However, In press: 8 January 2016 since the Cenozoic, the Sunda Plate is mainly influenced by the western and Online: 1 April 2016 southern of the Sunda-Java Arc and Trench system, and the eastern side of Luzon Arc and Trench system which has an overall impact on the tectonic Keywords: and seismic activity of Sunda plate. Despite the increasing tectonic activities Arc and Trench System, of Sunda-Java Arc and Trench System, and of Luzon Arc and Trench Tectonic earthquake, Seismic System since the Quaternary, which cause many large and frequent zoning, GM(1,1)model, earthquakes. One particular big earthquake is the M9.0 one in Indian Ocean Seismic potential assessment in 2004, leading to more than two hundred and ninety thousand deaths or missing by the tsunami caused by the earthquake. As for Borneo island which is located in residual arc, the impact of tectonic earthquake is trivial; on the other hand, the Celebes Sea which belongs to the back-arc basin is influenced by the collision of small plates, North Sulawesi, which leads to two M≧7 earthquakes (1996 M7.9 and 1999 M7.1) in the 20th century. -

In order to get closer to the target, Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) aligned with solar PV, biogas and biomass energy sources must be evaluated and comprehended. Hybrid OTEC systems consisting of energy and water production are currently under research and validation. Therefore, for the construction of a commercial OTEC plant, 1 MW or 2.5 MW, the choice of a strategic location or potential site is vital. In this paper, oceanographic data such as seawater temperature, depth, salinity and dissolved oxygen obtained from the Japan Oceanographic Data Center (JODC) for Semporna, Tawau, Kudat, Pulau Layang- Layang and Pulau Kalumpang in Sabah, Malaysia, are reported. The RE available from the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) on the coast of Sabah was estimated based on the JODC data obtained. -

Sabah and Sarawak cover the northern coast of the island. The lower two‐thirds of Borneo is Kalimantan, which belongs to Indonesia. The area has a fascinating history, and probably because it is on one of the main trade routes through South East Asia, Borneo has had many masters. Sabah and Sarawak were incorporated into the Federation of Malaysia in 1963 and Malaysia is now regarded a safe and orderly Islamic country. Sabah has a diverse ethnic population of just over 3 million people with 32 recognised ethnic groups. The largest of these is the Malays (these include the many different cultural groups that originally existed in their own homeland within Sabah), Chinese and “non‐official immigrants” (mainly Filipino and Indonesian). In recent centuries piracy was common here, but it is now generally considered relatively safe for cruising. However, the nearby islands of Southern Philippines have had some problems with militant fundamentalist Muslim groups – there have been riots and violence on Mindanao and the Tawi Tawi Islands and isolated episodes of kidnapping of people from Sabah in the past 10 years or so. -

Solid Waste Generation and Composition at Water Villages in Sabah, Malaysia
Pol. J. Environ. Stud. Vol. 23, No. 5 (2014), 1475-1481 Original Research Solid Waste Generation and Composition at Water Villages in Sabah, Malaysia Fatma Sabariah Alias, Latifah Abd Manaf*, Sabrina J. Ho Abdullah, Mariani Ho Nyuk Onn @ Ariffin Faculty of Environmental Studies, Universiti Putra Malaysia, 43400 UPM Serdang, Selangor Darul Ehsan, Malaysia Received: 9 September 2013 Accepted: 14 January 2014 Abstract Life in an estuary and at the beach are unique settlement patterns in the history of Malaysia. Sabah is well known for its water village settlements that are built on wooden pillars and which can be found along Sabah coastal water. However, a lot of problems have occurred at the Sabah water villages. Thus, the aim of this study is to measure the solid waste generation and composition in 150 households at select water villages in Sabah, Malaysia. The study was conducted at three major towns in Sabah, namely Kampung Tanjung Batu Laut, Tawau water village, Kampung Tanjung Aru, Kota Kinabalu water village and Kampung Sim-sim, Sandakan water village. Based on the results, the total waste generation is 1519.30 kg and the average solid waste generation rate per household is 0.29 kg/person/day. The main component of solid waste is food waste, which comprises 37% of the total waste generated, followed by plastic waste at 31%, paper waste 14.7%, glass 7.2%, and metal 6.3%. The remainder (3.8%) includes bulky waste, furniture, wood, etc. Although the solid waste generation rate is comparatively low, it will create a negative impact on the environment and pub- lic health if proper management of solid waste is not practiced. -

Study on the Transportation System in the East Coast of Sabah
International Journal of Recent Technology and Engineering (IJRTE) ISSN: 2277-3878, Volume-9 Issue-4, November 2020 Study on the Transportation System in the East Coast of Sabah Mohd Azizul Bin Ladin, Fariq Ismeth Jaimin, Nazaruddin Abdul Taha, Lillian Gungat, Abdul Karim Mirasa, Sidah Binti Idris Abstract: Being situated in eastern Malaysia, Sabah is one of be divided into two areas, urban and rural. Within the urban the states which have a firm economic foundation through areas of Sabah, the road networks are better, and some types agriculture, forestry as well as petroleum industries. However, of public transportation, although unreliable, are available for even though it is rich with the natural resources that have long the public. However, like other urban road networks in the served for the country’s economic growth, as a whole, Sabah is considered a little behind her counterparts in the Peninsular world, it faces its main adversary, the road congestion. This Malaysia in terms of infrastructure and development. This study causes pollution and harm to the environment as well as the mainly examines the transportation network in Semporna, Tawau health of the citizens within the area. Moving on to the rural and Lahad Datu which is mostly in poor condition. This is side of Sabah, congestion is not a serious issue as the road because it is extensively used for the industrial activities including network in the area is not connected enough to even create logging, palm industries and quarries. Based on the survey, it is road congestion. The sight of gravel roads, mud path, and found that the road mostly had potholes, edge raveling, uneven surfaces, road rutting, congestion problems and limited parking potholes are the norm. -
Geological Heritage Features of Tawau Volcanic Sequence, Sabah
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Malaysia 56 (2010) 79 – 85 Geological heritage features of Tawau volcanic sequence, Sabah Sanudin Tahir, BaBa MuSTa & iSMail aBd rahiM Geology Programme, School of Science and Technology Universiti Malaysia Sabah, 88999 Kota Kinabalu, Sabah Abstract— Semporna Peninsula area was built up by thick Tertiary sequence of volcanic flows and volcaniclastic rocks. Early Cretaceous tholeiite basalt is the oldest sequence of volcanic rocks interpreted to have formed as part of a wide spread submarine volcano or volcanic complex within an MORB characterized by rapid volcanism. Miocene to Quaternary volcanisms from volcanic arcs contributed sequences of lava flows and pyroclastic rocks of dacitic, andesitic and basaltic rock types forming the major mountain chains of southeast Sabah. This Neogene volcanic sequence is dominated by low to high K-calc alkaline andesitic to dacitic volcanic rocks similar to modern island arc type. The subaerial of the latest lava flows of the region indicates volcanism consistent with tholeiitic basalt type. It has been accepted that during the Cenozoic, Sabah has been subjected to series of major tectonic regimes. A number of deformation phases have been determined include: Middle Eocene, Middle Miocene and Plio-Pleistocene phases of crustal movements of this region. The area appeared, therefore, to have been subjected to compressional tectonic regime throughout much of the late Cenozoic. However, the structural and sedimentological expression of these tectonic regimes varies considerably. It is suggested here that compressional episodes were interspersed with periods of active transtensional basin formation and that Late Miocene extension of the eastern part of Sabah which was related to compressional forces. -
