All Rights Reserved. 2 This dissertation titled Unfolding Time to Configure a Collective Entity: Alternative Digital Movies as Malaysian National Cinema by HSIN-NING CHANG has been approved for Interdisciplinary Arts and the College of Fine Arts by Erin Schlumpf Visiting Assistant Professor of Film Studies Elizabeth Sayrs Interim Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT CHANG, HSIN-NING, Ph.D., April 2017, Interdisciplinary Arts Unfolding Time to Configure a Collective Entity: Alternative Digital Movies as Malaysian National Cinema Director of dissertation: Erin Schlumpf This dissertation argues that the alternative digital movies that emerged in the early 21st century Malaysia have become a part of the Malaysian national cinema. This group of movies includes independent feature-length films, documentaries, short and experimental films and videos. They closely engage with the unique conditions of Malaysia’s economic development, ethnic relationships, and cultural practices, which together comprise significant understandings of the nationhood of Malaysia. The analyses and discussions of the content and practices of these films allow us not only to recognize the economic, social, and historical circumstances of Malaysia, but we also find how these movies reread and rework the existed imagination of the nation, and then actively contribute in configuring the collective entity of Malaysia. 4 DEDICATION To parents, family, friends, and cats in my life 5 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my advisor, Prof.

  • The Adoption of Industrialised Building System (IBS) Construction in Malaysia: the History, Policies, Experiences and Lesson Learned
    The adoption of Industrialised Building System (IBS) construction in Malaysia: The history, policies, experiences and lesson learned Mohd Idrus Din, Noraini Bahri, Mohd Azmi Dzulkifly, Mohd Rizal Norman, Kamarul Anuar Mohamad Kamar *, and Zuhairi Abd Hamid Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB) Malaysia * Corresponding author ([email protected]) Purpose Industry and government in Malaysia coined the term industrialised building system (IBS) to describe the adoption of construction industrialisation, mechanisation, and the use of prefabrication of components in building construction. IBS consists of precast component systems, fabricated steel structures, innovative mould systems, modular block systems, and prefabricated timber structures as construction components. Parts of the building that are repetitive but difficult – and too time consuming and labour intensive to be casted onsite – are designed and detailed as standardised components at the factory and are then brought to the site to be assembled. The construction industry in Malaysia has started to embrace IBS as a method of attaining better construction quality and productivity, reducing risks related to occupational safety and health, alleviating issues for skilled workers and dependency on manual foreign labour, and achieving the ultimate goal of reducing the overall cost of construction. The chronology of IBS-adoption in Malaysia goes back a long way, reaching back to the 1960s, when precast elements were adopted in the building industry to address the problem of an acute housing shortage. However, the introduction of IBS was never sustained beyond this period. As a result of the failure of early closed-fabricated systems, the industry is now avoiding changing its construction method to IBS. Some of the foreign systems that were introduced during the late 1960s and 1970s were also found to be unsuitable in Malaysia’s climate and not very compatible with social practices.

The Construction Industry Development Board [CIDB] embraced the IBS method to enhance productivity and building quality, reduce wastage on site, increase occupational safety and health, and reduce overall cost of construction. Currently, most of the IBS project developments in Malaysia are still adopting traditional procurement system. How- ever, traditional procurement system has been criticised for its fragmented procedure to project delivery in terms of integration and collaboration of the project team. As a result of that problem, a number of issues have recently arisen such as reworks, time delay, rising costs, lack of communication and coordination, and wastages. The purpose of this research is to identify challenges of the current procurement system and to investigate the possibilities of implementing innovative type of procurement method for IBS im- plementation. A deductive research approach was adopted. Reviewing relevant literature before embarking into any academic re- search project is one way of exploring a known theory in a holistic manner.

Introduction The Petronas Towers were designed to be the centrepiece of a larger complex called the Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC), a mixed-use development with a site area of 14.15 acres, which includes the towers, two other office towers, underground parking and service facilities. The project site is well located in the heart of the commercial district of the city, the ‘Golden Triangle’. Each of the twin towers is eighty-eight storeys high and contains 218,000 square metres of floor space. Rising 452 metres, the towers were certified the world’s tallest buildings by the Council of Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat in 1996. The two towers are connected by a sky bridge at the forty-first and forty-second floors – the sky lobby levels – to facilitate inter-tower communication and traffic. A multi-storey shopping and entertainment galleria connects the office towers at their bases, integrating the entire complex. Other public functions within the complex include the Petroleum Discovery Centre, an art gallery, an 865- seat concert hall and a multimedia conference centre. II. Contextual Information A. Historical background In early 1981 the Malaysian Government decided to move the Selangor Turf Club and its horse-racing track from the heart of the city to the periphery and to redevelop the site to meet the demands of urban and economic growth. The site, occupying 100 acres of land in a burgeoning economic catchment area with access to the city‘s main ring road, offered an ideal location for the development of a new city centre that would reinforce Kuala Lumpur‘s emerging status as an international city in the twenty-first century.

  • TRADITIONAL MALAYSIAN BUILT Rorms
    TRADITIONAL MALAYSIAN BUILT roRMS: A STUDY or THE ORIGINS, MAIN BUILDING TYPES, DEVELOPMBHT or BUILDING roRMS, DESIGN PRINCIPLES AND THE APPLICATION or TRADITIONAL CONCEPTS IN MODERN BUILDINGS Esmawee Haji Endut A thesis submitted to fulfil the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Department of Architecture University of Sheffield November 1993 I TRADITIONAL MALAYSIAN BUILT FORMS: A STUDY OF THE ORIGINS, MAIN BUILDING TYPES, DEVELOPMENT OF BUILDING FORMS, DESIGN PRINCIPLES AND THE APPLICATION OF TRADITIONAL CONCEPTS IN MODERN BUILDINGS SUMMARY The architectural heritage of Malaysia consists of Malay, Chinese and colonial architecture. These three major components of traditional Malaysian architecturel have evolved in sequence and have overlapped from the beginning of the fifteenth century. These building traditions ceased with the emergence of a new architectural movement which was brought into the country in the twentieth century after the nation's independence. This new phase was the development of modern architecture and during this period, many buildings in Malaysian cities were built in the International Style, which was popular in many western countries. The continual process of adopting western styles and images has resulted in buildings which disregard the environmental and climatic factors of Malaysia and this has led to the problem of identity in the development of Malaysian architecture. It was in view of this problem that this research was initiated, coupled with an interest to investigate the underlying principles of traditional built 1 For the purpose of this study, 'traditional architecture' or 'traditional built forms' refer to the early building traditions in Malaysia before independence which includes the Chinese and colonial buildings.

Some aspire to become global cities and wield significant influence on the rest of the world by amassing power, capabilities and resources. Others build on their regional presence and become vibrant nodes within a larger socio-economic system within a country. Urban infrastructure is undoubtedly one of the greatest challenges facing the world today. With more than half of the global population already huddled into cities that – together – make up less than two percent of the planet’s land cover, the pressure now being placed on urban infrastructure is unprecedented. All around the world, we see inspirational and innovative examples of city projects that are sure to transform not only the urban setting, but also the way the world’s urban populations interact with their infrastructure, their governments, their cities and the environment. This publication demonstrates Malaysia and in particular the Greater Kuala Lumpur as an investor destination which embody the spirit of innovation from the angle of scale, feasibility, technical or financial complexity, innovation and impact on society.
