Adventure Tourism in Selangor: Explore, Experience and Enjoy! ADVENTURE TOURISM IN SELANGOR: EXPLORE, EXPERIENCE AND ENJOY! By Nurul Azlyna (CIFP,Bach. Of Acc (Hons), CMI) LET’S HIT THE ROAD Millions of people travel across the world every year and thus, making the tourism industry as a key role in the global economy. According to World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC), the industry accounted for 10.4% of global GDP and 319 million jobs, or 10% of total employment in 2018. Travellers travel with different purposes where some people travel for leisure or business while some travel due to specific interest such as medical or religion. Given the different purposes, tourism industry has been classified into various types to cater to the needs and preferences of all types of tourists. The following are the categories of tourism1: a. Leisure Under this purpose, travellers simply want to enjoy new experience of a destination and devoting their holiday to rest and relaxation. These tourists prefer to stay in some quiet and relaxed destination preferably at a hill resort, beach resort or island resort. b. Business The travellers’ main motive for travel is for work purpose such as attending a business meeting, conferences, conventions selling products, meeting clients. Business tourism is popularly known as MICE (Meetings, incentives, conferences, and exhibitions) tourism. c. Special Interest Interestingly, some people travel for special reasons such as religions, medical, education, hobbies and cultural. Under medical tourism for example, travellers go to places such as recommended specialist centre seeking for medical treatment. Meanwhile, the adventurous groups usually travel to spots that are popular for adventure activities such as bungee jumping or whale- 1 National Institute of Open Schooling watch. Going to undiscovered or non-commercialized destinations for more exquisite, thrilling and adrenaline-rush experiences is another choice to consider. This paper however focuses on adventure tourism, specifically in Selangor, Malaysia. It presents vacation spots in the states with various activities under the adventure tourism category. The objective of the paper is also to identify potential of activities that the state government and private entities may yet to discover. Based on the ‘Malaysia Tourist Profile 2018’ by Tourism Malaysia, majority of tourists visited Malaysia for holiday purpose. The profiling however does not present the purpose of visit for each state. Source: Tourism Malaysia ADVENTURE TOURISM IN SELANGOR: WHY NOT? ABOUT ADVENTURE TOURISM According to World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO), ‘adventure travel has become a cornerstone of the tourism experience’ as travellers are increasingly seeking authentic, rare and incomparable experiences. The global value of adventure tourism stood massively at USD 89 billion in 2010 as per study conducted by Adventure Travel Trade Association (ATTA), The George Washington University (GWU) and Xola Consulting. The study was repeated in 2013 and found that 42% of travellers departed on adventure trips, making the sector worth USD 263 billion—an increase of 195% in two years. Thus, it is unanimously important to understand the definition of adventure tourism and to identify relevant activities under the spectrum to allow the relevant stakeholders to explore, tap and promote the available opportunities. ATTA defines adventure tourism as a trip that includes least two of the following three elements: physical activity, natural environment and cultural immersion. Further, there are two main categories of adventure activities; hard adventure or soft adventure. ATTA has listed out adventure activities and its classification as follows: TYPES ACTIVITY SOFT HARD OTHERS 1.Archaeological Expedition X 2.Attending Local Festival/Fairs X 3.Backpacking X 4.Bird Watching X 5.Camping X 6.Canoeing X 7.Caving X 8.Climbing (Mountain/Rock/Ice) X 9.Cruise X 10.Cultural Activities X 11.Eco-Tourism X 12.Educational Programs X 13.Environmentally Sustainable X Activities 14.Fishing/ Fly-Fishing X 15.Getting To Know The Locals X 16.Hiking X 17.Horseback Riding X 18.Hunting X 19.Kayaking/Sea/White-Water X 19.Learning A New Language X 20.Orienteering X 21.Rafting X 22.Research Expeditions X 23.Safaris X 24.Sailing X 25.Scuba Diving X 26.Snorkeling X 27.Skiing/Snowboarding X 28.Surfing X 29.Trekking X 30.Walking Tours X 31.Visiting Friends/ Family X 32.Visiting Historical Sites X 33.Volunteering Tourism X Source: ATTA (2013) Source: Shukhrat Ismoiljonov SELANGOR: EXPLORING ADVENTURE TOURISM IN THE STATE Selangor is among the favourite destination among tourists, be it local or international thanks to its abundance attractions and offerings.

Business zakat is a type of zakat applied to the business which comply with the conditions and nisab of zakat in a certain state. Arising research problem was of the unsatisfying performance in collection of business income in spite of progress in zakat collection in Malaysia indicating an increase every year. Objective of this research is to comprehend compliance behaviour of business zakat in micro enterprise firms in Sabak Bernam district using Theory of Planned Behaviour introduced by Ajzen (1991). Four main factors which are factor of religion, factor of attitude towards behaviour, factor of subjective norms, and factor of perceived behavioural control were accounted as the main factors for the implemented theory. Technique of binominal logistic regression analysis was applied to test the model of compliance behaviour in business zakat. A number of 105 questionnaires were distributed to micro enterprise players in service sector in Sabak Bernam district and it was found that research results indicated that the model of this study was consistent with suggestion by planned behaviour theory. Factor of perceived behavioural control was the most influencing factor of compliance behaviour of business zakat (β = 2.493) followed by factor of religion (β = 1.163) and then by factor of attitude towards business zakat (β = 1.054).

  • 1 Chapter 1 Introduction As a Chinese Buddhist in Malaysia, I Have Been
    Chapter 1 Introduction As a Chinese Buddhist in Malaysia, I have been unconsciously entangled in a historical process of the making of modern Buddhism. There was a Chinese temple beside my house in Penang, Malaysia. The main deity was likely a deified imperial court officer, though no historical record documented his origin. A mosque serenely resided along the main street approximately 50 meters from my house. At the end of the street was a Hindu temple decorated with colorful statues. Less than five minutes’ walk from my house was a Buddhist association in a two-storey terrace. During my childhood, the Chinese temple was a playground. My friends and I respected the deities worshipped there but sometimes innocently stole sweets and fruits donated by worshippers as offerings. Each year, three major religious events were organized by the temple committee: the end of the first lunar month marked the spring celebration of a deity in the temple; the seventh lunar month was the Hungry Ghost Festival; and the eighth month honored, She Fu Da Ren, the temple deity’s birthday. The temple was busy throughout the year. Neighbors gathered there to chat about national politics and local gossip. The traditional Chinese temple was thus deeply rooted in the community. In terms of religious intimacy with different nearby temples, the Chinese temple ranked first, followed by the Hindu temple and finally, the mosque, which had a psychological distant demarcated by racial boundaries. I accompanied my mother several times to the Hindu temple. Once, I asked her why she prayed to a Hindu deity.
