  • 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.

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.

  • Socio Economy Gap Analysis of Local Communities in District of Bentong, Pahang
    International Journal of Academic Research in Economics and Management Sciences 2016, Vol. 5, No. 3 ISSN: 2226-3624 Socio Economy Gap Analysis of Local Communities in District of Bentong, Pahang Kamal Kenny, PhD El Sheila Kanavathi DOI: 10.6007/IJAREMS/v5-i3/2247 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.6007/IJAREMS/v5-i3/2247 Abstract: Over the years, the infusion of private and public entity roles in the context of the socio-economic development of Malaysia is deemed viable as reinforced by the need to address the socio-economic gaps and demands of the local community. These undertakings will more likely provide several important ideas that would suffice related and relevant literatures, which will be used for the creation of better socio-economic growth in Malaysia. The passage from under-development to development means that several inter-related processes occur simultaneously. In an economic sense, development entails the transformation of simple subsistence economies into complex monetary economies. In the process, an increase in the proportion of products that is sold or exchanged and a decline in the proportion of consumption may take place concurrently. The study was carried out to determine the socio- economic demands and gaps of the local population and suggest assistance and interventions required. The overall results of this study reveal the challenges faced at the community level in the District of Bentong in the context of social and economy. This study was carried out via a structured survey throughout the district involving 300 respondents and also complemented with a Focus Group Discussion carried out with key stakeholders.

  • The Truth Is out There
    PRESS RELEASE THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia: On Easter Sunday, March 26, 1967, American entrepreneur Jim Thompson set out from the Moonlight Cottage in Cameron Highlands for a mid-afternoon stroll in the jungle and was never seen again. At that point, the Thai Silk King stepped out of myth into legend as stories and hypotheses on his disappearance remain mysteries. Cameron Highlands Resort presents The Jim Thompson Mystery Trail to its guests as an ode to Jim Thompson whose keen eye for beauty was not only confined to silk and ancient architecture, but also his love of nature and walking off the beaten track. The Jim Thompson Mystery Trail is a delightful trail for nature lovers and bird-watching enthusiasts with White-throated Fantails, several Bulbul and Sunbird species being commonly encountered in this region. Led by our resident naturalist, guests will be able to discover the many species of flora, fauna, fungi and insects that the verdant Cameron Highlands jungle is renowned for. A relatively gentle trek for all ages, the fascinating walk lasts approximately two hours and showcases the biological diversity such as delicate wild orchids, vibrant rhododendrons, pitcher and lipstick plants that are unique to this mountain habitat.

AMINUDDIN1,∗,M.H.GHULAM1,W.Y.WAN ABDULLAH2, M. ZULKEFLI1 and R. B. SALAMA3 1Strategic, Environment and Natural Resources Research Centre, MARDI, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; 2MARDI Research Station Cameron Highlands, Tanah Rata, Pahang, Malaysia; 3CSIRO Land and Water, PO WEMBLEY, Western Australia 6913 (∗author for correspondence, e-mail: [email protected]; phone: +60 3 8943 1439; fax: +60 3 8941 1499) Abstract. Cameron Highlands is a mountainous region with steep slopes. Gradients exceeding 20◦ are common. The climate is favourable to the cultivation of tea, sub-tropical vegetables and flowers (under rain-shelter). Crop production is sustained by high fertiliser and manure applications. However, agriculture in this environment is characterised by high levels of soil erosion and environmental pollution. A study on the sustainability of these agro-ecosystems was conducted. Results indicated that soil loss was in the range of 24–42 ton/ha/yr under vegetables and 1.3 ton under rain-shelter. Sediment load in the vegetable sub-catchment reached 3.5 g/L, 50 times higher than that associated with flowers under rain-shelter and tea. The sediments contained high nutrient loads of up to 470 kg N/ha/yr. The N, P and K lost in runoff from cabbage farms was 154 kg/season/ha, whereas in chrysanthemum farms it was 5 kg. In cabbage farms, the N, P, and K lost through leaching was 193 kg/season/ha.
