This is to prevent them from polluting the environment and putting the people’s health at risk. History The e-waste collection system was developed in year 2012 in a JICA Project: “The Project for Model Development for e- waste Collection, Segregation and Transportation from Households for Recycling" whose short name is “E-Waste Alam Alliance Penang” A Pilot Project was planned to test the developed e-waste collection system in the Project. The Pilot Project was initiated from June 2012 until Mac 2013. The project was then continued by Shan Poornam Sdn Bhd as the main MRF and has totally changed to a new design and partnership. Continuous Project After the pilot project ended, Shan Poornam Metals as the authorised private-sector recycling infrastructure continues with the project through a partnership with Senheng Group starting from 11th December 2013. PENANGITES can now hand over their household electronic waste (e-waste) at Senheng outlets in exchange for cash vouchers. Household e-waste includes electrical and electronic appliances such as TV, radio, refrigerator, washing machine, air-conditioner, printer, mobile phone, computer, e-toys and other products using a battery or electrical cord. These items will then be collected by Shan Poornam Metals Sdn Bhd that specialises in handling both hazardous and non-hazardous waste.

Called BD2, it could pump up to 270 million litres of water per day (MLD) to serve 315,000 people living in the southern parts of the island. PBAPP senior chargeman Mohd Yusri Awang checking the reading of a pump at the newly opened Bukit Dumbar Pump Station 2 in Penang. Its service areas cover Gelugor, Batu Uban, Sungai Nibong, Bayan Baru, Relau, Sungai Ara, Batu Maung, Bayan Lepas, Permatang Damar Laut, Teluk Kumbar, Gertak Sanggul, Genting and Balik Pulau. Penang Water Supply Corporation Sdn Bhd (PBAPP) chief executive officer Datuk Jaseni Maidinsa said the RM11.9mil BD2 would complement the operations of the Bukit Dumbar Pump Station 1 (BD1) that had been in service since 1980. He said it would improve pumping efficiency of water from the Sungai Dua Water Treatment Plant on the mainland to southern areas of the island which were undergoing rapid socio-economic development. “Treated water from the Sungai Dua plant is delivered to Bukit Dumbar daily via twin submarine pipeline,” Jaseni said at the launching of BD2 on Sunday. He said BD2 would also reduce pumping costs to the Bukit Gedong Reservoir daily to support the treated water needs of Teluk Kumbar, Gertak Sanggul and Balik Pulau.

Prosedur analisis tekstur tanah menggunakan kaedah hidrometer. Empat daripada sembilan bangunan (44%) dikenal pasti sebgai tanah jenis liat pasir. Manakala lima daripada sembilan bangunan (56%) telah dikenal pasti sebagai tanah jenis gembur berpasir. Kata kunci: Coptotermes gestroi, Anai-anai, Tanah Liat Pasir, Tanah Gembur Berpasir, Kaedah Hidrometer Abstract: Nine soil samples from nine buildings infested with Coptotermes gestroi in Pulau Pinang, Malaysia, were tested for the type of soil texture. The soil texture analysis procedures used the hydrometer method. Four of nine buildings (44%) yielded loamy sand-type soil, whereas five of nine buildings (56%) contained sandy loam-type soil. Keywords: Coptotermes gestroi, Termites, Loamy Sand, Sandy Loam, Hydrometer Method Subterranean termites, especially of the genus Coptotermes, are a widespread insect pest in Southeast Asia (Abdul Hafiz & Abu Hassan 2009). These termites were reported as the most destructive subterranean termite in Thailand and Malaysia (Abdul Hafiz & Abu Hassan 2009, 2008; Kirton & Brown 2003). The subterranean termite is a social insect with a mysterious life cycle. With cryptobiotic life and constant underground movement, subterranean termites can strike unexpectedly anywhere and can cause serious damage to buildings and products containing cellulose (Kamble & Davis 2005).

  • Investigating Geographic Distribution of Colorectal Cancer Cases: an Example from Penang State, Malaysia

Tel: 60-12-501-8834. E-mail: [email protected] Received: July 9, 2013 Accepted: September 11, 2013 Online Published: November 29, 2013 doi:10.5539/ass.v9n17p38 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ass.v9n17p38 Abstract The map has widely been used to depict and disseminate information on the spatial distribution of various diseases, including cancer cases. Increasingly, population-based cancer data need to incorporate spatial information that enables various spatial and proximity analyses to be conducted whereby results can be graphically presented. Yet, disease maps as a communication form remain largely unexamined. This is probably due to the confidentiality of the disease cases and the cost of incorporating the spatial component in the database. In the state of Penang, Malaysia, although Penang Cancer Registry (PCR) collects and collates data of all cancer cases diagnosed in the state as well as cancer cases diagnosed elsewhere whose home address is given as a Penang address, geographical location is not included. Mapping of cases using information from PCR will give a fairly complete picture of spatial distribution of cancer cases from Penang State and clustering of cases can be readily evaluated.
