This study is qualitative in nature: a total of three focus group discussions were conducted among selected villagers from Kuala Tembeling, Kuala Tahan and Kundang Hulu villages. Four themes emerged from the analysis, namely sources of income, mode of transportation, less appreciation among the younger generation for the river, and the need for river development. Through the identification of this data, it is a hope that a broader understanding of the relationship between the local community and the river could facilitate river development programmes and strategies.

    © Lonely Planet 305 Terengganu Some places evoke a colour. In this case Terengganu is, far and away, blue. The rich robin’s- egg blue of big skies bending under clear, bright sunlight. The deep, royal blue of the ocean running behind ferries to tropical paradise. The turtle-dotted teal of shallow lagoons and horseshoe bays lapping the sugar sands in Pulau Perhentian (the Perhentian Islands). And the organic, vegetative green-blue of Lake Kenyir, vine-shrouded in its jungle womb. Blue is a cooling colour, and the general laid-back vibe of Terengganu makes for a cool- ing escape – something about the slow pace of life makes relaxed sighs some of the most common means of communication here. Most travellers come to the state for an island experience, and they’re in the right spot: some of the best beaches in the country can be found on Pulau Perhentian, Pulau Redang and Pulau Kapas. Divers in particular are well cared for here, but if you’re up for doing nothing at all, Terengganu will indulge your indolence. But don’t completely dismiss mainland Terengganu from your exploration. This is one of the most ethnically Malay states in the country, and you have the opportunity here to engage the Malay people at, simultaneously, their most traditional, their most evolving – note the waves of modernity replacing the traditional stilt houses of Kuala Terengganu, the capital, with air-con condos – and their most Islamic. They’re also, we’d note, at their most friendly when dealing with travellers who’ve wandered off the beach.

    Population Status of Tigers (Panthera Tigris) in a Primary Rainforest of Peninsular Malaysia

    POPULATION STATUS OF TIGERS (PANTHERA TIGRIS) IN A PRIMARY RAINFOREST OF PENINSULAR MALAYSIA By KAE KAWANISHI A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2002 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The success and completion of this 6-year University of Florida-Malaysia Tiger Project are due to support from many individuals and organizations. Foremost, I would like to thank my major professor, Dr. Mel Sunquist, and his partner, Fiona Sunquist, for their tireless guidance and encouragement. His generosity and courage to take on foreign students who always require more attentions and logistics deserve honor. Had it not been for the serendipity to have become acquainted with Fiona, none of this would have been realized. Fiona’s trademark feel-good-talks often helped me lift sunken spirits. I would also like to thank my committee members, Dr. John Eisenberg, Dr. Mike Moulton, Dr. Jim Nichols, and Dr. Scot Smith, for critiques and comments on the dissertation. Dr Nichols trained me on the science of population estimation. His patience with me was much appreciated.
