Generally, the proportion of alkyl C would increase and O-alkyl C de- crease with decreasing particle-size [21]. Little is known about changes in structural compo- sition of OM in particle-size-fractions of soils along a climo-biosequence. Examining soils within a mountain range is considered as a common form of climosequence and/or climo-biosequence [3]. The Main Range of Penin- sular Malaysia, the backbone mountain range located in the center of the peninsula, extends northward into the Peninsular Thailand and southward to the Indonesian tin islands [22]. Gradients of soil forming factors such as cli- mate and vegetation on fairly uniform parent material in the Main Range [23] enables us to investigate such alter- ations in structural composition of OM. The research ques- tion is whether changes in structural composition of OM in particle-size fractions of soils along a climo-biosequence can be ascribed to dierences in climate and vegetation or Figure 1: Map of the study area showing the location of the investi- pedogenesis as a function of the two variables.

    LALUAN CSR RAUB-BENTONG JANGKA DIBUKA MASA TERDEKAT BENTONG, 24 APRIL 2021: Laluan Raub ke Bentong, Projek Lebuhraya Central Spine Road (CSR) sepanjang 34 kilometer (km) dijangka akan dapat dibuka kepada orang ramai dalam masa terdekat. Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Kerja Raya, Pengangkutan dan Kesihatan Negeri Pahang, YB. Dato’ Sri Norolazali Sulaiman berkata, namun pembukaan itu tertakluk kepada beberapa perkara teknikal berkaitan. “Jadi kita harapkan jajaran ini boleh disiapkan segera dan kita jangka boleh dibuka dalam masa terdekat ini. Saya harap sebelum sambutan Hari Raya Aidilfitri boleh dibuka. “Cadangan untuk kita buka jalan ini adalah daripada persimpangan Bentong ke persimpangan FELDA Mempaga dan keluar di simpang Kampung Keruntum berhampiran FELDA Lurah Bilut dan selepas itu akan keluar balik ikut jalan lama. “Kiranya pengguna yang nak ke Kelantan atau Raub atau Lipis akan masuk dari persimpangan Lebuhraya Pantai Timur (LPT), kemudian keluar di persimpangan Jalan Utama Mempaga (FT1498) dan masuk masuk balik ke Jalan Kuala Lumpur - Gua Musang (FT08) di Kampung Asap sebelum FELDA Lurah Bilut, tidak melalui bandar Bentong,” katanya. Beliau berkata demikian ketika ditemui selepas Program Lawatan Kerja Ke Projek Central Spine Road (CSR) Pakej 5 : Raub ke Bentong, di sini baru-baru ini. Beliau berkata, pembukaan laluan sepanjang 34 kilometer (km) ini dijangka dapat memberi manfaat kepada pengguna jalan dengan mengurangkan masa perjalanan mereka. “Seperti yang kita tahu, jalan Bentong ini bila trafik sesak, pengguna boleh tersangkut sampai berjam lamanya terutamanya bila musim perayaan. “Kita harap dengan pembukaan pakej 5C dan 5D ini dapat memberi pilihan alternatif kepada orang ramai untuk perjalanan mereka lebih cepat dan selesa,” katanya. Laluan CSR bagi laluan Raub ke Bentong ini sepanjang 54 km keseluruhan adalah merupakan sebahagian daripada enam pakej CSR yang menghubungkan Kuala Krai, Kelantan dan Simpang Pelangai, Kuala Lipis sepanjang 350km.

  • 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.

  • 2 Geology of Peninsular Malaysia
    2 GEOLOGY OF PENINSULAR MALAYSIA 2.1 INTRODUCTION Peninsular Malaysia has traditionLlly been subdivided into NNW-SSE longitudinal belts on the basis of stratigraphy, mineralisation, geological structure, geological history and tectonic evolution . Scrivenor (19:;8) subdivided the Peninsula into three elongate belts on the basis of mineralisation: a western tin belt, a central gold belt and an eastern tin belt. Hutchison (1977) divided the Peni isula into four major tectonic subdivisions on the basis of different tectonic histories; the '1Vestern Stable Shelf, the Main Range Belt, the Central graben, and the Eastern Belt. Fo ) (1983) divided the Peninsula into four zones on the basis of differences in stratign phy. Khoo and Tan (1983) proposed a threefold subdivision; a Western Belt, Central Belt and an Eastern Belt on the basis of differences in stratigraphy and geological histoi y within Peninsular Malaysia. Within this threefold subdivision, Khoo and Tan (1983' further divided the Western Belt into two regions: a northwest sector and a Kinta-Ma acca sector. Tjia and Harun (1985) recognised four structural domains within the Peninsula. They defined Northwest, West, Central and Eastern structural domains. Within all the above subdivision schemes, the boundary between the eastern and central "belts" is taken as the Lebir Fault 2 one, and the boundary between the central and western "belts" is the Bentong-Raub line of Hutchison (1975). As previously stated (Chapter 1.5.2), Metcalfe (1988) proposed that Peninsular Malaysia consisted of two continental terra les, a western Gondwanan affinity continental terrane (Sibumasu) and an eastern Cathaysian affinity continental terrane (Indochina/East Malaya) Chapter 2: Geology of Peninsular Malaysia (Fig.

  • Study on Groundwater Potential As Alternative Water Supply in Kuantan and Bentong, Pa}{Ang Mohd Salamu] Din Bin Ab Salam @ Nawi
    STUDY ON GROUNDWATER POTENTIAL AS ALTERNATIVE WATER SUPPLY IN KUANTAN AND BENTONG, PA}{ANG MOHD SALAMU] DIN BIN AB SALAM @ NAWI A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the award of the degree of Bachelor of Civil Engineering Faculty of Civil Engineering & Earth Resources Universiti Malaysia Pahang NOVEMBER 2010 V ABSTRACT The knowledge of groundwater resource in Pahang is low compared to the other state because Pahang received a large amount of rainfall each year which are between 2032 mm to 2540 mm. Consequently, the demand for groundwater is very low. Despite this, development of groundwater needs to be done to supply water to the public demand and to avoid the lack of water in the dry season. Aware of this fact, two areas in Pahang which are Kuantan and Bentong were selected as study areas. The study involved analysis of data pumping test collected from Mineralogy and Geoscience Department Pahang. The type of aquifer of both places is unconfined aquifer. In this study, Mineralogy and Geoscience Department have provided sufficient data for the analysis of this aquifer. The data collected are constant rate pumping test data, recovery pumping test data and step pumping test data. The study has found that, both of study areas have different geology which Kuantan is sand and gravel while Bentong is rock. Hydraulic conductivity, K for Kuantan is in region 700m/day to 2500m/day and Bentong is in reion im/day to 3 rn/day. Tranmissivity, T of aquifer in Kuantan is in region 3000 in /day to 9000 m2/day and Bentong is in region 4 m2/day to 12m2/day.

Both series were founded by Dr. Bryant Walker, Mr. Bradshaw H. Swales, and Dr. W.W. Newcomb. Occasion- ally the Museum publishes contributions outside of these series; beginning in 1990 these are titled Special Publications and are numbered. All submitted manuscripts receive external re- view. The Occasional Papers, publication of which was begun in 1913, serve as a medium for original studies based principally upon the collections in the Museum. They are issued sepa- rately. When a sufficient number of pages has been printed to make a volume, a title page, table of lontents, and an index are supplied to libraries and individuals on the mailing list for the series. The Miscellaneous Publications, which include monographic studies, papers on field and museum techniques, and other contributions not within the scope of the Occasional Papers, are published separately. It is not intended that they be grouped into volumes. Each number has a title page and, when necessary, a table of contents. A complete list of publications on Birds, Fishes, Insects, Mammals, Mollusks, Reptiles and Amphibians, and other topics is available.
