Since our migration to online version of the Journal, we have successfully elevated the Journal to higher level. The Journal readership has increased, reaching wider and international audience. The Journal is also gaining recognition from local and foreign scholars. Article submissions have increased three-fold and this year alone we are publishing 5 issues of the Journal, which is unprecedented. This issue also reflects the wider acceptance of the Journal. It includes articles not only from local scholars, but also from foreign scholars. We hoped that the inclusion of articles from foreign scholars would benefits local readers with knowledge of cases and experiences related to urban planning from other countries as well. I would like to thank the Journal Editorial Board and Secretariat for their untiring efforts in the publication of the Journal and also in successfully uplifting the Journal to higher level. Thank you. TPr. Hj Ihsan Zainal Mokhtar PRESIDENT (2017-2019) © 2017 by MIP vi PLANNING MALAYSIA: Journal of the Malaysian Institute of Planners VOLUME 15 ISSUE 3 (2017), Page 1 - 12 THE INTERPLAY OF SPATIAL POLICY, TRAVEL BEHAVIOUR AND AIR QUALITY IN ISKANDAR MALAYSIA Ariva Sugandi Permana1, Ahmad Nazri Muhamad Ludin2, & M. Rafee Majid3 1,2,3Department of Urban and Regional Planning, Faculty of Built Environment UNIVERSITI TEKNOLOGI MALAYSIA Abstract Iskandar Malaysia has been emerging as a centre of economic growth in the southern corridor of Malaysia. While the present spatial policy has emboldened the growth centre that inspires the urban development in the region to flourish, the spatial development has brought a substantial environmental consequence to urban areas. With the support of travel behaviour of the citizens as a catalyst, the interplay between spatial policy and urban air quality in the region becomes a major concern. This study began by undertaking spatial policy analysis at local and federal levels. Then, an origin-destination study was carried out to assess the travel behaviour of citizens and the concentricity or poly-centricity of the region as an eventual reflection of spatial policy. Based on the information on travel behaviour and number of vehicles in Iskandar Malaysia, the vehicle-kilometre travelled (VKT) was estimated as well as the carbon emission from the transport sector. An ethnographic survey was also conducted to understand the non- motorized travel behaviour of the citizens i.e. willingness to walk. This survey was to crosscheck and confirm the willingness

  • THE NEW ECONOMIC POLICY and the UNITED MALAYS NATIONAL ORGANIZATION —With Special Reference to the Restructuring of Malaysian Society—
    The Developing Economies, XXXV-3 (September 1997): 209–39 THE NEW ECONOMIC POLICY AND THE UNITED MALAYS NATIONAL ORGANIZATION —With Special Reference to the Restructuring of Malaysian Society— TAKASHI TORII INTRODUCTION N 1990, Malaysia duly completed its twenty-year New Economic Policy (NEP) which was launched in 1971. Though the NEP has been described as I an “economic” policy, its contents and implementation processes show that it went far beyond the scope of economic policy packages. In fact, policies in such noneconomic areas as education, language, culture, and religion have been formu- lated and implemented in close relationships with it. Consequently, the NEP has exerted major influences not only on Malaysia’s economy but on Malaysian society as a whole. From the point of view of the NEP’s stated objective, namely, “ to lift up the economic and social status of Malays,” the NEP has achieved signal successes, such as the creation of a Malay middle class and Malay entrepreneurs, most notably the new Malay business groups.1 A number of both positive and negative evaluations have been made about the NEP, which has had such a major impact on Malaysian society.2 These studies generally identify two basic characteristics of the NEP. –––––––––––––––––––––––––– This paper is part of the fruits of the research and investigation I conducted in Malaysia in 1991–93 as a visiting research fellow at the National University of Malaysia (Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia— UKM). I wish to express my gratitude to the Institute of Developing Economies for sending me out as its research fellow, the National University of Malaysia for accepting and helping me, and the UMNO Research Bureau and the New Straits Times Research Centre for giving me the opportunity to use their valuable archives.
