In this paper, the study is conducted to examine the pattern of monthly rainfall in Alor Setar, Kedah within ten years which is from 2008 to 2018. This paper considered a model based on real data that obtained from Department of Meteorology Malaysia. This study indicates that the monthly rainfall in Alor Setar has a seasonal and trend pattern based on yt vs t plotting, autocorrelation function and Kruskal Wallis Test for seasonality. The examined rainfall time-series modelling approaches include Naïve Model, Decomposition Method, Holt-Winter’s and Box-Jenkins ARIMA. Multiplicative Decomposition Method was identified as the best model to forecast rainfall for the year of 2019 by analysing the previous ten-year’s data (2008-2018). As a result from the forecast of 2019, October is the wettest month with highest forecasted rainfall of 276.15mm while the driest month is in February with lowest forecasted rainfall of 50.55mm.

A Gravity Survey of Perlis, Kedah and Penang
Geol. Soc. Malaysia, Bulletin 26, April 1990; pp. 13 - 20 A gravity survey of Perlis, Kedah and Penang ALAN J. BURLEY AND JAMALUDIN OTHMAN Geological Survey of Malaysia, P.O. Box 1015, 30820 Ipoh. Abstract: The results of a gravity survey of northwest Peninsular Malaysia are pre sented, forming the fIrst stage of a survey of the whole Peninsula. The aim is to obtain as uniform a coverage as possible, initially using 4WD vehicles and boats for transport. At a later stage it is anticipated that areas not otherwise accessible will be reached using a helicopter. The results can be largely explained in terms of the confIguration of granitic rocks. A steep gravity gradient follows approximately the boundary of the Main Range granite in a series ofen echelon northwest and northeast trending sections. The extent and steepness of the gradient along some sections implies steeply dipping contacts between granite and sediments extending to depths of a few kilometres. It is steepest along the section coinciding with the Bok Bak fault, for which there is some indication of a possible extension northwestwards into Perlis: here it could have influenced the deposition ofthe Tertiary Bukit Arang coal beds, which show a signifIcant gravity response. If there has been major lateral movement along this fault and/or faults parallel to it, a net sinistral displacement of about 30 kilometres is suggested by the gravity results. The Gunung J erai granite is shown to be much more extensive underground than at outcrop, and the results show that the Pulau Pinang, Kulim and Main Range granites are all connected at relatively shallow levels.

Turkish Online Journal of Distance Education-TOJDE October 2007 ISSN 1302-6488 Volume: 8 Number: 4
Turkish Online Journal of Distance Education-TOJDE January 2013 ISSN 1302-6488 Volume: 14 Number: 1 Article 10 EFFECTIVE LEARNING INTERACTION AS A PREREQUISITE TO SUCCESSFUL OPEN DISTANCE LEARNING (ODL): A Case study of Learners in the Northern State of Kedah and Perlis, Malaysia Hisham DZAKIRIA, PhD Azilah KASIM, PhD Abdul Halim MOHAMED, PhD Anne Althea CHRISTOPHER, PhD Universiti Utara Malaysia, MALAYSIA ABSTRACT The provision of ODL is now largely available in most part of the world, and is just a matter of choice for working adults to pursue. With the competing priorities of work, home, and school, adult learners everywhere desire a high degree of flexibility and accessibility. The structure of ODL provides learners with the greatest flexibility. It provides control over time, place and pace of education; however, learning at a distance is not without problems. Loss of student motivation due to lack of face-to-face (f2f) contact with tutors, peers and content; high startup costs, and lack of support are all barriers to the success of ODL. One important element of success factor for students attending ODL program is the level of interactivity within the student-tutor-content dyads. This paper looks at the issue of interactivity as reported in this research on students’ perspectives and experiences of ODL programs in the northern part of Malaysia. The study supported the widely held belief that a high level of interaction is desirable in ODL environment (Dzakiria, 2008, Dzakiria & Idrus, 2003; Rumble, 2000; Walker, 2002)) and positively affects the learning experiences. Recent technological advancements, allowing an increasing level of interaction between the interactivity dyads have implicated how teaching and learning should be in an ODL environment.

The Siamese in Kedah Under Nation-State Making
The Siamese in Kedah under nation-state making Keiko Kuroda (Kagoshima University) 1: Historical Background Kedah have ever been one of the tributary states of Siam. Siam had the tributary states in the Malay Peninsula until 1909. These tributary states were Malay Sultanate states that became Islamized in the 15th century. However, Ayutthaya, the Court of Siam, have kept the tributary relations with them, sometime with military force. Because these Malay states were important and indispensable port polities for Ayutthaya's trade network. Anglo-Siam Treaty of 1909 made the modern border between Siam and British Malaya. Satun, which was a part of Kedah, and Patani remained in Siam. And Kedah and others were belonging to British Malaya. This border was the result of political struggle between Government of Siam and British Malaya. However, Kedah had controlled wider area before this. The area spread over archipelago along the western coast of Peninsula near the Phuket Island. And Kedah had the characteristics that were different from other Siam tributary states on the eastern coast. In Kedah, many people could understand and speak Thai Language. The Influence of Thai was left well for the name of the places and the traditional entertainments as well. Then, there are people who speak Thai as vernacular at present. These Thai-speakers are " the Samsams " who are Malay Muslims, and the Siamese who are Thai Theravada Buddhists. In this paper, I attempt to reconstruct the historical experiences of the Siamese of Kedah from 19th century to present. The source of the paper is from the documents in the National Archives of Malaysia and data from my fieldwork in Kedah in 1990's.
