Category In The Peninsula Liquefied Petroleum 37 Gas (LPG) Prices In The Peninsula Natural Gas Prices in 37 Sabah and Labuan 1.0 BACKGROUND PIPED GAS DISTRIBUTION INDUSTRY STATISTICS 2016 8 GAS SUPPLY ACT 1993 The government introduced the Gas Supply Act 1993 (Act 501) and Gas Supply Regulations 1997 to regulate piped gas supply and utilisation activities. The main objective is to protect the interests of the consumers and the public who are affected by the supply activities whilst at the same time ensuring continued viability of the gas supply businesses. Act 501 prescribes the administrative and technical standards in the aspects of safety, reliability, economy, efficiency and quality. In Act 501 gas is defined as methane, ethane, propane, butane or hydrocarbons which may consist of one or more of the above gases in the form of gas or liquid. Natural gas is mainly methane with a small percentage of other hydrocarbons and non-hydrocarbon gases whereas Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) comprises of mainly propane and butane. Other types of gases, such as oxygen, nitrogen and acetylene used in the industrial sector are not covered by Act 501. The act is not applicable throughout the gas supply chain. Its scope covers only the supply of natural gas through pipeline downstream of the last flange of the city gate station or the supply of LPG from the filling point of storage tanks or cylinders to gas appliances. Natural gas transmission and lateral pipeline systems (up to and including the city gate stations) are outside the scope of Act 501. Presently, Act 501 is only applicable in the Peninsula and Sabah. FUNCTIONS OF THE ENERGY COMMISSION UNDER ACT 501 a) To ensure a licensee satisfies all reasonable demands for gas through pipelines. b) To ensure a licensee could finance the provision of gas supply services. c) To protect the interests of consumers of gas supplied through pipelines in respect of i. The prices charged and the other terms of supply. ii. The continuity of supply. iii. The quality of the gas supply services provided. d) To regulate the composition, pressure, purity and volume of gas supplied through pipelines. e) To promote efficiency and economy to supply gas through pipelines and the efficient use of gas supplied through pipelines. f) To protect the public from dangers arising from the distribution of gas through pipelines or from the use of gas supplied through pipelines. g) To enable persons to compete effectively in the supply of gas through pipelines. h) To investigate any accident or fire involving any gas pipeline or installation.

  • 6 Fire Rescue Divers Killed in the Line of Duty During Water Rescue
    10-03-2018 – Malaysia - 6 FIRE RESCUE DIVERS KILLED – FF PSD 6 Fire Rescue Divers Killed In The Line Of Duty During Water Rescue https://www.firefighterclosecalls.com/6-fire-rescue-divers-killed-in-the-line-of-duty-during-water-rescue/ October 4, 2018 We regret to pass on that 6 fire and rescue department divers in Malaysia died in the Line of Duty. This occurred during a rescue operation for a teenager who is feared to have drowned after falling into a mining pond on Wednesday (Oct 3). The divers were caught in a strong “whirlpool” during the operation in Puchong, a town on the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur. It was drizzling when the divers went into the pond at 2115 hours to rescue the 17- year-old boy. The team had followed standard operating procedures in donning complete diving equipment and were tied to a single rope. PSDiver Magazine www.PSDiver.com Page 1 10-03-2018 – Malaysia - 6 FIRE RESCUE DIVERS KILLED – FF PSD Suddenly a violent current/whirlpool occurred in the water, causing all the fire rescue divers to spin in the water while all their equipment came off. The divers struggled in the water for about 30 minutes while other fire rescue members tried to rescue them. All of them were unconscious when they were eventually pulled out of the water. All life saving measures were attempted, but unsuccessful.

MARDI July 2000 Chairman: Dr. Suleyman Aremu Muyibi Faculty: Engineering The aim of this study is to predict the Iong·term behaviour of the Klang River estuary in terms of changes in the river morphology due to tidal effect that will help plan the industrial and commercial activities within the estuaries. The main objectives were to simulate the tidal effect on channel geometry, and the flow (water level) by using a mathematical modelling of finite difference approach (MIKE 11) as well as analysis of available data. The input data for MIKE 11 was the tide water level at port Klang and the probable discharge at Kota Bridge for ARIlOO, 70,50,10 from previous report and the cross section for 1993 survey. Changes in river morphology were evaluated by dividing Klang River estuary into five sections based on the available data for the cross section throughout the year.

Southeast Asian Studies From A Capital City to A World City: Vision 2020, Multimedia Super Corridor and Kuala Lumpur (121pp.) Advisor of Thesis: Yeong-Hyun Kim In 1991, the former Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad introduced an initiative called Vision 2020, designed to bring Malaysia to a developed country status, and this initiative will eventually support Kuala Lumpur’s position to become a world city. This thesis examines the recent urban restructuring of Kuala Lumpur in terms of the Malaysian government’s current aspiration for world city status. Many capital cities in the developing world have been undergoing various world city projects that aim at, among other things, improving their international visibility, advancing urban infrastructures and promoting economic competitiveness in a global world economy. This thesis focuses on four large-scale constructions in the Multimedia Super Corridor, namely, the Kuala Lumpur City Center, Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Putrajaya and Cyberjaya.
