well as economic actors for their honesty and openness with regard to doing business in Malaysia/Perak. Finally, the fun part of writing a master’s thesis in Malaysia, apart from obviously living abroad on a vibrant island, was the part of doing research. This required a little creativity, some resilience and even more perseverance. This could not have been done without the other student members of the research team that took part in the collective effort of unravelling the urban system of Perak by using the knowledge we have gained in our years as academics.

However, he died at a young age, leaving an heir and legacy of the enormous ruling power. Its main enemy, both in the military and in trade, is the European power in the Straits of Malacca. The Ruler of Aceh, after his death, had to deal with the Dutch colonialists who are interested in tin mining in the state of Perak in the Malay Peninsula. Perak, at the time, was under the auspices of Aceh. The main goal of this paper is to review the role and authority of the ruler of Aceh and Perak when dealing with a Dutch ploy to monopolize the quarry.
