It had an uninterrupted view down a well-trimmed grassy slope towards Raffles residential college. The house had its own garden, meticulously maintained by the peon Mr. K. Krishnan, who had previously worked in the nearby botanical gardens. He had been sent by the Japanese army of occupation to work on the 'death railway' in Thailand, and upon return after the war had never been able to trace his wife and family. I was working as an oil company geologist in Trinidad when the offer of an assistant lectureship came with a request from the registrar Mr. Lewis that my services were urgently needed.

    The Needs of Sustainability Solid Waste Management in Perhentian Island, Terengganu Siti Aisyah Saat, University Malaysia Terengganu, Malaysia The European Conference on Sustainability, Energy & the Environment 2017 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract Malaysia is blessed with many idyllic tropical islands favoured by many an ecotourist. Perhentian Island, located in the South China Sea at the northeastern corner of Peninsular Malaysia, has been one of the favorites whose tourism activities have increased considerably. The recent annual tourist arrival for the island is about sixty thousands, compared to a local population of only one thousand three hundreds residing in the only village on the island. Located about 21 km offshore, the 15 km island has seen its number of resorts grow from five (~100 rooms) in 1985 to more than forty now (~1200 rooms ).With growth comes the problem of managing the solid waste generated by the island’s tourism industry. The large amount of wastes produced by tourist is a difficult problem for small islands particularly since it is typically generated over a short period, thereby often overloading existing disposal and treatment facilities. Onsite burying of solid waste that was practiced during its early days of tourism business is no longer suitable and sustainable due to land scarcity. The current practice of hauling the waste to be landfilled on the mainland 21 km away is viewed by many to be uneconomical and is putting unwanted stress on the fast-shrinking landfill space. The local authority administering the island is now looking for a better way of managing this waste. Therefore, protection of the environment from pollution is extremely important in small island, since aside from other reasons that are common to all countries, two important industries, tourism and fisheries, depend on a pristine environment.

The surveys are a continuation of a successful National Reef Check Survey Programme that has now run for five years. 2. The surveys were carried out by volunteers trained and certified in the global standard Reef Check method. Nearly 50 people were trained in 2011, adding to the base of volunteers who are participating in Reef Check Malaysia’s programmes. 10% of trainees were officers of the Department of Marine Parks Malaysia, reflecting growing interest from the Government in further improving management of Malaysia’s coral reefs.

  • A Study on Tuaran River Channel Planform and the Effect of Sand Extraction on River Bed Sediments
    Transactions on Science and Technology Vol. 4, No. 4, 442 - 448, 2017 A Study on Tuaran River Channel Planform and the Effect of Sand Extraction on River Bed Sediments Jayawati Montoi1#, Siti Rahayu Mohd. Hashim2, Sanudin Tahir1 1 Geology Programme, Faculty of Science and Natural Resources, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, Jalan UMS, 88400 Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, MALAYSIA. 2 Mathematic With Economic Programme, Faculty of Science and Natural Resources, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, Jalan UMS, 88400 Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, MALAYSIA. # Corresponding author. E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel: +6088-260311; Fax: +6088-240150. ABSTRACT River sand extraction is known as one of the main factors that induces the significant changes on river planform. This paper main objective is to study on the significance of planform changes on Tuaran River from 2003 to 2016 and sediment composition changes due to this activity. The study on channel planform focuses on four single wavelength channel bends which are located at the downstream of Tuaran River. Two meander features which are the channel width (w) and radius of curvature (Rc) were measured from digitized Google Earth satellite image year 2003, 2013, 2014 and 2016 and overlay with the Department of Survey and Mapping Malaysia (JUPEM) topographic map using Geographic Information System (GIS) software and georeferenced to World Geodetic System (WGS) 1984. Four sites which are located at the downstream of Tuaran River were selected to determine the river bed sediments composition. Three of the four sites are located at the sand extraction area whilst one site is a controlled area with no sand extraction activity. River bed sediments were collected and the sediments composition was analyzed using Mann Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests to determine the composition difference between the areas and the inner parts of the river.
